Former Olympic champion Victoria Pendleton reveals macho MAMILS tryto overtake her
She has tattoos as well - obviously has low self-esteem!
QUOTE: Olympic champion Victoria Pendleton has revealed male cyclists try to overtake her when she is out cycling on the roads. The athlete, 39, from Bedfordshire, shared a self-portrait on Instagram alongside a lengthy caption explaining that she often found it 'funny' when it occured. She revealed: 'If I’m out about on my road bike and I overtake a man for example .... I will hear a rapid crunching gears as they try to “make amends for it”, occasionally combined with a mumbling of “I must of been daydreaming...like they need an excuse!”' She added: 'It doesn’t bother me I think it’s funny. I’ve always been underestimated because of the way I look....one day I want to be intimidating.' In the portrait, Victoria could be seen gazing at the camera while wearing a plain white t-shirt. The former Strictly Come Dancing star's number of tattoos include Medusa on her upper arm, a snake running down her forearm, a deer skull surrounded by flowers and a bird on her right forearm. Posting the snap yesterday, Victoria wrote: 'Just another day in lockdown, I was asked if I had any current portrait shots...not really. 'The way I appear has changed so much in the last few years, and to be perfectly honest, I rarely get recognised. 'I think I am quite nondescript....which is no bad thing. It allows me to be a chameleon which I enjoy.' She went on to explain how male cyclist often try to overtake her on the road, not realising that she is an Olympic athlete. She said: '[It's] usually followed with a pedal mashing (usually short lived) stomp back past me.' The athlete added that it 'doesn't bother her' because she has 'always been underestimated.' After her cycling career ended, Victoria switched to horse riding, qualifying as an amateur jockey. In 2016 she achieved her goal of taking part in the Foxhunter Chase at Cheltenham. On her left forearm she sports a horse in full flight – first unveiled in June 2018 on Epsom Derby Day. Only the previous month Miss Pendleton pulled out of a charity expedition to climb Everest, suffering from oxygen deprivation at 20,977ft. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/a...take-bike.html |

I had hoped the way I put it made that self-explanatory. Yup, it's the same government with the same self-serving selection of science. Trouble is the scientists are breaking ranks and over the weekend are saying they don't approve of today's easing of the lockdown. It's off to the Gulag for them then.

My comment is was not based upon a count but on the extent. An engineer (you perhaps?) might have calculated the surface area. Do you have tattoo, Simon? Careful, Pam, your fangs are showing. Does the man in the pictures in the link below look normal to you? Maybe you will tell me he's an ordinary chap who just so happens to have a preference for facial decoration. I say he's disturbed to want such a thing. https://tinyurl.com/not-normal |

I am not sure that is right. Given that your overall health is related to a balance of the six dimensions of health, then your overall health includes your mental health along with your physical, social, spiritual, environmental and emotional health.

I though it was somewhat unfair not to include that sentence when making the point that people with tattoos are more likely to also have mental health issues (a broad vague claim with no real detail given - for example, we don't know how many tattoos or surface area of skin covered, etc., are indicative of what degree of risk of likely mental health issues). And I do, anyway, understand the sentence, I highlighted, as meaning tattoos do not significantly relate to your overall health status which includes your mental health. So claiming, for example: "It is clear the cyclist is not the full shilling..." simply because they had more than some arbitrary number of tattoos would be unjustifiable, wouldn't it? Probably. Probably? Sorry, I think it has to be more than that. Clearly, as we all know, means obviously and without doubt. So, would anybody go up to that gentleman who had been kicked off his bicycle with photographs to show his injuries and tell him that, based upon the tattoos he has, he is clearly not the full shilling? How can that be justified? The most that can be said on the basis of the article, and accepting it as valid, is that the person mentioned is "statistically more likely than average to be [less than the full shilling, or whatever alternative descriptor is used]". Well, yes, you can (uncharitably) say that - but, surely, stating that he clearly is [less than the full shilling or whatever] goes well above and beyond what you have just said in your last sentence there. |

Nevertheless, "40% of people between ages 18 and 29 have at least one tattoo" - does that *clearly* mean anything at all in regard to mental health issues? In this very branch, I related mental health to the extent of tattoos. You didn't answer when I asked if you had the technical nous to calculate surface area but your current misunderstanding answers it. As I wrote there about teen tattoos: Nowadays the overwrought and narcissistic have joined the club. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/a...628921/People- tattoos-sexual-partners-mental-health-issues-study-finds.html for example, we don't know how many tattoos or surface area of skin covered, etc., are indicative of what degree of risk of likely mental health issues). Sadly for you, there are no absolutes and no formulas to unpick. If you are interested in "six dimensions of health" then you will understand how one factor impacts another to cause an overall effect. And I do, anyway, understand the sentence, I highlighted, as meaning tattoos do not significantly relate to your overall health status which includes your mental health. It's too much of a stretch to expand "health" used to mean specifically dermatological health and apply it to only mental health. Your ideas seems to be jumping. So claiming, for example: "It is clear the cyclist is not the full shilling..." simply because they had more than some arbitrary number of tattoos would be unjustifiable, wouldn't it? Probably. Probably? Sorry, I think it has to be more than that. Clearly, as we all know, means obviously and without doubt. So, would anybody go up to that gentleman who had been kicked off his bicycle with photographs to show his injuries and tell him that, based upon the tattoos he has, he is clearly not the full shilling? How can that be justified? My goodness. Whoever said to go and tell the fallen cyclist anything at all? Where did you get that from? Surely your extrapolated nonsense is a product of recreational drugs because, if not, it would represent a mind off its rocker. Have you ever been diagnosed or investigated for dissociative states? You can see your faulty logical method if someone were to reply to your last word above ("justified") with a diatribe on the lack of justice (get it?) in a world of motorists for cyclists. |

That is correct as far as it goes, but all that the passage meant - surely - was that there is a correlation with mental health but not ncessarily with any other aspect of health?

Why does that matter? How can that be justified? You see, that's what the concept of "correlation" is and what it boils down to: probability (being more likely than not).

Please re-read what I said. I was not endorsing that last bit, hence its being in parenthesis. If you want to use a more PC description, that's fine with me. It might, for instance, be worded: "The most that can be said on the basis of the article, and accepting it as valid, is that the person mentioned is "statistically more likely than average to have mental health problems". I'm not sure that that means anything very different, mind. |
