Quality, but is it banter or sexism? Cue the pc brigade

[mattybhoy]

I tell you what I would have her as linesman or Ref in the SPL. As already mentioned, she got the big potential game changing decision right (which was ironically an offside judgment..), which is more than the Scottish refs can do at the moment! Honest Mistakes....

Cue the pc brigade

I think people need to understand terminology before using it.

Sexist? Yes.

Male Chauvinist? Yes.

Politically Correct/Incorrect? Nothing whatever to do with the issue being discussed.




(This is a general observation and is not directed specifically at msocsci.)

[jcgrumbles]

So if hes gone so what?There will be another overpaid person in his place to do absolutely nothing but state the bloody obvious the same as he did,and im not being sexist or anything but i think jennifer love hewitt should get the job...mmmmm...i see the light

Aye. By the way who are the PC Brigade? Is there a membership or anything? If so do you have to prove your worthiness? I've always thought who are these nasty folk who have certain people jittery with nerves about saying the wrong thing and jumping up and down about it 'not being like this in the good old days'..?

Sorry going off thread here.

Agree. And she's a Tim (Celtic fan) even better! Wouldn't it be ironic if they replaced Gray with a woman though.. and why not! In other countries the football shows are presented by women.

sly sports news always has a "doll" next to the male... wonder why???

[jcgrumbles]

Exactly.To keep everyone happy tho i think they should have a one armed lesbian he/she male with auto erotic tendancies and a moustache

I suppose they could have a pot bellied pig sitting there but as long as its got at least one pair of tits the blokes wont change the channel

[2muchtecnology]

Have you ever watched Loose woman?? they are sexist towards men every day! but it would seem that is ok as its only woman and feminine men that watch that sh1t anyway.

What I could not understand about all this was how did she find the time to run up and down a touchline on a Saturday afternoon waving a flag when at home she has dishes and tea to make?? Thats called a joke by the way.You see when men get together thats the type of things that are said in BANTER. always have done and always will. I think its the up and comming feminine brigade that seem to have a problem with it. I have nothing against woman in fact I think they are really nice!!

[mattybhoy]

Oh not another Brigade! The Feminine Brigade now. Do you have to be a women to join them??

Just to add, I don't think there's a valid argument in the analogy with Loose Women. It's not a serious sports programme (where the governing body of the sport in question are activley encouraging greater participation from another sex (women). If you're using the loose women analogy surely you should balance it up with other tv programmes that are targeted mostly at men such as Soccer Am and that show with Richard Bacon. Both of which use similar humour I believe to loose women. There just aint an argument, completly different genre.

That's called a Henrietta..???????
