"Fireman" Sam

[Cockney Mackem]

In fairness it's the London Fire Brigade that brought it up.

They're literally the PC Brigade

Anyway iirc it’s Miss Rabbit who drives the fire engine in Peppa Pig. She does all the jobs.

Peppa Pig and Fireman Sam accused of sexism by London Fire Brigade - ffs

I guess the same people didn't watch the episode of Peppa Pig where every single person in the fire fighting team were all women then.

I did.
A f***ing million times.

Can't wait to watch it some more when the twins get old enough. FUCK!

Surely a male firefighter is a fireman and therefore Fireman Sam is correct?

It is. But by having that title it's putting girls off from joining the fire brigade. Keep up ffs.

Poor Postman Pat next, then Bananaman, then Superman. The list goes on surely? Poor Man Utd and Man City will have to rebrand at this rate, I hope they haven't printed too much merchandise!

Believe it or not there was a f***ing crazy American feminist on the news not long ago wanting all words with with 'man' in banned.

Nope. It hasn't been correct for 3 decade apparantly. When we had left wing luvvie Maggie Thatcher running the country.

Fireman sounds like someone who should have a film in phase 4 of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

Is PC Brigade the name of the policeman in Balamory who was knocking off the teacher?

I’m perfectly comfortable with the term firefighter, just like police officer. But surely it’s policeman/policewoman and fireman/firewoman when talking about an individual and police officer / firefighter when talking about the profession as a whole.

 

[vinegar hill]

I think that bird who runs the show should just forget all this sexist shite and just concentrate on fighting fuckin fires.

The catch is its promoting a male firefighter. And thus stopping girls from joining.
