OK, let's break this down.

1. Article from back in May reporting on something from last year
2. Private business makes decision, without any pressure from the Scottish Parliament
3. Bad OP

How can gingerbread be a man when people keep telling me that being a man means having XY chromosomes? Gingerbread doesn't have chromosomes.

D-does it?

[Valrifell]

Does the gingerbread man live in a house of his flesh or is he made of his house?

The gingerbread man wants to scream, but it cannot. For it does not know, and it has no mouth.

It has no mouth because I forgot to put a mouth in! ><

From the topic title, I know this is going to be it.

Gingerbread Person, Man, Woman... doesn't matter, really. As long as they are delicious!

Must we really jam in political correctness into a delicious treat? Please don't.

There's been a slew of these lately, so as a reminder:

Threads whose opening posts consist of nothing more than a single question/line of text, OR a link (or C&P'ed text), OR just directs to a poll question are considered spam. This being a discussion forum and to prevent directionless threads from developing more spam than my supermarket's shelves, we ask that OPs put a wee bit more work into their OPs.

Please tell us what YOU think, and why.

For example:

Which is better, squirrels or llamas?

No.

Which is better, squirrels or llamas? I like llamas.

Still no.

Which is better, squirrels or llamas? I like llamas because they are just so fuzzy and silly looking. While squirrels have been known to take on motorcycle riders and even the police, you cannot state that a squirrel is in any way better than the joy that is a llama.

Much better, this passes muster.
