dangerous jobs for girls.

Canadian loggin camp episode, available on channel4OD at the moment, worth a watch. Posh business type tottie trying to show its a womens world. PFFFTT:thumbup:

That's a a slightly misogynistic comment, don't you think?

[Frank]

No, not in the slightest.

[Frank]

It was in no way misogynistic, it wasnt a generalisation for all women. It was specific towards those involved in the making of the documentary.

[janey]

It may not be meant that way, but it does come across as a bit condescending.

OK, point clarified

[Frank]

If it had said anything about all women not having a chance at being able to do Logging, then fair enough. It didnt. It was aimed specifically at the women in the programme who are city dwelling office types, who give it all the "im as good as any man, I can do what they can do" etc etc and then cant even start as chainsaw cos the pull cord hurts their hands.

For the record I am not a misogynist, I love women and have the utmost respect for them. However i do get slightly annoyed by the feminist type ladies who think that because you have a penis that you are a scumbag.

 

If it was the use of the word "tottie" that drew you to think of it as condescending, then I apologise for using local acceptable dialect.

 

 

 

 

Anyway, have you watched the programme?

[Mesterh]

I assume there wa a good bit of naked mud wrestling between the girls, right.

 

Oh and a bit of a pillow fight.

[janey]

 

Anyway, have you watched the programme?

 

 

After all that, no I didn't. I wasn't even aware that it was on

 

Was it any good? WAS it full of man hating ladies?

[Frank]

It certainly was. Let's just say that the logging community of 30 guys weren't impressed with ugg boots and handbags. Haha

 

It's on channel on demand, that was the point of the thread. Haha
