2. (for men) rings other than a wedding ring
Of course not! I wear one myself.
3. ostentatious expensive watch
No problem with expense, but take issue with men who wear oversized watches they can't get their sleeve over.
4. excessive aftershave (forgivable in over eager young men but nobody over 25)
No problem with that.
5. use of the word "woke" as a pejorative term
No problem with that.

I still think blokes wearing even a wedding ring is kinda funny. My dad and most of the adults I knew growing up didn't.
I like my watches but I've nothing ostentatious. And by rof standards I'm barely above a Timex.
And unfortunately for the purpose of (4), I was the impressionable younger brother of an over-eager young man. So I like the stuff. I like to think it's by no means excessive. But like halitosis and BO, you never know...

But he's right twice a day, Peat.
1. No - but have a visually appealing number. It came with the car. So was a nice bonus. Doesn't mean anything, just had a nice symmetry to it.
2. Certainly not. But may wear my grand dad's ring, which my dad wears, when my dad dies. He was not a wealthy man, and the ring was probably the only fancy thing he owned.
3. It's not a Casio but doesn't draw looks and not the size of a dustbin lid.
4. Used to give the balls a waft of JAZZ back in the day. More subtle now.
5. People who think being woke is a problem are the problem, but feel more comfortable blaming other people.

"anyone who calls themselves “Dr” but isn’t a medical Dr.
(academics in a limited number of specific circumstances excepted - generally the sign of a nobber)"
Medical doctors in the UK are generally Batchelors of Medicine or equivalent. Few of them seem to be actual doctors of medicine. "Dr" for these people is a courtesy title. Lots of dentists call themselves Drs these days but on the brass plate it generally says BDS not DDS. So, it seems like it is medical "Drs" (and dentists) who "call themselves" Drs without a qualification to back it up.

Saying "I'm more of a rugby man". Its fine to be more of a rugby man or even dislike footy. Just fooking say so rather than that slightly sneery phrase designed to shut down the discussion which could mean anything between of I love rugby and am not interested in footy sorry or I am not interested in footy and couldn't care less about rugby either but definitely don't want anyone to think I might have an interest in footy.
