Thousands of dads are left in shock as DIY paternity tests soar. Up to 30,000 tests are being performed every year, says Alphabiolabs. In the UK about 750,000 babies are born every year. Feminists want the test to be illegal without the written consent of the mother.

Mother-of-two, 40, falsely branded a neighbour a sex offender because he 'made too much noise building a guinea pig hutch in his garden'. It seems for many women if they do not get their way they make a false sex allegation knowing a man is not protected by the law.

Where are all the feminists complaining about the sexist air conditioning now?

[–]SeeEmmDee 7 points8 points9 points 9 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

In countries where AC is common I guess.

[–]WaitWhoMe 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

They don't have air conditioning in the UK??

Cuz when I was in nearby Ireland, any place you'd wear a suit and air conditioning.

[–]SeeEmmDee 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Generally not. I mean, why would they? Usually it doesn't stop raining.

[–]DevilishRogue 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Most of the buildings are pretty old. Air conditioning, if it is installed at all, was installed after market and is generally unfit for purpose.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Got reminded today at work that I wasn't allowed to wear shorts or anything revealing my shoulders.

The ladies next room were in dresses, ofc.

Temperatures are due to peak at 34C

How is 34 degrees a heatwave lmfao?

[–]number4ty7 25 points26 points27 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

You're not from the UK are you?

[–]Meyright 18 points19 points20 points 9 years ago (12 children) | Copy Link

Many buildings in northern europe are not equiped with air conditioning. On top of that the climate is different, i've heard the humidity is higher, so 34C may feel different in the uk than in texas e.g. And on top of that people are simply not adapted to such temperatures.

[–]DoubleALight 9 points10 points11 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Can confirm, a UK heatwave feels much hotter for a multitude of reasons, it's generally speaking more humid here than in say Portugal or Spain, also we're not used to the temperature going above 25C on regular hot days, combine that with high pollen counts, which for people with Hayfever, drains the ever living shit out of them, and it's a recipe for disaster.

Also, air-con is a myth in the UK, sort of like Big Foot, or England winning a football trophy.

[–]CountVonVague 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

wait so theres a heatwave in the UK and Death Valley soonish?

Not in TX, But all around Australia, mainly Up North (Darwin/Cairns)

[–]Wswanson001 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

Hell, that's a spring day in Texas, especially around Houston. I live in SC, humidity is a hell of a lot higher here. Nobody goes home for a heatwave

[–]Lethn 3 points4 points5 points 9 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

And on top of that people are simply not adapted to such temperatures.

I'd say this is the most likely one, sure, you guys in America may think that's really fucking low but then you'll freeze your arses off as we regularly see temperatures of 16c and below when it's winter. I'm probably one of the only people in my country that actually enjoys the cold though, the 25 degree weather I've been dealing with has been ending at last.

As for the whole issue of dress codes, yeah I think it's always been a joke. Not only because of biological differences but of course one of the reasons feminists have to deal with the horror of being cold in summer with the AC on is because men will be having to turn it up to compensate for the clothing they're wearing which will be making them a lot hotter than the women in the building.

Feminists never think about that though do they?

[–]Wswanson001 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Cold weather? Been there: Minot AFB, North Dakota. -20F with a -60 windchill. Grew up military. Born in England, pretty much bounced from one extreme to the other.

Honestly tho, the only time heat actually played a role in my work environment was in the military. Above 90 was a red flag day. Extra breaks and water. Above 100 was black flag, outside details suspended.

[–]Lethn 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago* (0 children) | Copy Link

Sensible, I remember reading an article about how an SAS trainee died during one of these types of mini-heatwaves we've got now. While SAS training obviously has to be tough, it was so damn obvious that it was down to the fact they probably didn't give him enough water and so on so he could cope with the extra heat.

I'm terrible in hot weather with anything, you put me in freezing temperatures though and I'm absolutely giddy while everyone else suffers. People in my country are always constantly complaining about the cold :P weird how it all works.

[–]Dancing_Anatolia 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I lived in Oklahoma for 7 years. Nothing is hot or cold to me anymore. 100F summers, 0F winters. And at least one tornado wherever you live, every year.

[–]levelate 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

if you got half an inch of snow, it would shut down.

the entire world is not all the same.

[–]Wswanson001 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

That's true. My school bus had a snow plow on it. (Superior, WI). And I've watched "Texans on Ice". Either way, I find it interesting that as a people, we can adapt to just about any extreme. But as an individual we can't.

[–]WaitWhoMe 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I don't disagree, but FWIW, Houston hovers close to 90% humidity. It was built on a swamp. Dallas is a bit more tolerable. El Paso is actually comfortable.

[–]McFeely_Smackup 1 point2 points3 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

where do you live that 95 F doesn't qualify as hot?

[–]WaitWhoMe 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I'm from New Mexico.

It counts as summer.

[–]McFeely_Smackup 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's it about that hot in January?

That's pretty fucking hot dude, no matter where you are.
