Men, men and more men.

You have seen all the photo's from the refugee centres, the refugee boats.....its a massive crowd of men.

The BBC or similar will visit the Jungle at Calais and televise an interview with a 'strong independent single mother'' and what does she represent ? 0.001% of the residents at the camp ?

Twas ever thus, observe any of the crowd photo's from the 1950's and the Windrush generation.....a boatload of young men.

And before the usual suspects accuse me of racism, we get a similar scenario of white men travelling from places like Eastern Europe. Plumbers, electricians & the like. Many of these wire money back to the wife & kids in Budapest/Krakow wherever.

OxfordReference.com defines prejudice as ''Any attitude held towards a person or group that is not justified by the facts.'' And so to say that a predominantly male group is demonstrably 'predominantly male' is less prejudiced-opinion and more empirical-fact. No doubt there are many fine upstanding young men therein.

It does pose some questions :

- where are all their women ? back in the home country ? in a polygamous marriage or all single ?

- how will the fabric of society in Western Europe be if there are 110 young men for every 100 young women ?

- who voted for this arrangement ?

- are all these arriving fellas the remnants of a polygamy problem back in their home country ? or have they left a wife & kids behind ?

- are there villages back in the home country that have lost all their men ?

- has sociology proven a predominantly male society to also be a violent society ? From the American Wild West of the Goldrush to A modern squaddie town in the UK. Is London 2020 more violent than London 1920 ?

- The grooming gangs in the North of England, where were their wives, sisters, female cousins when all the mayhem was happening ?

- When the Goths, Visigoths & Huns landed on Rome...they brought their women with them. What would the Western Romans make of modern Western Europe ?

- 1946 Russia was a society of women, certainly any place near Stalingrad. How would that society compare to society in Sweden Today ?

- other

Please keep the discussion respectful with a potentially emotive topic. The main theme here is Gender Equality or the lack thereof.

Windrush is celebrated.

There are good people within every group but we never needed mass immigration after the war and non European immigration has been nothing but a burden ever since.

It's a discussion that the progressives always try to shut down.

This is an interesting article and something I was unaware of until I was working there. At the time the British government gave the Mirpuris the opportunity to work in the U.K. ( presumably like Windrush) many took up the offer but many more did not and were relocated to other parts of pakistan

I cannot answer that question fully, nor generalise from isolated incidents.

But certainly the scientists have found some interesting Gender-based evidence from the Bronze Age. Meet some of your ancestors.....

Your reaction certainly would be positive Tom.

Europeans haven't caused the problems.....though in general immigration needs to go in reverse.

But that needed to happen decades ago.
