In 2010, Caitlin Moran wrote that British Prime Minister David Cameron resembled "a slightly camp gammon robot" and "a C3PO made of ham" in her 13 March column in The Times.

Well done, you can use a dictionary so use it to see the difference between "mainly" and "exclusively". Like I said, you're kind of giving yourself awya here, if you're offended by a term used to describe racists. Not a good look for you

it's not always racists.. but it is always white men. and mainly middle aged.. but some times younger and sometimes older.
 
Gammon is a pejorative term popularised in British political culture since the 2010s. The term refers to the colour of a person's flushed face when expressing strong opinions, which purportedly resembles the type of pork of the same name. It is characterised in this context by the Oxford English Dictionary as occurring "in various parasynthetic adjectives referring to particularly reddish or florid complexions". By 2018, the term had become popularised in British political discourse to describe right-wingers and Brexiteers.

Gammon isn't a race, so how can it be racist?

I mean.. lots of racist terms are not racist.. it's kind of what makes them racist terms tbh

the reason it isn't racist.. is because light skinned people use it towards light skinned people.

you could make an argument for it being racist if somebody with dark skin used it.. but it's not really gonna fly is it.

Ive been mainly exclusive with all the women in my life
 
I was out walking the dog today and she got jumped by another dog who continually tried to hump her.
I was running around panicking. A bloke ran up with a broom handle and shoved it up the other dogs backside.
The other dog ran off yelping and crying .
The man looked at me and said I know that dog it likes giving it but can't take it. ;) :unsure:😆
