    Why pick on the boys in blue, it seemed to be boys generally they were getting at? V. sexist. All the men were bad or weak and all the women good. Men won sadly. Pity it was so totally one-sided. Maybe the system does work like this but at least one good man and one bad woman would have made it more convincing.
    The early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

    If you watch anything on telly nowadays, women are the ones with all the answers.

    The adverts show the men being clueless morons and the women come in and sort out the mess afterwards. For example, a man and a woman each have a headache. The man stands there suffering waiting for his traditional painkiller to be absorbed into his system for half an hour while the woman stands there with a smug look on her face having been sensible enough to use the new, fast acting painkiller. Or the man gets out a whole bucket full of cleaning products to clean the bathroom, complaining that it will take ages to do but the woman, looking condescendingly at her brainless other half, simply brings out the one, all purpose cleaning product that will mean they can wizz round cleaning the bathroom and then have plenty of time left to go for a drink down the pub.

    Most modern TV shows are as bad, if not worse. They have women doing everything better than the men, including beating up the bad guys. How many times have we seen some skinny woman cop outrun her fit male colleague over a distance of at least 100 yards or more, catch up to a strapping 20 something badguy, deck him with a couple of swift uppercuts and totally subdue him ready for the male colleague to just stand there and say "well done". The fact that she could even punch these guys in the jaw without breaking her hand is extremely far-fetched, let alone actually knock them down. I know these are fictional shows, but they're not supposed to be beyond the realms of fantasy.

    Let me explain!

    Police called to women with cut lip, bruises, crying etc, etc, = tea and sympathy abound, poor victim.

    Police called to women with bizare behaviour, frightened, subdued and suicidal = mental health issue.

    Just because you can't see something doesn't mean its not there!
