GS (11) has just started rugby coaching as out of hours activity at school. The coaches are sports students from local university. Gs enjoyed his first session very much. While telling me about it he said that the coach said it was a tough game, and they mustn't 'bitch out' when tackled etc. I explored this a bit and apparently the coach said that it means acting like a girl when faced with bigger players etc. (GS also said coach said not to tell teachers about the language)
I can't stand that word, or the denigration of girls implied by it, and it's not the way we've brought him up to think about girls
Is it me being a humourless old feminist, or should I complain?
