Dont know where to start sadly. Is voting done on merit, or a case of look we voted for a female so we dont descriminate? That's not a sexist comment by the way ffs, just question the legality of any award. Esp last decade of only ever being messi and ronaldo who win things.
The french being french is all you need to know. Discuss A french dj presenter who gave a norwegian female the prize, asked if she knew how to twerk
As far as I'm aware it's a separate award for women's football, so presumably she's won it by votes. No tokenism involved.
no. This woman won the female award as a 23 year old played for Lyon. she was asked by French guy doing the awards to twerk as in asked at an awards where she is being awarded best female player in world to shake her arse for the lads.
The French are traditionally several centuries behind the civilised world when it comes to political correctness. Though that isn't always a bad thing.
I didn't read it that way, tbh. I interpret it that she was asked could she twerk - as in was she capable/accustomed to such gyrations - not asked for an impromptu performance of said practice. However, he was a French DJ so who knows? DJ's generally appear to have the computing power of a sea sponge so God knows what passes as thought in the mind of a French one.
Have any of heard about the man who has tried to get his age officially reduced by 20 years and was willing to forgoe his state pension At first it seems a bonkers notion but as you read into it more I believe he has a point ? I think it’s stupid but it is dwhere we have placed ourselves as a species. If you can change your gender why not your age ? The man in question has had physical tests completed which confirm his body is in fact that of a 49 (?) year old The gentleman stated he felt like he was 20 years younger and that being the age he is officially is holding him back, How does that differ to anyone else with similar issues ?
The Bigger question is, why was a French DJ presenting a Football award? Surely a Footballer, former Footballer or at the very least some from Fifa should be presenting. Was it sexist? Perhaps. Would he have asked Modric if he knew how to twerk? Probably not So was he Sexist? Probably It was definitely moronic and yet another blunder and **** up for Fifa's reputation (which is already in the dumps)
Yup saw that. Totally diff from gender. You can change your gender through hormones and surgery etc. You can’t change the year you were born. You say its ‘holding him back’. All he wants it for is so that he can get s younger woman on twitter ffs
the issue here is IMO he is trying to work longer and fiddle the system. He is clearly forced to retire and doesn't want to from whatever he did. He just wants to work i suppose. Everyone has a retirement age from "state" work and most big multinationals follow this as they want you out. for some like france this age is coming down or WAS and its a major row as they want to work from 30 to 40 years old for 3 days per week or they will burn their capital down. Funnily Russia is the same issue. Putin wanted to go from 60 to 65 for start of state pension and got actual resistance!
