I think some forum members can be a bit irrational. They seem to think they are living in the 1950's and instead of embracing the changes in society they simply object to absolutely every single thing and see some kind of marginalisation in every single situation saying society has gone down the toilet. Mentioning no names or course.

Excellent point, that is the case on many issues. There is no substance to the claim that if a woman brought 2 men back to the boardroom it would be sexist, however if that woman had shown as much disregard for her male colleagues then that's different.
One comment zee made that stood out for me was his opinion of who should win, lisle as she looked good running around in her nightclothes.
Are these the comments that professional business people should be making?

I agree its time they brought leah back in from the 1950s and tried to get her to understand that EVERYONE deserves to be treated with respect including men and that people get judged ultimately on their attitude and performance....both hers were dreadful

It was Natalie who first made the sexism argument, Leah then joined in. Nat has lost all five tasks so far and resorted to dodgy tactics in the BR she deserves as much of your venom as Leah.

Excuse me, Back from the 1950's?
I don't understand that statement,there is no other candidate that has shown themselves to be to be as dogmatic and discriminatory as zee was to his female team members, that is a fact.
Not one that will be very attractive to you, yet there it is.
I am going to go so far as to say that there may be a reason you feel so strongly on this issue. As I recall you have never been a great supporter of females in the workplace.. Taking my view from other threads and responses from yourself.
That is not an insult, I just feel that colours your perception.

lol hilarious am I supposed to take your so called analysis seriously
many women have taken in 2 men to the boardroom and no man would stoop so low as to blame it on sexism.
Zee wasn't discriminatory at all , that's simply a lie.
Your claims about females in the workplace about me personally is also a lie based on nothing , just hysterical nonsense to be honest.
Ive worked with 100s of women and employed many and no one has ever had any issue with me on matters of gender bias, so a lifetimes experience proves your shallow analysis the utter shallow baseless poppycock it is.
Perhaps it is you who have serious hate issues with men that need to be dealt with? Try some counselling perhaps. That is not an insult.
