The number of frankly misogynistic T-shirts around just depresses me. It seems to be a badge of honour for a certain type of bloke.

Festivals seem to be one of the worst places for seeing them now (especially Reading & Leeds).

What's even more baffling is when you see women who are clearly the partners of these guys happily strolling hand in hand with them whilst they wear them.

It's the blokes wearing those t-shirts who have kids that piss me off. Bad enough that those images are around but when your parent wears one it legitimises them. I have one girl, one boy and I'll do my damnedest to make sure they know to respect themselves and each other

As for that Diet Coke ad, it's horrible and leery and always cited by misogynists as evidence that feminists are hypocrites. Was that ad made by a feminist group? No it was made by an ad agency to try and flog stuff. Pathetic argument. Move on.

It's everywhere to be honest. I walked past Primark and the World Cup themed window display consisted of male mannequins in t-shirts and long shirts, Brazil and England themed. Whilst the female mannequins had crop tops on, bra-lets, ridiculously short shorts. I can only hope the range inside the store was a bit more varied...
