Interesting. An extract from the BBC piece:

“Penny Dyer, director of the model village, said the character was intended as a “light-hearted joke” but had been removed following the negative feedback.

“It’s also fair to say that streaking was very much a feature of a different era,” she added. [J4MB: So is almost everything at Godshill Model Village.]

“It is far less common and is no longer something that younger visitors recognise, so the model has lost much of its original relevance.

“As a business we listen to customer feedback and, after considering the comments, we decided to remove her.”

Dyer said she had also received messages from people supporting the reinstatement of the streaker – but that her aim was to ensure all visitors felt comfortable and enjoyed their visit.”

The aim “to ensure all visitors feel comfortable” is an aim to allow hatchet-faced feminists to dictate what all visitors see.

It isn’t misogyny to hate hatchet-faced feminists, it’s a civic duty. Let’s hear it for Erika Roe, and her streak at Twickenham Stadium in 1982.
