Jamie and Jimmy had entered a cocktail competition and the judge who was judging it said , " great cocktail blah blah but you have been beaten by a woman" as if was somehow shameful. Why not " you have been beaten by someone with more expertise/skill"

No one would dream of saying but you've been beaten by a 'insert any other discriminated group'
