Serves me right for reading the Daily Mail but FFS, check out Julie Welch's column about this story
Here's the gist.
Andy Gray and Richard Keys were wrong and their comments were "mean-spirited, misogynist and just plain outdated".
But wait! Men making sexist remarks is nothing new and anyway denigrating women is nothing like denigrating black people.
Football is sexist but then so is everything because sexism is natural, innit?
Women are equal now so it's not surprising that men resent their loss of privilege.
Women should be able to work in male-dominated fields like football but only if they're prepared to put up with shitty sexist attitudes from resentful blokes like I had to.
Anyway, poor menz, they've lost all their traditional men only spaces where they can be sexist without having to worry about the 'thought police'. Because proper men (not "arty leftie metrosexuals") are naturally sexist and it's hard for them to not have anywhere to express their natural sexism these days.
"Women may grumble about glass ceilings and pay inequality, but men don't have such a great time of things either."
So have a heart and let blokes be blokes eh?
