Or was it on Twitter? Cancelling someone’s membership for being negative about the SSC seems a bit harsh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Munro Posted February 18, 2020 Share Posted February 18, 2020 My wee boy received his membership pack this morning and was all excited taking his card into school to show everyone. Didn't really see the need for the poster to be a mix of the mens and women's teams though. If they want to send a women's pic and letters from the women's manager then fine but at least have separate ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you read my post then I said it was fine having the men and women's team represented if they so choose.

They’re both the Scotland senior teams though, so I like the idea that they’re promoting/normalising the fact that we should be supporting both teams equally - which I hold my hands up and admit I was guilty of not doing in the past, but I try to do better at now.

Why should we be supporting bith teams equally? I don't watch women's football at all. Why should I care? I'd rather hear the womens team are doing well but wouldn't sit and watch them. Should we support the rugby and football teams equally too if we're using that logic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t see that as the same logic, especially as someone who hates rugby with an absolute passion - especially living in Edinburgh at this time of year (Six Nations time.) I think that not liking a particular sport is fine. I don’t think that choosing to not support a team based on their gender, is acceptable though. I used to be guilty of doing that, but then I thought of sports like tennis and athletics, where men and women compete on an equal standing, and thought that it’s crazy/not good that football isn’t the same.

My wee laddie (through his mum) always got me the official Scotland calendar for my Christmas every year. Told him not to bother the last two years as it was split with the men’s and woman’s team and I wasn’t hanging up pics of lassies I haven’t heard of or care about in the office or garage. A small point but one that bugged me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Men and women don't compete at an equal standing at tennis. When’s the last time you seen two women going 5 sets at Wimbledon?

They play less sets due to physical differences, but they receive equal standing to the men in terms of prize money etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
