  1. Gender bias only exists when it used in favour of women or minorities. When will you get that through your thick white skull? And by the way I would just like to thank you for your continued support of generous welfare payments and government sponsored feminist initiatives though the white man’s burden of taxes, taxes, taxes.
    LOL, some days it just seems to get worse and worse.

  2. I think it ironic. As the South Korean female premier is being impeached and the former female presidents of Argentina and Brazil are in the courts due to corruption charges. Seems taking a world view the feminists are proven quite wrong; powerful women are not paragons of virtue Meanwhile the former premier of Northern Ireland clings on to leadership having presided over a colossal financial mess when in office.
    Irony further abounds that the all women shortlists in the Political Parties contravenes the Labour Equality Act, this being proved by a male Labour member who took the party to court. Its only possible because Labour then passed a special piece of legislation to get round their own Equality Act!
    And finally there is something quite funny about poor Hattie Harman, after so many years trying to manipulate herself into Labour leadership playing the “woman card” and she leads nothing. But three women in the UK are party and Gov. leaders. Two from “right wing” parties. She must, one thinks, be wondering.
    And to cap it all Mr Harman won out in an “all women” shortlist. Proving that gender really is a “social construct” to be constructed just how Hattie wants it
    Perhaps she should consider showing her legs in the DM. I doubt Jezza’s are a match.

    • regarding Harman, you should watch the oxford union debate “why I’m not a feminist” with Edwina Currie(its on youtube I believe).Its outstanding.

      she make similar points about women in leadership in both parties ( debate was before Theresa may became leader, and the classic comment whilst looking toward harman “when it came to the chance for the labour party women to step up into the leadership.. they chickened out”

    “And for those male MPs who are always saying we need more female MPs, why don’t they back the cause by giving up their seat in Parliament for a woman? ”

    Ha ha!
