The bit I've bolded - Why are they only trying to get men there and tbf men won't see them unless they're already watching anyway so how is it going to get more men watching? |
Quote:
There is grid men in other countries , but I don't think they'd have men & women doing the job together. |
Quote:
So therefore if they're looking for new viewers shouldn't they be targeting women if it's so male dominated right now? .....maybe that's what they're doing right now then? |
Quote:
Well I can't see them aiming it more at women . |

But either way, do you really think having grid girls would get men to watch F1 if they don't already? Like how would that conversation go John : Hey fred, why don't you watch F1? Fred : Because it's boring watching cars go round in circles John : But at the end they have a row of girls hold umbrellas for the men Fred : OH MY GOD, why has no one ever told me this??? What channel is it on? :fan: |

I was trying to Google some to find as well :joker: , the ones I found were mostly the Monaco ones with polo shirts on. Well yeah if people were never interested in F1 sports , grid girls won't necessarily make them gain an interest . Or they might watch them then change channel probably. |

I'm sorry but I don't want to listen to another rant about feminism, with a male voice, in support of scantily clad models. |

It's kind of like these feminists own a copyright on the female body and it can only be used in ways that they approve. It doesn't seem to matter at all if the grid girls are actually HAPPY and want to do the job. That's the thing about this that annoys me: how is this going to make anyone happier? These feminists seem to only get joy by making other people miserable.
Call me crazy, but I would bet everything aside from the clothes on my back that jealousy did play a role this. These feminists can try to deceive everyone (even themselves) but they didn't quite deceive me. It sucks to see other women get all the male attention, doesn't it? If there is a silver lining maybe this will help men do something more meaningful than watch cars drive around in a circle. |

On telly they said what's next banning model ads and posters ??, they showed a picture of Keira Knightly in a skimpy outfit advertising perfume. So it does make you wonder how far they're going to push this rubbish , and there's hypocrisy as they're supposed to stand for empowering women but instead they're stopping them doing what they want :facepalm:. I know not everyone likes the idea of f1 girls or walk on girls but it's their choice. I still don't see what the fuss is about. For year's there's been glamorous assistants and walk on models . If they were being inappropriate or getting treated badly then i could understand the complaints . |
Model Kelly Brook, a former Formula One grid girl, described the role as “one of the best jobs I’ve ever had”.
She said: “You dress glamorously and obviously it’s about being presentable but I never felt I was taken advantage of.” Fellow grid girl Rebecca Cooper wrote on Twitter: “Ridiculous that women who say they are “fighting for women’s rights” are saying what others should and shouldn’t do, stopping us from doing a job we love and are proud to do. PC gone mad” “If we don’t do something to stop this where will it end? No grid girls, no cheerleaders, female singers being told what to wear on stage, no models in magazines? I’ll fight for my right to choose what I wear, where I work and to keep a job I love.” Red Bull boss Christian Horner, who is married to former Spice Girl, Geri Halliwell, said grid girls added glamour to F1. |
