    Because when men have things that exclude women it's 'sexist' when it's the other way round its 'empowering' and can also be classed as 'girl power'

    I would like to propose the equal olympics, men and woman against each other in the same events...that would take them down a peg or two.

    They do more or less - what's the betting that specialist car insurers for young drivers with modified cars that can't get insurance elsewhere has a rather disproportionate male take up?
