    Women players taking legal action against 'sexist' European Handball Federation rules | Mail Online

    I can't see what the problem is

    I support them 100%. They should protest by removing the offending items of clothing.

      they realise if they cover up then they will lose all their sponsorship?
      Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

          Fattist too!

          Although to be honest, most active sports are somewhat skewed against fat people.

            I know you guys are joking but as someone who has competed internationally in my chosen sport I really do understand where these eh guys are coming from and I think they're right. Also, I'm a bit confused. Handball isn't traditionally played on the beach, it's an indoor sport. As an aside I had the good misfortune to be put out of the tournament I was competing in and find myself wandering into the European ladies Handball championship. The sport if fairly big in Scandanavia and I found myself fairly impressed by what I saw. Yes, Handball IS a genuinely fun sport.

              Own up Mich. Were you googling for women in skimpy clothing or even worse reading the mail.

                So do I actually, but you're right, I'm joking. They should wear what's practical for their sport.

                  Just looking at pictures in the Mail. I wouldn't actually read that pile of cack.

                    There were some naked ladies protesting opposite where I was standing in London during the TdF. Never did find out what they were protesting about.
