I really have no need to back track. A bag on the head is not a gender specific term. The fact that a few ‘challenged’ individuals like Gladys or Roxanne choose to blow the context of an argument into something it isn’t doesn’t really concern me. If I suggested that Bernie Moffatt put a bag on his head (he most certainly should) that wouldn’t lead to claims misogyny. 

You’re making it worse

No I’m not I’m pointing out what absolute crap you and others have said above to try to create an argument. Wanting to silence someone by putting a bag over their head is not gender specific. Much as you might try to grasp at straws.

Sounds fairly gender-specific to me.

 

Because the subject matter was a woman. If I was talking about Moffatt I’d have said he needs a bag on his head. Would you prefer I use gender neutral pronouns? You don’t seem to like those from other posts you’ve made on here.

To an older generation, the saying was usually used in derogatory fashion when referring to a woman's attactiveness and whether one would have sex with her. You know this. And I knew how you meant it too- and I wouldn't describe the context as misogynist, to be fair...

You've answered your question in one paragraph.

You’re the pensioner mate. I know what I said and it would apply equally to a man or a woman to most people I know no matter how much people want to try to suggest otherwise. When will Jarndyce be along to troll me as well?
