Darts bosses have scrapped the tradition of using walk-on girls at televised tournaments after broadcasters got cold feet - sparking fury among fans. Women dressed in revealing outfits have accompanied players to the ocre for more than 20 years in a practice that has recently drawn accusations of sexism.

Neo=Victorianism without the manners. Sometimes I watch darts on some obscure sports cable channel and will miss the 2 lovely ladies. Now they are out of a job because of MeToo prudishness.

[ViLaLuz]

Those women aren’t allowed in the New Caliphate.

[ImJustAnotherOkie]

Darts + Balloons. It was only for their safety.

I think you’re on to something, vilaluz.

The islamization of europe has spilled over tbe dart courts.

I guess these people won’t be happy until they’re in burkas.

[KC_Lion]

Mark my words, the age of Edwardian Chaperoning is coming back.

[Yo-Yo]

TTIWWP!

“Hold my beer” Alert?

They call that scantily clad. I see more skin than that at WalMart.

[Doogle]

....but they’ll flock to a go-go bar
like gulls to a garbage dump.

That’s only because it rolls out the bottom of a halter top. (And rolls, and rolls, and rolls...)

"They call that scantily clad. I see more skin than that at WalMart."

True, but the skin in Walmart is not what you want to see.

...

I think they’ll use beauty goats and camels before that.

[60Gunner]

Yeah, the Brits wouldn’t want to offend their muslim masters now, would they?

[Mr. Jeeves]

“Scantily clad” is a journalistic term meaning “Offensive to the Feminist World Order”, not an actual description of how a particular woman is dressed. :)

[2CAVTrooper]

True, but unlike Walmart you don’t have to bleach your eyes after looking at the two pictured above.

[Redwood71]

“I see more skin than that at WalMart.”

But most of that is just flat frightening.

[catbertz]

They seem nice 🙂

[bk1000]

Wow, when will someone just say to these people, “No, that isn’t sexist, whatever that means”, or “no, that isn’t racist.”

[elcid1970]

Whoever calls those gals “scantily clad” must be a muzzie.
