Also we haven't got rid of our prejudices overnight..some of us females find ourselves being defensive about entering some male dominated workplaces even in the 21st century let alone admitting we might like girls rather more than boys..

One's ability to do a job should count the most with anyone and anyone who thinks it just a matter of dealing with workplace joshing had better think again.Being heterosexual has never been an issue for hetros so we can't even begin to know what it is like to constantly have what you do in the privacy of your bedroom made a joke to undermine you in the workplace.

Surely a journalist can make criticisms without resorting to this sort of level of innuendo?Try to keep it professional about someone's profession.
