shouldn't automatically spring up "Jessica Ennis Bikini" and "Jessica Ennis bum" as two of the first three options.

And that it shows that sexism is alive and well for even the most successful females.

AiBu to feel incredibly sad about this..

Jessica Ennis bum is the most searched term for her.

People google those, in the same way if you type in Mark Foster it comes up Mark Foster body, Mark Foster speedo.

RubyFakeNails · 08/08/2012 16:53

Forgot to say I read an interview with her where it was said that Jessica Ennis Bum being her most searched term is a fact it not a random result.

helloclitty · 08/08/2012 16:56

I just googled Mark Foster and the first one was 'girlfriend' but the second one was 'swimmer'. At least within the top three his actually sport is mentioned. No sign of the body or speedo though

Welcome to the internet. It's full of people searching for pictures of men and women.

And that it shows that sexism is alive and well for even the most successful females.

That isn't sexism.

dranksinatra · 08/08/2012 16:57

Because there are a million mark fosters..
And she has a great bum.
There I said it.

MrsKeithRichards · 08/08/2012 16:58

It's pervism

Tee2072 · 08/08/2012 17:01

It's what's happening all over this site with threads about attractive male swimmers etc.

So don't blame the men. It's people.

helloclitty · 08/08/2012 17:02

But Mark Foster swimming is there number 2. But nothing Jessica Ennis sport related.

How can it not be sexism?

It's sex, not sexism.

RubyFakeNails · 08/08/2012 17:04

I based that on a off the top of my head example, but if you click on the images section, I don't have suggestions on the web search, body and speedos are the top 2 other suggestions.

Loads of the male ones bring up wife or girlfriend, thats because loads of women are googling the wives and girlfriends on men they fancy.

Loads of men are googling the women they fancy.

Porn is the biggest use of the internet, and sex is one of the most googled words. You are reading way too much into this.

helloclitty · 08/08/2012 17:05

But I haven't found a male where the most searched is body related as opposed to sport.

Just googled Usain Bolt.....1. Olympics 2012...2. 200 metres

well i have just googled jessica ennis and nothing about her bum came up.

maybe you should ask the any other people with access to your laptop if they have been doing their own research on it.

RubyFakeNails · 08/08/2012 17:06

Also I just did it for her Jess and the top results are parents, bikini, boyfriend, and bum.

Its not sexism for people to fancy her and want to look at her.

Tee2072 · 08/08/2012 17:07

Because you get the same sorts of things searching for men. That's why.

Stop looking for reasons to be offended with the world. You'll be a much happier person.

Michael Phelps, top results girlfriend then body

But Grin at the url revealing exactly what the link is about!!

GhostShip · 08/08/2012 17:10

It's not sexism.

Just because people want to look at her bum and have searched it, doesn't make it sexism.

For crying out loud.

Tee "Stop looking for reasons to be offended with the world. You'll be a much happier person."

So you deduce that because it makes me a bit sad that the top results are not sports related I am an unhappy person?
