More excuses for sexism. Weak as the proverbial.

 

oh ffs it wasn't sexism

flirting is not sexism it's part of normal healthy life

it was just inappropriate behaviour in the particular circumstances it occurred in

the way you are going on someone would think wwiii had started. move on and get an effing life

Excuses and victim blaming STILL.

Have you even seen the interview? She clearly tells him she's not blushing. That should have been more than enough.

FMD.

 

FMD are you still lecturing me...I had to go and do some work.....

Gotcha, so sexual harassment in the workplace is totally fine, it's up to the person on the receiving end to sort it out not up to the perpetrator to just not do it...

 

As usual Stuie you are confusing the issue.  It's hardly a matter of sexual harassment in the workplace - we are not talking about Mel being harassed by her boss or co workers.   And by the way sexual harassment is not alright its totally wrong but if you want to be a female TV journalist & interview people live then be quicker on your feet than Mel was or go and get another job - its really no different to a politician trying to change the subject or weaselling out of the question during an interview - maybe Mel should of handed over to Fran Kelly to do the interview.

Unwelcome flirting with someone you are working with is sexual harassment.

Ignoring someone's credentials and treating them merely as an object is sexism.

It was both those things, but doesn't surprise me seeing the people who don't get it.

Who said Gayle treated Mel MERELY AS AN OBJECT except you Stuie. 

He complimented her eyes and asked her out for a drink. A slave in a BDSM dungeon is treated as an object. 

Don't rewrite history (again)

Have you even see the interview? Everything you say indicates you haven't.

She was there to interview him about cricket, she asked about cricket, all he did was comment on her physical appearance and act like a sleaze.

Get out of the fifties.

Now I remember why I don't bother responding to you. Back to your banana thread with the other child level brains.

 

lol

p.s. btw, you wouldn't have a clue about the 50's. there was much to like about the 50's but you had to be there

Edited by daisycutter


Since things have got to the point where Daisy is lapsing once again into nostalgic ramblings and Chris Gayle has left the building anyway, it's probably a useful time to close this thread.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    The Dogs reigned supreme in 2018 with an inaugural AFLW premiership cup and the Demons matched this feat by winning the cup as the Season 7 2022 champions.Meggs wasn’t born when the Doggies won their first VFL premiership cup against the Demons in 1954. Covid prevented many Demons fans from legally witnessing the victorious 2021 AFL Grand Final cup performance between the Demons and the Bulldogs, but we all grin when remembering those magnificent seven third quarter goals.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

  • AFLW: 2025 Season Preview

    Ten seasons. Eighteen teams. With the young talent pathway finally fully connected, Women’s Australian Rules football is building momentum and Season 2025 promises to be the best yet. In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

  • PREGAME: Hawthorn

    The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
