Meet Your Strawman - UK Centric but could apply to Commonwealth Countries
Extract
If nobody has told that you that you have a strawman, then this could be a very interesting experience for you. Your Strawman was created when you were very young, far too young to know anything about it. But then, it was meant to be a secret as it's purpose is to swindle you, and it has been used very effectively to do just that ever since it was created.
