To be bemused by these pictures of Ladies day at Aintree

[BigRedBall]

I wasn't there so don't know if photographers have picked out the bad pics, but looking at the litter it looks like a horrible day out. Absolutely horrible. Why do some people insist on getting drunk like this?

Pictish, it's because all scousers are hideous, uneducated chavs, clearly. We're here to be sneered at, didn't anyone tell you?

Really. I would say just the opposite is true.

rainbow I think that's her shoe ankle strap...

The STATE of them!

The one who incomprehensibly wants the world to see her flabby, cellulitey orange arse.

The snarling one with her middle finger up.

The ones poured into dresses three times too small.

What a shower of shite. I always used to think ladies day was meant to be classy

The amount of litter is vile, don't people know how to put rubbish in the bin.

I'm guessing they don't worry about bins, just send a road sweeper through at the end of the day, just as cinemas and trains do.

As for the behaviour and the outfits, of course the press choose the highest heels and the lowest neck lines they are a load of misogamistic make photographers and editors. They know most papers are sold to a certain kind of female reader to tutt over and her DH to drowel over.

Hmm. pictures of Ascot ladies day last year The comparison is huge (even from the mirror). I know ascot has a dress code but one is made out to be full of drunken fishwives, the other 'ladies'.

Picture 13 why would you take a picture of a woman's breasts, close up and all not even showing her face. Regardless of what she is wearing its a very tacky, tasteless picture and some of the comments that have been written under it are disgusting. Objectification of women at its finest .

I think the first 2 pictures on the Mirror site look lovely. In the second one there is a slight larger lady on the left and I think she looks gorgeous and really well dressed for her size, much classier than some of the very slim women.

I don't care if they're crazily pissed, look dreadful or having fights. It isn't my cup of tea but if the majority are having a good time whats the harm? The litter is shocking but then having seen the aftermath of festivals I'm not surprised.

exactly LadyMary

The opposite? That we're highly educated, classy and sneer at others? Yeah, you might have a point there, although personally I only sneer at people who think some biased press photos represent the entire city.

That rubbish will be gone by now, honestly. Kotinka has a good point about the bomb scares. I'd forgotten about that.

Liverpool is so much more than the Grand National. Personally, going to the races is my idea of hell.

Oh, leave them alone . They are obviously having fun, they are all dressed up and colourful - seriously, what's wrong with it? Oh, yes… I've remembered… they are working class

OMG the one with huge flopping tits and no bra!! Why? In what universe is that ever a good look? Does she not have any friends to tell her she needs a bra?

Why is it always the ugliest ones who pretend to tongue each other?

Why, if you're large, would you wear huge frills to make you look even wider?

These pictures are BAFFLING

Btw, I don't object t o the women having a good time, just that picture is utterly revolting. Nothing wrong with the women having fun :)

Exactly, GemmaPomPom. More fun to perpetuate the stereotype, isn't it?

I don't even think the women in the photos look that bad. I've seen worse in Essex.

maybe because you like the way you look Buddy even if it doesn't meet with other peoples approval

I often go to the races although I've never been to Aintree. Sadly (well it seems sad to me) thanks to pictures like these some women think that this is how to dress for a day at the races and they sometimes turn up in this stuff on ordinary race days and you can tell they feel uncomfortable.
I'm not really sure though how it became OK to dress as though you are going clubbing on a Saturday night to go to the races. Any regular racegoer will tell you to wear comfortable shoes and something warm enough for the day.
Maybe we should include a course on 'Dressing Appropriately' on to the curriculum. I'm sure Mr Gove would endorse that.

Everyone needs a good friend, Buddy. I remember being in a department store last year and a lady was shopping with her friends. The outfit she was trying on looked hideous but they were all telling her how fab she looked

It's very selective editing. They must have taken hundreds of images, why only show these? It's depressing when women become the object of ridicule and mockery.

Also, I assume, Aintree like Chester doesn't just sell outrageously expensive tickets.

Many of the young women in those photo's probably aren't loaded they are very ordinary women enjoying a treat. So what if they get drunk or their outfit isn't perfect (my guess is many of them are far from designer prices and too tight and too short is very hard to avoid on a budget, unless you do it a lot).

I went yesterday and to be honest some of the outfits were appalling but some were obviously worn for the attention. The amount of make up people wore and thought they looked nice was also one to raise an eyebrow at. We were more than entertained just watching people with horrible outfits on. I didn't see all the litter - we were in the stands so had bins a short walk from us. I would not go again though - overpriced for 5 seconds of horses coming past you!

I don't think there were bins, so where should people put their rubbish? It's no worse than any major event and I hear it's all cleared quickly.
Some quite hideous outfits on display though.

Oh look! Photos of poor Liverpudlians enjoying a day at the races! But they have no idea how proper people at the races should behave. They should stay in their council houses and not go out.

TBH the mounds of rubbish everywhere is bloody disgusting. Far better provision should be made.
