I've never had a calendar in the shed before. However the minute some feminist expresses outrage at the practice, I'm going to rush out and buy 30 to plaster over the walls.
Modern Feminism = gross hypocrisy.
Anything I can do to wind them up and then laugh at their bigotry, count me in.

We have been told we can’t even have family pictures on our desks at work Imagine the furore if there was a wall calendar with pictures of the Makita girls..

I have no problem with Calendars in my shed...my wife does photography and a large part of her portfolio is Fine Art Nudes and she orders a couple each year with her photos.
So not only does she not have a problem...she creates the Nude calendars for me.
If someone comes into my shed and has a whinge , I direct them to my wife....or to the corridor outside my workshop...her nude pics are on all the walls as well.

It's a tough one.
These days you see more female cabinetmakers and more females in the surrounding trades as well, i can see how they can get offended.
But it works both ways, they can't complain that good looking skippy girls in calendars is wrong and then think shirtless firemen calendars are fine.
I don't have a calendar in my workshop, the only time i bothered was when Lie Nielsen use to send one.
tool calendars wins in my workshop.

rustynail,
We have a very clear demarcation in our house.......
Photos & Bonsai Plants are all her area.
Work to pay the bills, woodwork & renovations are mine.
She constantly has run ins with Facebook Admin about her being banned for showing nipples so if anybody has something to say about her pics, she will let you know about it.
I just tell them to mind their own business but if they wanted to persist, I point them to the author....one of the sisterhood. It takes the wind out of the "typical male" jibe.
My wife's work is art not titillation. It's more about shape & context than subject matter.

No demarcation here. If either of use needs a hand we get it. Worked well for 40 years, see no need to change.
Had the pleasure of training two pretty young lasses in the trade. They said the reason they liked working for me was because I wasn't a sexist pig... Just a pig.

21st January 2018, 04:37 PM #26Sorry the images should not be used. No safety gear is visable. I would not like to think what happens when shavings get in the tops of clothing.
Hope no one is offended by the above.Last edited by Ausworkshop; 21st January 2018 at 04:39 PM. Reason: adding original quote in reply

I looked at this earlier and it 11 guests browsing, now it has 12. To the guests - This is not a reflection of most of the forum. If you like this thread and want more discussions like it then there is no point in joining and if you don't then don't be put off.

Yes, please don't be put off, we wouldn't want you to go to lumberjocks instead. Too many guys walkin around over there in bulging Y fronts from their recent visit here as guests!
