Religion is dying in Europe, the more educated people become the more questions they have, reasoned debate on the existence of God and organised religion is wiping it out in Europe. 4000 religions over time all man made and no one seen a God, strange that.
You obviously weren’t a Saints fan 86-92. Probably to busy in church.

A blog where a guy has asked for feedback on women’s experiences of clubs/night clubs and as performers. Pretty depressing reading.
We still need to work on that equality.

As you say @intiniki , depressing reading.
I know it happens, but the article seems to imply most blokes are up to it…can’t believe that’s the case (or I’m very naive) for all blokes
Suspect a concerted campaign to ridicule anyone who is thinking of molesting women or are caught doing it.- which should be followed up with criminal charges.
What’s even more depressing…yes very probably. 
Some probably would.
My Twitter is private and I rarely respond to stuff. So never been abused on there.
But the racist, sexist, misogynistic abuse I’ve seen on there is shocking. I’ve spent a few minutes reporting some of it and had feedback that some of the accounts have broken the Twitter rules but not what they did to those accounts
Being a woman who likes football, that is horrible to read - I couldn’t even get to the end. As much as you can rationalise that these people are just idiots, there is no question it affects how you interact with the sport or people who follow the sport.

Just seen on the Women’s Football thread a lovely comment by LDH about a female commentator. You could have just copied and pasted that. Tramps also left a lovely little video about how no one cares about women’s Football. I don’t care about either men’s or women’s football but others do. Let them watch it and no need to be so dismissive.

Over the last few months I have read some really dreadful comments from “keyboard warriors” over a whole range of news stories. The bottom line is, as ever, society contains a great many decent people and also a bunch of arseholes.

Both of whom are prime example of why an ignore system would be good.
LDH is a wind up merchant pure and simple.
Tramps is not what he says he is and is good at c&p ing articles that enforce his wind up stance!

More casual sexism? Good on Andy Murray for calling this wanker out…

Murray reacted like that as he lost, I believe he was referring to men and men only, in what way was that sexist? For equality men and women need to play singles together or split the tour to men only and women only, let the women’s game stand on its own two feet, you’d have equality but would you have fairness?
Murray didn’t react like that because he lost. He’s done it before.

No, he has fought for equal pay and respected and praised the dominance of the Williams sisters, different altogether.
First Google search
If you don’t know something, my advice is not to pretend you do and just talk on without any real clue. It literally took 10 seconds to get the above article. Murray had track record of speaking out about sexism. It wasn’t because “he’d lost”.
Seriously? Seriously!?
I can see how one might approve of Murray pointing out the report’s mistake but to actually attack the reporter for forgetting to specify ‘male player’?
Woops, let’s tidy this up
Bathsaint, why haven’t you responded to this by the way?
Surely the lyrics of T.I’s music, heard by millions of impressionable young people and the fact that the UK’s main opposition party has sex-segregated rallies if the people are of a different skin colour are of some importance in the fight for equality?
Well, if by started it, you mean that I pointed out three examples of how the general leftist response to feminist issues depends on skin colour, yes.
Those were 1) The Labour Party organising sex-segregated meetings if the audience are brown-skinned.
Here’s a picture of one in Birmingham

For the uninitiated, allow me to compare some of the lyrics.
Blurred Lines (Robin Thicke ft. Pharrell)
“OK, now he was close
Tried to domesticate you
But you’re an animal
Baby, it’s in your nature
Just let me liberate you
You don’t need no papers
That man is not your mate
And that’s why I’m gon’ take you”

"Skateboard P’ll make your face fall off
(Serve a bitch straight D) And make her face fall off (okay)Nigga, this your girl, better come get her
Turn her to a dick monster, nut muncher
Sperm rag, cum dumpster, left amongst her
Bitches in the past, pretty titties, plenty ass
They just drink up what we give 'em, take shots without any glass
Fuck her in the face 'til it fall off or 'til she gag, gag, gag"

I still haven’t heard an answer to these issues.
To be fair to Bathsaint, he did ask for links and proof - so I have to assume he was genuinely unaware of all of this. I trust he’ll be open-minded enough to rethink his opinions in light of the evidence, as will many of the sensible and rational people who make up this forum.
