What the strawberry float is that?
Apparently it's when a woman shares an idea or suggestion which is ignored until it is repeated by a man after which everyone claims it's amazing and pats the man on the back for thinking of it.
I don't doubt this happens but the difficulty with these things as I see it is that the terms like "hepeated" or "mansplaining" become the ONLY explanation for the situation.
"They only listened to my idea when a man repeated it because everyone in the meeting was sexist"It couldn't possibly be that actually you didn't convey the idea very well and the other person just happens to be a better communicator or is gifted at explaining and convincing others? NO, SEXISM!

Pretty common in Cheltenham. Often used when addressing another person.
"Alright, mush?"
strawberry floating hate it.
Another one for Literally here. More so because most people use it incorrectly.
"I like literally broke my neck, innit mush!"
I've lived in and around Cheltenham most of my life and I can't say I've ever heard that one!
Have you not? That does surprise me.
Working at Game and Pink Planet I used to hear it all the time. Used to drive me bonkers.
What kind of timeframe are we talking here? Must admit it's been a while since I spent much time in any high street shops - Amazon Prime all the way baby!
