Puerile sexist shite

in tomorrows sun: "Woman ‘drank six Jagerbombs in ten minutes on the night she was raped and murdered’ "

doubt many people on here buy this shitrag, but if you do, you are a rape apologist enabling cunt.

Hey @Velocio could we possibly not have le edgy internet memes that have their origins in belittling rape survivors on this forum please?

Agreed. Deleted.

This is why I like this forum :)

Sometimes I wonder if the political correctness in this forum is a bit much...

Then I experience the misogyny and sexism - that's unfortunately commonplace in cycling - going completely unchecked on other forums and I remember why this place is so great.

I can't say I've really noticed it on RB.

TTF on the other hand...

They even have a "non-pc jokes" thread.

Personally it's not enough.

Having says that, this forum is definitely a little better than the others.

I agree, there's a whole separate women's forum! they even have their own jersey! how sexist is that!

I reported a post on retrobike that was blatant sexual objectification and got a "your report has been dealt with" email, the post is still there with nothing from any mods.

Classifieds on RB is a clusterfuck too, unbridled bumping of ads, demands to be paid by ppg.

It's good these places exist though, makes you realise how good @Velocio and the community in general are at policing shit.

I still find it unbelievable that attitudes like the ones reported in this story persist.

'Full face of make-up'--faces are just fine the way they are.

This is terrible, is there any way to feedback to Google?

I think the argument is that's its a reflection of what people click the most. Still disturbing af. Try googling pictures for professor etc

Don't the search results customise to what you've been searching for?

Haha not in this case, saw this on Laura Scott's instagram feed so I checked myself and got the exact same combination of images and top site.

Yeah I got it on my work PC too... Weird that it's such a new article with seemingly no community/BTL action.

.

Fair, although interestingly I actually don't get that first image on my phone.

hmm, clicking "all" and "images" gets me different 2nd results, but same 1st in both cases...

Hmm

Saw that on IG earlier proper eye-roller. What are they thinking? Turquoispok?

Really?? Cinelli??? Never expected that from them!

Even by general sexism standards, this is quite something:

general sexism standards

in affluent left-leaning London...

I don't take that point, actually. As you can see in the article, there were plenty of complaints in China, too. Also, I certainly don't know enough about China or Hangzhou to make the assumption that sexism is more rife there. It's bad enough in London in all sorts of ways.
