All true, but he's often a brilliant illustration of the old adage about being so "open minded" that your brain falls out.
What a load of shit, he has his opinion but will hear people out.

I recommend his podcast to anyone with half a brain.

It will open uour mind to many difforent subjects and perspectives.

His latest one with James hettfield and henry Rollins where great.

I'll still give him a listen when Chael Sonnen's on

Sent from mTalk
You would be better of letting Chael talk to himself, watching Tito choke him out was priceless.

The scary thing is he is getting 11million downloads a month.

He should run for world domination.
 
I was just rereading the original 40000th post thread.

April 2012

You were there manureid and you were there finbarr and you to toto (I mean TheFVK )

****.

5 years.

Portia did make some great points about blokes not knowing much about footy in that post you only have to read a game day thread to know that.

We all got educated that day and for some of us neanderthals the education continues through people like Portia and the more educated and evolved posters amongst us. Even our resident 12 year old is socially aware and knows his stuff and the difference between what is a joke and what is offensive to potential readers of what we all post on a daily (or in feels case every few moments) basis. I can't claim to take the moral high ground on any issues as many of us can't, wont or don't, but I would like to think when I get it wrong I'll cop it sweet. I'm not pointing the finger at anyone I just think we are all better (or if not slightly better educated on trans issues) people than we were on that day in April 2012. And that is thanks to one person having the courage to do what she did. I would hate to lose her over what happened today. We as a board would be poorer for it. Those podcasts (no offence Macca19 and FishingRick04 ) certainly won't be as good.

Peace out fellow heathens.
Thanks for directing me to that thread Eddie Dingle it's amazing Portia I know I'm 5 years too late but that is the best post I've ever read, and I'm sure it will be the best I'll ever read.

I'm biased but the Hetfield one was great. 20 minutes about beekeeping, who saw that coming?

Well just went over the back posts, mmmmmmm its always going to be very hard to have a open forum without offending people.

We should try not to take things to personly and use these times to educate.

We all hve things that put a bee in our bonit .

I agree with all of this but... it's also what disappoints me most. There seems to be a focus on the negative, which IMO is in the minority. When the reality is, in this online community, the BF Port Board, the acceptance of Portia is overwhelmingly positive.

I read the original post the day it was posted and shifted my thinking of Porthos to Portia without so much as a blink. It gave me an insight into a life experience that I hadn't really ever considered. It's broadened my thinking and from what I see posted here, the majority have experienced the same.

For those not familiar with The Merchant of Venice, I highly recommend reading up on the character that Portia took her name from. It gives you an insight into her deliberate and complex intellect.

It would be a significant loss for our community to lose her voice, her insight and her humour.
I just wish she would focus on how much positive impact she has had on us mere mortals.
