anyone think the forum would benefit from more women?

anyone remember that blonde Danish cricketer who used to be on here?  honestly some of you were embarrassing.....she could post anything and get 100 likes within the hour

 :)

LOL. I wasn't around then but I would've exercised more self-control.  :D

Women cricketers must be having their hands full in a custom handbag forum figuring out who actually makes those LV bags..

And there folks is why we have no woman members. Blokes get behind a keyboard and think it's funny to be sexist.

My good mood has broken. Against my best intentions I've just answered another thread in a pithy manner. Naughty step for me.... :)

It may have sounded like that but was directed more towards the men...people on here think a lot of who makes the bat behind the stickers and forget to appreciate good willow sometimes

There seems to be more women on here than you all give credit for.

The remarkable thing about that name is that there were 17 Leonie Kelly's before her and we were completely oblivious to them  ;)

I follow leonie on Twitter and have had a few conversations with her, very nice lass very in to her cricket.

Unfortunately she has had a lot of injury issues, and I do believe that at the age of a teenager she has had to retire from the game.

I'm sure you didn't mean it as sexist, we do have some 'handbags at 10 paces" sometimes on the forum..I don't know who makes LV handbags in fact I would say a small English village somewhere near Somerset and sub contracted out to the sub continent  :)

But....none of this answers any questions, do we need more female cricketers on here? Well yes we do...I'm going to presume we have NIL women, transgender? Hmm not sure having netted with a few recently I'm on the fence....

But seriously, the women's game is getting more popular, the men's is declining....
Maybe something to think about going forward.....

Is it that Elviar bloke who also makes the LV bat mallets?
