I don’t watch darts so wasn’t aware of these ‘walk-on girls’ and frankly in 2018 couldnt believe this was still something. A bit like the presidents club dinner. Do female darts players have ‘walk-on boys’? They are a pointless element and totally ridiculous in this day and age. Are the women happy to do it? Maybe, it is hopefully well paid and they are likely happy with the possible fame.
They are talking about getting rid of the F1 grid girls too. What are they there for other than to sex things up a bit? If the poor loves cant find their own way to the oche or to their cars by themselves why does it have to be young, fit, buxom women who show them the way? I’d do it for half the price!
Darts players are finely tuned athletes. It’s not like your pub game, the smallest change in humidity or altitude can throw off their game. Phil Taylor has worn the same pair of shoes for 23 years.
They won’t find it easy to adjust if they’re suddenly expected to play without a boner. Will ruin the game imo.
I’m not sure this is Feminism tbh. It feels more like cracking down on Fitbody Privilege. No longer can tight buns gain you easy access to the walking and standing around industries! You’re gonna have to put them tight buns to graft shovelling sewage and collecting dustbins with the rest of us! Get with the programme, fitbodies! It’s 2018!
Yeah, I saw that. He’s scum and I can’t thinking that if I’d seen that I’d have tackled him and called then police.
It’s good that France is passing a law to stop this sort of thing but if it’s drafted as the guardian suggests then I’m not sure it advances equality of the sexes.
The bill, which outlaws “annoying, following and threatening” a woman as well as making sexist comments, is scheduled to be adopted in the next week. Fines come into effect in the autumn.
