Employers must crack down on sports chat in the workplace

Employers must crack down on sports chat because it 'excludes women' - https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-7933703/Employers-crack-sports-chat-excludes-women.html

What utter nonsense. There seems no end to this politically-correct, virtue-signalling from nutjob radical feminists.

The inevitable backlash:

Ann Francke, head of the Chartered Management Institute, is a feminist blithering idiot (but I repeat myself)

Sports chat? It’s this man-hater who should get the red card

No, office football chat is not excluding women

Get back in your attic Ann!

As you say , complete rubbish. Women have teams in loads; if not all of the sports men play . Their football teams are superb.
Some women I know have greater technical knowledge on motor sport than a lot of men I know that think they are clued up.

Presumably she also thinks talk about Love Island, clothes, shoes and nail salons should also be banned.

I have worked in an open plan office where there was an even mixture of men and women. The majority of the men predominantly talked about sport for on average around 15 mins a day at most. The majority of the women talked about, shopping, soaps, hair do's, nails, diets, men... for about 7 hrs a day. It was all very pleasant and good fun! When I got in from work my wife would wonder why I didn't want to have much of a conversation with her and enjoyed the peace and quiet

Utter claptrap. Imagine the backlash if a man had said something similar!

I look forward to @SparkyChick's comments - she won't be impressed by it either I don't think

Unbelievable. Going to end up like ---- Germany.

Neither am I!!

The main thing to be taken from this is don't read the daily mail if you are going to be upset by sensationalist journalism based on the slightest whiff of fact.

 

[SparkyChick]

She's not worth my effort @DPG , she doesn't represent me or any of the women I know. Typical feminist wench, thinks she's doing us a favour when in actual fact she's part of the problem.

These women are so out of touch with what modern women are like. Thanks, but I'd rather go out with the guys I used to work with for beers than go on a girls night out.

You took your time SC, have you been doing the ironing or something?

Think you might be wearing it mate.

Not read the article but sounds like typical Daily Hate rhetoric to brain wash you all. Next thing you know we’ll be leaving the EU!

Ironing... WTF is ironing???

Encourages ladish behaviour ?
So does having bollox ! It seems to me that that's the way this dialogue is ultimately heading .
Some feminists wont be happy until males as a species are either neutered or are no more .
Reminds me of the two Ronnie's sketch " The worm that turned"

It does make you wonder about Management pushing teamwork, when at the drop of a hat they will try and ruin your working life, with incredible acts of "how to screw up the simplest tasks" and bogger the team
