Maybe Michael Buerk should try flicking through a copy of the Economist or the Financial Times before he goes on telly next. How many pictures of women do you see, Michael? So we set the agenda in business, politics and the media, do we?
And surely the very fact that he gets to air his ignorant and ill informed opinions on high-profile TV and radio programmes suggests that he and his kind haven't *quite* been relegated to the status of household utensil, as he seems to fear.
He's right in one way, though: unfounded whingeing used to be a character trait associated with women. Seems like the tables have been turned on that score, at least.

it's because we've emasculated them, poor little loves, with all our feminazi and having it all stuff. Let's get back to the good old days where the man goes out to work and the woman stays at home doing the housework, I say.
And I used to think he was a good bloke. It reminds me of that rant a couple of years ago about telly going to the dogs because it was totally dominated by women bosses. That's when there were four women channel controllers out of total of approx fifteen. The types of TV complained about specifically, reality and lifestyle mainly, were made by men for channels run by men. But why let facts get in the way of a good old moan?
