"The Uniform Emily Ward quickly recognised that Norland Nurses (as Norland graduates were originally known) needed to be recognised as professionals (and not mistaken for housemaids) so she introduced the uniform. Norland Nurses would not only wear the uniform when training at the college but also once qualified in the workplace - they were recognisable wherever they went. The uniform is still a strong part of Norland’s tradition. In the same way that a professional nurse would be expected to wear a uniform, Norland students are expected to wear their uniform with pride, and to adhere to the strict uniform guidelines. Norland graduates are no longer expected, however, to wear their uniform when working in a family, unless the family specifically wants them to." So who wanted her to wear this hideous thing? |
She's a spoiled rich kid. She has never worked a day in her life. Her sole contribution to the world is sleeping with some guy and pumping out a few kids. |
Careful! You could be saying the same of many DCUM posters.... |
| I'm still trying to figure out why this is a thread. Oh, yes, it's DCUM! |
Er no, that's neither original (the Queen has been trying for decades) nor is it interesting. They are fucking the king and queen of dullsville I tell ya! |
No it's because this forum attracts Kate haters from other sites. They must be so very bored. |
| Oh my god leave the woman alone. Every damn day another Kate Middleton thread. |
| I know OP, that piss bitch just smiles and re wears clothes all day. Maybe we can start a "I hate Kate Middleton" club. You can be secretary and I can be in charge of posting hate messages on random message boards all over the United States!! Then we can start on other "princesses" we perceive as lazy or ungrateful!! That one from Sweden looks like she needs a bitch slap!!!! |
I agree with this. I remember reading as well that the Queen was also worried about Kate just hanging around without a purpose and started to nudge her toward finding a charity with which to develop a long-term relationship and become a sponsor. I do think it is inexplicable that Will and Kate are basically half-time while their nonagenarian grandparents lap them nearly 3 to 1 on official engagements. They could pick up the pace for sure with all the kiddie help they have including Kate's mom as full-time grandma. |
You just described my grandmother, it's called Old Money, get used to it. |
I just can't believe you spend this much time worked up over this? Don't you have some Charmin to squeeze? |

Everyone who defends Kate, her half wit husband and the archaic institution they represent should be deeply ashamed.
Do all you Kate apologists seriously think it's okay to be the kind of person who accepts other human beings bowing and curtseying to you? Is it okay that the hereditary leaders of a major "democratic", economic and military power will be white and male for at least the next 50 years? That no one else -- no matter how smart or how capable -- can be head of state? Would you accept that? No Kennedy. No Carter. No Obama. No chance of your own child growing up to be president. Just century after century of a family that was the best at killing people and stealing land a thousand years ago. Brave men better than any of us spilled their blood to get us away from that nonsense. Kate worked long and hard for 10 years to join that circus and that's everything you need to know about her. And I do not envy any of them. There are literally thousands of SAHM's married to hedge funders, tech titans, etc who live a far more luxurious life and I could care less what they do or how they live because they are not being held up as role models when they're essentially mascots of a deeply undemocratic institution. Please THINK about not just the person but the values you're defending and its effects on a society's class structure and aspirations and the message you're conveying to your own children. |
| Jesus Christ, people. She's an educated woman who got married and is now raising young kids. Her occasional appearances and remarks will have a larger impact on the world than the average worker-bee's will just because she is a public figure. It sucks that some people are luckier than others, but she lucked out. What do you want her to do? |
Um, I'm not worked up over this. I spent about 1 minute typing my agreement to PPP. And like PPP, I am a casual observer. I did wake up early to watch their wedding but that was 50/50 because I remember watching Charles and Di in 1980 and wanting to see her choice of dress. |
| We should shave her head and throw rotten peaches at her. The bitch. |
