Ann Francke, head of the Chartered Management Institute, said, "A lot of women, in particular, feel left out. They don't follow those sports, and they don't like either being forced to talk about them or not being included."
She continued, “[Discussion of soccer] is a gateway to more laddish behavior and, if it just goes unchecked, it's a signal of a more laddish culture. It's very easy for it to escalate from [soccer] talk and chat to slapping each other on the back and talking about their conquests at the weekend."
Firms urged to crack down on office football chat which “excludes women”.

I feel lost when the cool soccer dudes with there cool jackets talk about it too.
or lads engaging is trans-laddish behavior?
In the name of Social Justice, I demand answers!
Stop the planet, I want to get off!

gawd — that dress! I’m transported back to the mid-90s when I was bridesmaid for a dear friend who swore “this floral print is A-MAZing!”
I thought I saw an illegal block in the back.
I thought it was Monty Python
“We can’t even talk about Philosophy Football?”
That was great!

They talk about whichever other female just left the room.
I don’t know about Monty Python but here is a sketch from Harry Enfield. “Women:Know Your Limits!”

Next eating food of recipes invented by male cooks will be hurting feelings so we shall all starve.
These idiots are for rel with their terrorism and they should be put at the level of the Taleban banning soccer type terrorism
Talking soccer hurts everyone.
Nah, they are MUCH happier whining and complaining. They will find SOMETHING to whine about no matter what. THAT is a given.
Female weenie pissing and moaning about men.
Indeed it must be terribly tiresome carrying around that huge chip.
This is silly and childish. I’m not interested in soccer. I am equally not interested in chick flicks, celebrities, and numerous other things. Other people having those interests and talking about them don’t cause me any harm.
What I actually find “sexist” is the assumption that women aren’t interested in soccer. I’m not a sports fan but I know women who are. I have no interest in cars except as transportation but I know a young woman who is very interested in cars, goes to races, etc.
Expecting people around you to only talk about things that interest you is very self-centered.
uhh….last time I checked there were an awful lot of women playing soccer.
