Russ is sexist.
 
After an odd experience at my gf's house tonight (and by 'odd' I mean 'sexist')it became apparent that I am sexist. Not to the point where I think women shouldn't hold responsible jobs etc but in general terms, such as assuming most women are crap at parking and other such examples.

She spoke a LOT of sense in to me and it seems I've not even been aware of it - until now.

Apologies to anyone who has been offended by a sexist comment which I've put forward as a joke, and I can assure you I have not intentionally been sexist.

:Yikes: Hold the front page :D

So, what did you do/say?

Or, rather (as I wouldn't expect you to divulge that here) what do you think you might have said/done here that would have offended?

BTW, if it's any consolation - I'm sure (knowing what this crowd is like) if you really had offended anybody you would know about it :p:

That was nothing to do with me, I was driving! :ninja:
and the idiot on the other end of the phone asking the questions was no help whatsoever! (And that wasn't you by the way!)

Tonight was apparently the culmination of a number of events - I was showing her flatmates the absolute stunner on page 42 of this weeks's Nuts magazine and one of their gfs spoke up to say she didn't think this particular woman was nice and I "shh"'d her which apparently sounded like I was saying because she was female, her opinion didn't count.

I think it was Marina, navigating - and she would be the most surprised by this thread, I'd imagine :Yikes:

big up to you, Russ - sometimes it is the 'throwaway' stuff that can be the most hurtful, without you (or any other one of us), realising :tu:

Hmmm Russ gets told that he is sexist? Stranger things have happened....
Russ thinks about it and realises he has made sexist comments on the forum and in public and apologises.....
Ok stranger things than that haven't happened often ;)
I seem to recall telling you off on more than one occasion for a remark made in jest in the past but you rebuked my comments, at least you have shown that you have the "spheres" to apologise for your misdemeanors :) Any more confessions you wanna make while you are on a roll? :naughty:
