So you think the woman's prose was light hearted and didn't reflect her true feelings on the matter :confused:

Neverguess 03 October 2006 12:37 PM

She told me she will hunt you all down and kill you for mocking her :)

The best way to get back at this woman would surely be some rubbish reviews on Amazon. :)

I do believe that some of the chaps here are interpreting it wrong and taking their wimmin hate out on this poor soul :mad:

So no, I don't think it didn't reflect her true feelings :thumb: I just don't think all of the posters on here are getting her point :)

All her readers are female, so it would be funny to give some male perspective on her books :lol1:

Whoa, what's twisting that bitch's tit ?
Anyway, back to my burger, my can of Special Brew and my 3 grams of cocaine...

Rioja 03 October 2006 12:42 PM

bit of info on the girl here; http://chicklit.us/author.htm

She deffinately needs to get out and have a bit of fun; and I don't mean spending all her free time shopping. Which, apparently, was all she did for a large part of her life according to the book she wrote about it:freak3:

I have read all about her, she has had a sad life, nearly losing a child and husband etc, which explains a lot about the over protectiveness of the father in a family environment, but doing it in the Times and attempting to use her own life as a caveat for others is misguided to say the least.

She has an opinion and she voiced it in a way most don't have the opportunity to do. It's not something I agree with but it's also not something I am going to get my knickers in a twist about either :thumb:

My brain can only interpret your last sentence and I now have that image in my head :thumb:

TelBoy 03 October 2006 12:53 PM

She has an opinion but she's stating it in a derogatory and intentionally inflammatory way; worse still, she's saying it as if she speaks for all women.

But she has brandished her opinion on all men rather than just her ex-husband, bookworm boyfriend, dad, and a Hamster with concussion.

How nieve can a "journalist" be if one uses four people to seriously base their perpective of the entire middle aged male population. And then assumes that her viewpoint is echoed by every woman on the planet? :cuckoo:

It's like me saying that a women belongs in the kitchen and can't drive. I jest it as a joke, because it annoys them. She is not, which is rather sad.

She can state it how she want, it's if it bothers you that counts. It doesn't bother me :D

And she doesn't speak for all women :Suspiciou I don't read it like that :)

Anyway, sweet home alabamba is on the radio *starts dancing* :)

Some other eejit pays her to do it :thumb:

SJ_Skyline 03 October 2006 01:03 PM

If you feel so strongly then why not tell india.knight@sunday-times.co.uk
exactly how you feel? :D

Neverguess 03 October 2006 01:03 PM

Exactly :thumb:

india knight

Didn't the Titanic crash into her all those years ago :confused::D

This lass is seriously dillusional!!! Granted many women take a very dim view of male persuits and machoism. Cars, football, downing a pint in 5 seconds, getting your todger out, etc - they just don't get it. But that's why we have men and women and that why they are different and generally stimulated by different things. Women confuse me to the extreme at times with the pointless and pathetic things they do but I love them all the more for it. In a good relationship you will go out of your way to accomodate your partners interests even when you don't understand the appeal and India obviously doesn't get that.

In my opinion she wrote this the morning after some bloke had been telling her that she was beautiful and that he was looking for a meaningful relationship when in reality he 'pretended' to miss, popped it up her poop chut and then was seen high-fiving his mates an hour later in the pub. She has an axe to grind and that is probably driven by her personal insecurities and experiences - that, IMHO is sadder than a few balding hero's out in their performance cars :)

TelBoy 03 October 2006 01:07 PM

It doesn't "bother" me other than it's written in some sort of 1970s feminist style - i thought we'd got past all that. Blokes like fast cars, it's a fact of life, not a statement of inadequacy or whatever else she tries to pin it on. Sensationalist journalism.

That makes much more sense to me than some meaningless rant :lol1: :thumb:

No, Im going her over head...to her boss. ;)

Drunken Bungle Whore 03 October 2006 01:33 PM

She's clearly a silly cow but, she's not entirely wide of the mark with this....


....a transparent exercise to allow defeated, paunchy, balding blokes everywhere feel like they’re James Bond for an hour just by watching it.
I find her article offensively sexist - I'm a woman and I love watching Top Gear (is it really suspended...? :( ).

TelBoy 03 October 2006 01:36 PM

Everybody needs a bit of escapism now and again - to me, Top Gear is just an extension of going to see a feel-good movie at the cinema.

Men, as far as i know, don't get on their high horses to quite the same extent when women dissolve into floods of tears at a weepie film, it's just what makes us different, FFS. And long may that continue.
