Am I the only one who thinks that feminists are being too loud nowadays and need to be directed straight back in the kitchen.

"Apparently, a female lino today, bit of a looker...according to Steve the camera-man"

"That's what he said to me"

"He says she's alright"

"Now I don't know if I should trust his judgement on that"

"Right... Ready? Ready boys"

What element of that is sexist? Are we not allowed to comment on the opposite sex being attractive or not off camera?

[nivisaur]

@k0tz45 it's a shame that what you are is a misogynist

[k0tz45]

Fucking feminists... can't be HUMAN off camera can we? Lord forbid we ever act like what we are - PEOPLE

@Radicaldude978 That is a stupid assertion. Have you personally gone to every linesman and asked what they would have done in that situation?

[datnotfair]

@Tedaus5 But they will always get stick like @spudsorb said. By the sounds of it you are not a man =. If you are ever in a group with men away from their wives or girlfriends, they always make fun of the other sex, it would be the same the other way round. Put them into something completely male dominated and what do you expect. Another thing, male refs and linesman get criticised constantly, imagine what it will be when inevitably she will get a key decision wrong.

@bradfordbulls4lyf also were not supposed to say actress anymore LOL

[bradfordbulls4lyf]

feminism is getting out of control (seriously) i have heard many a women (especially on 'feminist protest marches') say sexist things about men and also on TV if a female actress says all men are hairy smelly twats everyone laughs and its over with but as soon as man says women are only good in the kitchen = career ended

[fergysafc123]

@mendy84knoez who gives a fck its true anyway.

[AVFCsi02]

@giriisindahouse YOU LEGEND! :D

[mendy84knoez]

@iZayatte Hahaha the bit right after the lines you quoted, at 0:29, when Andy Gray says "... what do women know about the offside rule?". That's about as sexist as it gets.

[TheLukaraptor]

wasn't it a male linesman that deemed frank lampards goal at the world cup in south africa to NOT be over the line?
