Re: You can't call someone 'Pretty' anymore.

I was wondering if Ms Hilborne's remark can't be simply ignored? After all, Women in Sport's commitment chiefly targets women in sport which does not include Anett Böszörményi who is a chef. If she shared Women in Sport's beliefs, would she keep posting pics on Instagram showing her lightly-clad?
BTW, the DM refers to her as Miss Böszörményi. Isn't that sexist as well if the marital status of a woman is particularly indicated?

Showing your age realspeed, might just get away with it.

Indeed, a woke minefield, likely to fall foul of their own hypocrisy.

Re: You can't call someone 'Pretty' anymore.

What a load of bollocks.......
Not that I want to be called pretty.............
