No one will define it, as defining yourself as anti-woke is literally saying “I hate gay people, trans people, black people and women” and don’t take my word for it, per the dictionary:
“aware of and actively attentive to important societal facts and issues (especially issues of racial and social justice)”

For an alleged alpha non woke male who claims to photograph fit models in their lingerie you make a lot of comments about other men's penises.

That one departed poster was right, he truely is a dork
I suspect this plays out on all levels, and across countries:
"Here’s how it works: Minor college campus controversies involving diversity and/or free speech get breathlessly reported by the right-wing press, laundered into the mainstream by click-hungry neutral outlets, and eventually become fodder for breathless takes from conservatives and moderate liberals about the supposed authoritarianism of Kids Today and their “woke” ideology. The cycle uses a few absurd-sounding cases to create a sense of crisis about the state of American college campuses, in complete contradiction of both the aggregate data and sometimes even the basic facts of the campus controversy in question."

One of the most famous incidents of campus outrage was totally misrepresented

Everything we think about the political correctness debate is wrong
Support for free speech is rising, and is higher among liberals and college graduates.

When you talk about liberals, do you mean left leaning types? I only ask because in Australia the Liberal party is the equivalent of the UK tories, so I often get confused.We all know what the Right/Right wing press represent its the Left however who should know better when they're meant to represent all the good in the world yet how often do they actually practice what they preach ? You see some of the thuggish antics in this very CA forum by self proclaimed Liberals ?!
Its this self entitled behaviour and lack of self awareness in the new breed of Lefties that brings @ForeverBlue92 out in hives.
Old traditional Labour voters / socialists I have plenty of time for. The newer shouty shouty wokey types who claim to hold the keys to the kingdom whilst they do nothing but sin not so much.
Also, how would you define woke? You seem to use it as an insult quite often, so just wondering what "woke" means to you?

Who says I'm an "alpha male" pal ? Thats an assumption you're making.
Correct I've photographed for lingerie amongst many other commerical companies in the past as thats my job.
Whats wrong with talking about a phallus ? You a little insecure champ ? lol

If there weren't prying eyes around the place I would define anything you wanted me to define my friend as you have asked in a cordial manner.
I dont acknowledge abusive people I'm sure you can appreciate that

Yes mate. There is a difference between being a Liberal and being Woke.
Yes the Right Wing will often call anyone who is a Liberal "woke" due to the similarities in beliefs but they're different imo.

Have you been bragging about taking pictures of ladies in their gruds?
That’s some dodgy behaviour right there

Someone asked what line of work do I do and I told them (same as I take photos of coffee tables for furniture stores).
If thats "bragging" then fair enough.

Oh right, I just assumed you thought you were an alpha male. Thanks for clarifying that you're not. It's pretty obvious to be honest, but always nice to get confirmation.
On the subject of clarification, rest assured I'm not judging you on your predilection with other men's penises, or indeed the subject of masturbation that you're so keen on discussing. It's not something I'd find appropriate to discuss on a football themed website, but you do you.
While you're in such a chatty mood, and presumably not hiding behind hyperbole as usual, can you please clarify what you mean when you use the words 'woke', 'culture wars' and 'prying eyes around the place'?
Finally it should be 'that's my job', as in this context the word is a contraction of that is. Except it's not, you lying meff x
