Feminism is a one-way street

According to the controller of BBC One, the Beeb is not only "hideously white", but the cop shows are hideously male.  You can guess what that means.

This sort of bean counting isn't pro-women, it's anti-men.  If I were to point out that nine out of the BBC's 15 main presenters are female, would they sack one and replace the other with a man for precise balance?  I'm sure they would.

About the time Doctor Who stops being a sex romp and goes back to being a children's programme.

Update: Another underrepresented group.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
