IMO THATS part of the problem!

I hate the way two people of opposite sexes can't even have an argument/disagreement on BB without somebody labelling the man as a bully/woman hater/aggressor purely because he's male. We'll never have proper equality while people still do that. Out there in the real worId I feel the same... that I'm female, treat me the same as you would if I were a bloke. If you disagree with me feel free to argue with me , if you think I'm acting like a *******t call me a *******t, just like you might say I'm acting like a *******k or a d***k etc. Just because we're female doesn't mean we have to be treated with kid gloves"

The point that is missed is that Sian did nothing to deserve it, its not like it was said in the heat of the moment
