What a bunch of football snobs! I too like football, men, cooking, lipstick and clothes. Yes an eclectic combination but, I'd rather our club lead the way with engaging with the female fans than not ! I was only saying the other week that for the first time in many many years of going to the footy do I need to queue for the loos at half time. Get used to it, the girly girls have arrived!

I like most of those things too, but I get information on those topics from elsewhere, rather than my FOOTBALL club assuming that as a girl, I must be interested in what One Direction (I'm not a paedo, ffs) are up to.
It's a huge step backwards. When I started going to City, as a "girly girl" blokes assumed I was only there to oggle the players, or because my boyfriend had dragged me along.
I thought times had changed.
I'm a girly girl but seriously if I want patronising I will do it myself. I'm a girl but don't tell me about cooking or lipstick when I just want city for football, yes I want equality and nobody telling me I don't belong in a male orientated sport but without realising it they are segregating us by having a women only section

Recipes ffs! City is football not womens hour
I must admit, reading the title I thought 'why would women need a different section? We're all footy fans'.
And when I got to the word 'recipe', I burst out laughing!!
This will do more for sexism than any bloke, being disparaging, would ever do!!

Angela Epstein FFS....... remember her spat in the MEN because she couldn't get to sleep when Oasis played Heaton Park.
Maybe we should have a women's only forum on BM? (puts tin hat on ;)

It may also help a few blokes out who cant cook.
"Just having 20 mins on the City website dear" looking how to cook a decent meal. He cant say just looking on mumsnet can he
Fair play City for leading the way once again.
