A Crash Course in Feminism Mk. II (or, why everyone should be a feminist)

[DWest]

How he has avoided prison I don't know.

I would expect it's a combination of grandiose embellishment on his part (i.e. the closest thing he's actually gotten to the exploits he brags about is watching them happen on dubious pay-per-view channels in his hotel room), and also the fact that hosting 3-grand-a-head seminars can buy some of fast getaway vehicles and faster lawyers.

working 2pm to 9pm these days, so up late and up early when most people are in bed...

The Ladies of BoLs are very quiet today.

I thought they'd rebranded themselves The BoLS lesbian mafia?

Yup. Hence Kirsten's late shift patterns.

You can't go putting Trilbys and Fedoras on the decapitated heads of horses, then put the full ensemble in someone's bed when people are likely to be at home now can you!

I really hope that the Government see sense and decline this creep a Visa, ditto anyone working for the same company.

I do wonder if Ched Evans understands that having been found guilty in a court of law, he's, you know, guilty. Mostly on account of he did it.

[Kirsten]

he hasn't apologised yet apparently, and his girlfriend at one point claimed he has done nothing wrong anyway. I know people are saying he has served his time etc. but if he cannot see that what he did was wrong, and can't admit his guilt, then clearly he has not been rehabilitated.

[Mr Mystery]

Served his time yes. Still a rapist, yes.

As the article says, dude is a role model by dint of being a footballer. Let's not hero worship convicted rapists yeah. Especially when they still maintain their innocence, despite the well documented difficulty of securing a prosecution, let alone a conviction that rape claims face.

[Wolfshade]

I did once hear a radio debate with one person trying to claim that footballers were not role models, they were in a minority of 1 who believed that.

Yes the problem is that despite being deemed in law to be acting unlawfully, he still believe that what he did was ok. Clearly not rehabilitated.

Had he been openly appologetic about it and shown remorse and stuff, then fine go back to your job. but the dude has no remorse no sorrow.
