    This masquerades as identity politics, but like so much identity politics it is in fact as much about class.

    Middle class men and women are dictating to working class women the ways in which they should be allowed to earn money. They are not regarded as having agency or sufficient 'education' to make such decisions for themselves, so their 'betters' are deciding for them.

    It is deeply, deeply nasty.

    Well it does make you think that any TV programme that show men or women in few clothes will be next...8 out of 10 cats doing countdown has men in pants every show.

    WWE Wresting must be concerned imo

    Saw a tweet from a girl who works as a grid girl complaining about how the pretend feminists have taken away her way of making a living. Can’t help but agree with her. The funny thing is grid girls just stand there in tight dresses. Models on the catwalk are often showing quite a bit more than a grid girl. Will we do away with those now or is that a bit to upmarket?

    Yes, Beverley Turner (former F1 presenter) was on the radio yesterday and was asked about the fact that these women are doing these jobs entirely voluntarily, to which she replied "some women don't know when they are being exploited"

    Quite incredible.

    This is considered whataboutery, at best, since the prevailing societal problem is men's exploitation of women, not women's exploitation of men.

    I'm assuming the golf bird on Sky, Sarah Stirk, will no longer be presenting or at the very least will change her wardrobe considerably. Perhaps a nice Burkha will suffice.

    In modelling at least there is something resembling equivalence, in that men on catwalks are highly common, unlike F1 or darts.

    They've gone all equality on that too. They even have a womens royal rumble and put it as the main event
    the top rope is too high for them to be thrown over so they look silly.
