Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 Can someone tell me why travellers were given the "p***y" moniker? When ever someone says "p***y" I've always wondered why they were called that? It's like Black Americans calling White Americans "CRACKERS" Where does that come from? Whip cracking or something? I always understood that it was a reference to cracked corn, a dietary staple of the rural, poor whites. Ohhh is that why? Thanks for that bab Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Skinny 29 Posted January 19, 2011 Report Share Posted January 19, 2011 I have a number of issues with the whole concept of travellers. They claim to be victims of racism yet they discourage marriage with those not of their own. I have to wonder with this is mind how small has the gene pool become and will there be genetic ilnesses within the travelling community like has been seen before in royal family trees. Also I have been under the impression that there is a culture of non conformity in the Travelling community with regards to the laws of the land and paying taxes. How can the tax man witness a wedding csoting thousands bit not wonder where the money has come from to oay for it. I think people get there backs up about travellers because the rest of us have to follow the rules of society while the travelling community does as it pleases. I also would question the rights of the women in particular they seem to be suppressed and I dont agree with what seem to me to be arranged marriages. As for the whole dog thief thing well i reckon as many dogs are stolen by regular folk than by travellers that not to say that I thonk travellers would not I have watched many interviews and they refer to settled people as country people gorgers that we are stupid and in turn deserve to be robbed if there is racism and bigotry towards travellers then there is certianly plenty that comes from them too. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My old boxing trainer is from a Traveller family and is a real good bloke. He'd let the regular lads train for nothing if they didn't have the money that week, and when you'd try and pay him back he'd tell you to put the money back in your pocket. He's got a real fierce temper and even in his 60's he'd fight like a man in his 20's lol. He really looked after his lads though, a good bloke. That's not to say I think all Travellers are innocent victims of racism. I personally wouldn't trust the majority of the ones that I've met. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
