To ask if this woman was reasonable to make a complaint of sexism against a train station worker?

She was having trouble opening a train door and he helped her, saying "it needed a man's touch"

You are quite bizarrely over invested in this, Pumper
You will not accept that your average Joe Soap was ever going to operate that door handle without a City and Guilds in door opening 🤣🤣

Nothing changes if nothing changes. Why not start holding people accountable for these minor remarks? Maybe then people will take the bigger issues more seriously.

Am I? You’ve posted more than I have. Did the guard open the door with his penis? Or was it more likely that he opened it because he has the knack for it, because it’s his job?

Don’t be offended at my simple question - I’m guessing you wouldn’t say that. So we do draw lines in the sand.

Nah just get out more, FFS if you lived in Yorkshire getting called love would trigger you.

Sorry I offended you @Againstmachine - you seem quite wound up by a fairly trivial question.

Nah you are the one getting triggered I don't care.

@Againstmachine

Nah you are the one getting triggered I don't care.

And yet, here you are. Desperate for an argument about something you ‘don’t care’ about.

Ah classic blame some for arguing when you are causing problem

Desperate for an argument
The irony 😆

What problem? I asked you a question and you didn’t answer it, and had a go at me. What’s your problem?

@GreyhoundG1rl

Did he open the door with his penis @GreyhoundG1rl or could it have been opened by a guard of any sex?

For someone who pretends not to care your sure are desperate to avoid this question.

Give over and stop trolling. Seriously.

@GreyhoundG1rl

Give over and stop trolling. Seriously.

Still no answer?

You are sounding quite, quite deranged, Pumper
I'm backing slowly away now. Bye 👋

Sure, still no answer though. Bye.

I'm not going to answer you are behaving like a child

Ok.

It's annoying but better than the train operator that laughed at my disabled friend as she tried to move quickly to catch the connection.

I did complain about that but for a load of rubbish back so I don't think much will happen to this man.

I do think the railway can be sexist, generally speaking. It just seems like an outdated industry

Eg once was on a train and the guard kept making silly, very long announcements. Eg “Costa del Coventry”. He started a spiel about masks and how “masks rubbing your makeup off isn’t an excuse not to wear one”. I looked around and the only people not wearing masks were random men drinking alcohol at 9am. Funny how he never accurately targeted men in his speech, only non-existent silly women, to get a few giggles out of said men.

Also once a train was delayed and I went into the waiting room to ask the lady at the desk what was going on. She wasn’t even aware a 30 minute late train hadn’t arrived at the station yet??? So I bought this to her attention. Yet as soon as a man walked in asking her the same question, she immediately directed all her responses/eye contact to him. Like he was more worthy of her time and I suddenly became invisible
