If that deflects from other topics I'll take it.

I agree, "you've got some balls" is sexist.

We should have a female equivalent.

"You've got some tits"?

That should do it.

Some people get offended by trivial things. Lady colleague once called me sexist for using the term Ms. Not sure how it is.

I don't believe for a single second she took honest offence at the phrase itself or saw it as remotely sexist or sexual.

Good effort though, takes balls to try that! L

Feel sorry for any contractors that follow her in to that place.

I just don't get how this even got to court though. Whoever defended her should be ashamed.

If she's upset because she was referred to as having male genitalia, she needs to think how I feel when I'm frequently called a C * nt

And how does SAS feel when he's called a p*ssy ?

How did it even get that far over one comment? And how did it end up at an employment tribunal if she's a contractor?
Honestly, women like that really get my goat. She's clearly not the shy retiring type & wants equality with the men but as soon as she's treated the same as a man she plays the weaker sex card. Pathetic.
