Unbelievable Jeff Posted 6 March, 2015 Share Posted 6 March, 2015 No it's not fair game. That's outrageous. And even if you're fine with it, you're doing others a disservice by not reporting it. There were 2 other male directors, a project manager and a female chief exec in the meeting, and none of them did anything. She is known throughout the business as being an utter b1tch, but no-one will stand up to her. From the businesses I have worked in its the way the high level females work, so i accept it. At the end of the day, she's still going to die a b1tch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Jeff Posted 6 March, 2015 Share Posted 6 March, 2015 To be fair Jeff, it is easier to **** in someone face if you are male. Lots of technical problems for females to **** in someones face unless they are lying down. I took it as a come on, we've all seen those videos. Not sure if it's sexist or sexual harassment mind.

Nope, and they now bring in over £100m per year using my Supply Chain Model She wasn't even my boss, she was the director of the area we were doing the work for.

Coxford_lou Posted 6 March, 2015 Author Share Posted 6 March, 2015 Here's an uncensored version of the video of fans insulting The Chelsea doctor while she's doing her job.

And in the other "have you ever had a Gooner up your ar*e". With individuals then shouting out even more offensive crap in an aggressive way. Probably seems hilarious from the comfort of the crowd, but she's walking past, as the only female with a group a male colleagues, in a male dominated profession. I can't understand how you can possibly defend this? Or say it is one or two idiots. How many idiots will it take for you to see a problem. 10? 100? Do you really believe this is an isolated incident? I was more relaxed about it earlier, but that clip, uncensored, is pretty shocking.

You're in cloud cuckoo land if you think that's people being over sensitive. As I already explained, I have no problem with the tits chant for the reason already specified. I didn't hear the gooner chant tbf which I agree should not be chanted. Again though it sounded to me like a small number but a chant of that nature should not be sung I agree. I don't think it's a widespread problem though, I haven't seen any evidence that it is other than the tits chant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hypochondriac Posted 6 March, 2015 Share Posted 6 March, 2015 And when that article sensationalises the problem with lines like this then they lose credibility imo: Sexist discrimination countlessly occurs every twenty-four hours, and most of the time it unfortunately goes unnoticed.

It's a ****tish thing to say, but would it even register? It's not like any of them know her. If a random person called you a slag, the same as many people on here call me a ****, would it actually bother you? They don't know you, so surely it's not a big issue. It's not as if your career is impacted by not getting that promotion or anything like that. I don't know, but I know if someone said something like that to me on the forum i would think they're weird twåts, but it wouldn't actually bother me.

Jeff, that's because you don't have to put up with crap like this on a regular basis. Most women do. And it often gets nasty or intimidating. I'm exasperated at the ease at which both you and Hypo seem to be able to brush this under the carpet with little empathy, or at least interest to understand more, from the opposite perspective. Which suggests it's probably time for me to leave this debate alone, because I don't want to be annoyed with either of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think Alpine doesn't get called 'fat' five times daily? I think this may be due to where you live, because the women I have talked to, and thats 4 at the moment, haven't ever been abused to anywhere the levels you have. I am interested to know why you find it so offensive when someone doesn't know you and shouts something from distance at you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Patrick, I'm not angry. I was just shocked by the uncensored clip, and exasperated by the response to it (or lack of) on here. But smart girl that I am, I've realised that my take on this is a million miles off some of the other posters on here, so there's no value in extending the debate. I'm glad I raised it, but I can see it's not going to go anywhere. So I'm leaving it at that. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how do we differentiate between abuse and a bit of banter from the crowd? Should we be singing songs such as "this towns a sh*thole" for example or about shooting pompey scum for fear of offending them? To my mind, singing about kicking a pompey fans head in is infinitely worse than singing get your tits out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have done, it's not on, but all abuse is not on, and i would say their is more fatist abuse, and certainly more ref, player and fan abuse than sexist, so let's deal with that first shall we? If we did it would surely take out the sexist abuse at the same time? What I find funny, is that people are isolating sexist abuse here, not wanting to talk about all the other types of abuse that happens at football, saying it's incomparable.
