No. She doesn't speak for me, therefore not all women. I love TG :) |

She's not well. I'll leave her alone :) |
What a crock of steaming poo that article is :rolleyes: :mad:

Scoobychick, true but the ladies on this forum are the exception in that they like proper cars, they have more of the male perspective on these matters.
Not saying you are Chicks with Dicks but you arent typical girlies, and amen to that ! |

Surely she's just posted something akin to what Clarkson would, but targeting his normal supporting audience, and is chuckling at the response of boards like this? Like Clarkson's comments, this should be taken with a pinch of salt. :)
That said, I'm sure she has a few supporters, nodding in agreement. Kev, what are the members of the Knitted Scarf Owners Club saying about this? ;) |
Some of the comments that go with the article are pretty funny :

Kev, what are the members of the Knitted Scarf Owners Club saying about this? ;) I'll have to add that in my letter to the editor* that if she wasn't serious, then she needs to go back to school and learn about implying context and how to convey to the reader the degree of severity that she intends to portray. :) *And I will spellcheck, punctuate and proof read it, unlike the often unreadable dross I usually type on this forum. :p |
She's made lots of friends today, I bet she's happy :)

Doesn't seem to have many supporters of either gender according to the 'comments'.
However she is right about one thing - Top Gear has been axed and will never return. :( |
Hmm, I've just read her article and I think it's a load of old ****e myself and she certainly is not speaking of my behalf either. Cheeky moo :mad:
Now, I'm not into cars AT ALL, but I can appreciate and recognise that men love their motors in what ever model, shape or colour it may be. Their interest/fascination/love of cars keeps them happy and out of our hair at the same time!!! ;) (PS: I'm not a shopoholic, plastic argmented, Paris Hilton (ugly moo) wanna be, fake girlie either!!). I do love watching Top Gear :thumb: though. It's great TV. Personally, I think she needs a good seeing too! Stop using the toys, love and get yourself a real man!!! |
Do you think it might annoy her if I relate to her what two of my female mates said to me upon experiencing their first burst of acceleration in my Scooby:
"So Paul, have you had a shag in the back seat yet??" All women don't like fast cars, my a*se! ;) :D Ns04 |

Look i've got a trendy name (india) so i must be fabby and a real hip jorno.
another 10 minute article designed to give her 15 mins of fame. she'll be long gone and forgotten, unlike the hampster, whos now has some serious bragging rights!!! mart |
stupid b!tch

I can understand her point of view about the responsibility issue, but I think she has used her column to slate men which is wrong.
She is most certainly not speaking for all us women. I love fast cars, I have one. She has gone totally over the top, and made a bit of a fool of herself :) |

Being a journalist she would know exactly what sort of reaction she would provoke with her comments. The woman is probably much cleverer than she is being given credit for.:) Maz |
