'Male chauvinist'?..
 

Please would somebody please tell me what male chauvinistic behaviour Jim Davidson has shown on this series.
I can understand the shirt ironing incident...but in all honesty it is a female dominated activity merely because a majority of women work part time or are a full time housewives when young families are concerned....NOT all but most. It's all down to personal circumstances. Jim wasn't degrading about it but I can see how it can be construed as chauvanistic.
It's a bit of an era thing....however are people just condemning him because of 'hearsay'?....or have I missed something on CBB?

Please give me genuine examples and not open ended cliches...

Its a Old term from the 1970's


Jim is One of a Kind
and Funny


Fecking Linda is Stuck on Saying it -- Over and Over

Calling himself one is a good sign

Yes thats why many Like him

Some people call themselves ugly.... But they are not....

poor jim every show he goes on he seems to get grief for saying the word shirt lol

Jim probably said that before Linda got in there,LOL,and Rustigal I agree,people are just going on what they've been told and been fed over the years.Jim can iron his shirt and Luisa can go and mow the ****ing lawn!!

Many people of the same generation as Jim will hold similar views as Jim. It is a generational thing. Having said that he sure can cook for someone who expects the Mrs to do everything.

Good post.

:worship:

the fact that he's never nominated or argued with a male might be a small hint as well as the **** that comes out of his mouth.

Only picking arguments with girls, offering to cook only for the guys, etc

There won't be any genuine examples Rusty...Jim's just of his day, as am I.
I must be the biggest male chauvinist that you've ever heard of! [and my granddaughters would agree with that. lol] because I certainly still am of the opinion that men were put on the earth to provide and protect their missus and kids, and to do his utmost to ensure that they are happy and safe.
And a woman's lot is to keep the home and love the kids as much as comes natural to mothers. [oh, and iron the shirts!]....Now you or anyone else around here can call me whatever you like...but please explain how this is wrong!....We're all equal, but just have different roles in life!...My late perfect wife and I got married in 1949 and we had the best 40 years imaginable before she was sadly taken from me, and held the same views of men + women as me....and if any young progressive character said to her that it was demeaning to her, and that we wer'nt equals...then they would definitely get put straight by my Gladys!

I also understand that today's youth think that they are somehow more enlightened, and that us old folk are a bit silly....but they can't show me how much happier women that are stuck at work are than those at home ironing a few shirts!...And I also am certain that kids are much happier when their mother is at home while dad is at work trying to get as much as he can for his family!...And i'll bet you as much money as you like that Jim feels the same way as me!...and that is why he openly labels himself as a male chauvinist,...because like me, he cannot for the life of him see why anyone should vilify him like many posters on this forum do, for it!

Cheers.

This, guy makes my blood boil with his views

whatever some Jim fans need to tell themselves. i can at least admit my favorite is a very opinionated bitch who stirs **** up and is a sex hound. boogie woogie.

He's probably never nominated a male because he has several women to choose from who constantly have a go at him and huddle in circles slating him all day. I bond very easily with men because I find the interaction so uncomplicated. Nothing to do with sexism. Just a gender difference.

Jim said once, he was on a plane, and the captain came on the intercom, and she was a woman, and he got off the plane.

Chauvinism is derived from the French, chauffeur, the fellow who shoveled the coal into the steam engine, from chaude, French for hot, as opposed to froide, or cold. It was a man's job.

Well it's only the girls (well Linda,Luisa and Jasmine) that have been vindictive towards him. Neither Liz Sam or Casey have called him that....he seems to get on with them fine. I don't recall Jim only cooking for the 'boys'....you sure you have that right?....
By the way the three women who have an issue are three feminists very much equivalent to a male chauvanistic IMO...

His response to Luisa not cooking for him and Lionel was to offer to cook for the boys, which is VERY revealing of the inner workings of his sexist mind.

....and what views are they?

No one has made a substantiated comment yet.... Jim calls himself a male chauvanist so that's good enough is it to label him so.
A girl or man considers himself ugly....does that make them so?....no I think not.

Isn't it named after one of Napoleon's supporters and it originally just meant nationalist or something like that?

Yeah.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chauvinism

Watch it back Jim offered to cook for everyone and Luisa declined, that was when he offered the compromise of cooking for the boys and Luisa cooking for the girls when she declined that he said he would have toast.
