@MajorRage i don't think the attitudes changed, more we moved on from straight abuse to trying to have a grown up conversation about it. We can go back to the name calling if you want kiwihater

@mariner4life You don't think it's changed? I guess you are a dim-witted dumb arse Queenslander these days ...
read again hater, i said it had changed, but not because you piped up.
Do we still have the :NTA emoticon available ... ?
I'm not picking on anybody, I just think that this is not necessarily such a shit idea from stuff. Everybody learns a damn site more from criticism than praise.
An although I certainly acknowledge that the stuff being pointed out in NZ happens in other countries, it doesn't make it any less shit that it's happening at home.
Do people think 8 year old Michael in Morrinsville who got his arse kicked today and his lunch money stolen by a bigger boy trying to prove he was tough (proving the opposite to all mature people) takes solace that Mikael in Minsk has the same issue in his country?
Look, I can see why people got up in arms, as some of the shit spouted was clearly that. But I still think it's a worthwhile exercise.

Routine sexual violence is an integral part of rugby culture? What the fucking fuck? Where was I when all this was going on?
@MN5 I believe it's Dr Network News.
On the block?

@mariner4life That only ever happened at the cricket club.

Which is the same as the Rugby club where you're from bro.
They do have Panhead on tap though so that earns two massive thumbs up from yours truly.

I thought someone would have posted this earlier. I guess we've all been too busy bashing fags who aren't white and don't like rugby. So much truth in this article.... NEW ZEA-LAND....NEW ZEA-LAND ( to the tune of U S A.....U S A )

Goddamn, I am sick to death of the 'no openly gay All Black' line.
Who ANY professional sportsman spends his nights with is no one's business but his own.
(Could you imagine the pressure? Not only do they have to perform on the field, but sportsmen are already given the job as role models for the portion of deadbeats around the country. Imagine being hounded by the social justice fuckfaces to be the gay role model too. No peace. No private life. Ugh.)

What an absolute shower of an article. It looks like she met and experienced only the worst that NZ had to offer. Either that or the article is typical dirty clickbait

Type a colon then start typing "thinking" then it should pop up by the time to get to the first "i"

I saw the headline for that article on Stuff yesterday, assumed it was one of her 'series' so decided to continue banging my head into the wall instead of reading it.
