Letters from Computer Companies and ISPs that
assume you're male by default |
| I'm so sick of this. Letter after letter from companies I
have ( and haven't) request info from come by default to Mr Surname.
Tragic, and deeply insulting.

Adverts that assume all women are obsessed with
clothes shopping |
| Most of us prefer shoes, handbags and gadgets and macs and
fast computers actually ;) And dualit toasters. |
|
Adverts that assume all men are incapable of any
domestic work but that women can automatically do it by some inborn
cleaning gene |

Women driver comments |
| Yep, thats we have cheaper insurance. But no doubt you have
a smart answer to that like .. yes they cause accidents or something
clever like that. |

Words like Businessman used to describe both sexes. I
mind this. |
| Last night watching a programme they said something like
'And this is the area businessmen tend to move into' (or something like
that). JEEZ. Channel 4!
Men who are reading this and saying 'oh shut up' fine, you'd be happy
being called a businesswoman would you ?
