AIBU?

To think there really must be a female cameraperson whenever Wales play in future

Because surely any woman would understand that when Leigh Halfpenny has his scrum cap off, the camera needs to be on him in a lingering close up?

We do NOT want to see anyone/anything else. Ok maybe a second or so to see what kind of kick he has to do but then back to Leigh please

Double standards. A bloke publically salivating over a woman would be called misogyistic bastard

I will happily accept being a massive hypocrite in order to salivate lecherously over Leigh Halfpenny and general rugby players' thighs.

If I was still with ExP, there's not many of them I'd chuck out of bed. It must be love with DP if I'd give a chance with any of them up Wink

HollyBerryBush Yawn. I was in the privacy of my own sitting room with my DH who thankfully shared my opinion that we are married - not flippin dead! Grin

Also, I don't so much perve as appreciate - since I'm technically old enough to be his gran.

My general opinion is that someone really ought to do one of those marble statues of him and put it in Chatsworth House. I nearly wet myself laughing watching women walking through the door and catching sight of www.chatsworth.org/art-and-archives/art-library-and-archive-collections/highlights/sculpture/the-sleeping-endymion

not sure if it applies in Rugby as I am not an egg chasing fan but honestly, as a life long football fan, I dislike female so called fans who spend all their time cooing over the players thighs - watch the game

if a man was making such comments about womens rugby they would be slated, quiet rightly
