According to an article in today’s Guardian, based on a survey of almost 2,000 male football supporters, more than two-thirds of them harbour hostile, sexist or misogynistic attitudes towards women’s sport. Hmmm… that’s not telling me anything I don’t already know. The guys in the public bar of the Black Swan - a smaller sample, admittedly - would be unlikely to interrupt their witless banter to watch women playing any sport on the TV in the corner… unless the women were naked or using power tools. To sum up their attitude in a single sentence: “If all those women are running around that field, who’s going to cook my tea?”
Licenced today: for a price that would barely buy a 'bag for life' in Aldi...
