Thanks for this hilarious parody Ceri! One has to laugh at how ridiculous things have become on the identity front. :D

I actually thought this was real for several paras, lol - perhaps a sign of how mad public life has become? But it did make me think of John Douglas's reflections in Mindhunter of the follies of a therapeutic approach towards psychosexual offenders, who he says are excellent profilers themselves - ie great at reading other people and saying what others want to hear - and whose crimes are the most precious part of their lives, which they will go to great lengths to keep doing. In other words, the self-reporting honour system attached to therapy (based on the assumption that that the patient wants to change and will work honestly towards that) simply has no meaning for these guys.

I'm with Charlie! I thought it was real, despite some of the weird names, because today you just can't make sh!t up.

Have you thought about using less stigmatizing language such as property appropriating types, property appropriating people or goods appropriating beings.

Brilliant!! And so tragically funny while illustrating the creeping normalcy of destigmatising abhorrent sexual behaviours. I laughed out loud at your clever names... I recognise them all. Isn't Red fabulous?
