There were pictures of her today at the Rome G20 summit in a red dress and red jacket (and I did think her outfit looked rather good).

It does annoy me that women are still being judged by the media on what they are wearing and there is often a breakdown of individual items ie. shoes from. Jacket from etc. If they wear them more than twice they are being ‘frugal’. Why do we still judge women on what they wear. Boris is not judged (apart from his hair)

I agree with not judging people about what they're wearing but then why start a thread about it?Confused

ManifestingWisdom · 31/10/2021 17:16

I've judged him on his appearance. Rightly or wrongly I look at him and think...................... what a shabby effort.

Is carrie going by Johnson now??

GreenestValley · 31/10/2021 17:17

Do you mean COP26 in Glasgow? Hmm

Seems like it’s you who could do with focusing less on the outfits!

IveGotASongThatllGetOnYNerves · 31/10/2021 17:18

Because what matters about women is how we look.
Have you seen interviews with actors? Men get questions about the role and meanings and stuff. Women get asked if they had to lose weight and how sexy the costume was

Yes, her name is now her job description.
CorrBlimeyGG · 31/10/2021 17:19

@GreenestValley There was a G20 summit in Rome this week. Do keep up.

Will admit that I judged her on her outfit. The women twice her age were far more stylish.

PicsInRed · 31/10/2021 17:20

Carrie, is that you?

LTB. Smile

They have been in Rome at the G20 so maybe it is you who needs to focus more on the facts and less on giving advice to others in a sarcastic manner? 🤷🏻‍♀️
AlexaShutUp · 31/10/2021 17:22

I just don't understand why you started this thread with a description of what she was wearing and a comment on what you thought about that. Aren't you undermining the very point that you want to make?

Frankly, I'm not interested in Carrie Johnson at all - whether it's what she is wearing or what she thinks about stuff. She is not an elected representative, she's just someone's spouse. I'd rather that the media focused on the issues being discussed.

CalamariGames · 31/10/2021 17:23

Well partly it is because people like to copy the look of an attractive, well dressed person. It would annoy me more if she was a politician herself and people were ignoring her work and message to focus on her appearance though.

Yes they’ve all been in Rome for G20 before they all fly to Glasgow for the climate summit COP26 - presumably including Biden and his 85 vehicle cavalcade that he also flew to Rome. FFS. No wonder they want you to focus on Carrie’s recycled outfits.

Wtf - she’s pregnant again? By him? How many is that he’s had now?

I prefer to judge him by the fact that he’s a constant fucking liar.
SpookyS · 31/10/2021 17:33

I don't give a shit what she's wearing.

But I judge her for being morally bankrupt based on her piss poor choice of husband, who seems to be both a useless father/parent, and a disgrace politically.

VladmirsPoutine · 31/10/2021 17:34

@Noeuf

Wtf - she’s pregnant again? By him? How many is that he’s had now?
I think 7. Didn't he confirm it not too long ago.

It will never not piss me off that had a female PM had 2 ex husbands and multiple children by multiple men it would have been all we'd hear about.

ilovesooty · 31/10/2021 17:34

She's not important. She's just the PMs wife.

AlexaShutUp · 31/10/2021 17:35

@Noeuf

Don't know how many now, he doesn't even seem to know how many himself. What is clear though is that he clearly doesn't give a toss about the environment, otherwise he would stop reproducing!
MrsTerryPratchett · 31/10/2021 17:37

I couldn't give a crap about what she wears.

What he looks like is a perfect example of what he is. Carefully constructed persona designed to lull people into believing his lies. He looks like shit to make us believe he's thick so he can be a different kind of shit.

Rosehip10 · 31/10/2021 17:43

Carrie is an airhead.

IcedPurple · 31/10/2021 17:44

Why should we 'judge' Carrie at all? She was never elected to any public post. She's the PM's wife. That's it. However, she has deliberately sought out a high profile, when she could have chosen to be much more low key. Could you describe Nicola Sturgeon's husband, or Dishy Rishi's wife? I'm guessing not. However, Carrie has chosen the spotlight, and given that she has nothing much of substance to offer, then yes, people will talk about her clothes. As you are doing.

Poetrypatty · 31/10/2021 17:46

I may get flamed but when I see the pair of them I just think she looks to young for him. Makes me feel sorry for his kids as he must be embarrassing to have as a father. YANBU the papers love to have a 'pin up' with swishy hair, making out women are just ornaments.
