Well the BBC continue to give me a good laugh.
This straight from there own news pages.
Chartered Management Institute head Ann Francke said sports banter can exclude women and lead to laddish behaviour such as chat about sexual conquests.
"A lot of women, in particular, feel left out," she told the BBC's Today programme.
"They don't follow those sports and they don't like either being forced to talk about them or not being included."
"I have nothing against sports enthusiasts or cricket fans - that's great," she said.
"But the issue is many people aren't cricket fans," she added, arguing bosses should crack down on sports banter.
Ms Francke is concerned that discussing football and, for example, the merits of video assistant refereeing (VAR) can disproportionately exclude women and divide offices.

"PC went mad years ago. Next you will need a written, signed agreement to have sex, with witnesses present to ensure its consensual."

Don't worry gammons, even most of us "pc snowflakes" think this was a completely stupid idea as it ironically pushed a sexist view that women aren't interested in sports, despite there being huge fanbases out there, this is just more "trigger" crap from the BBC. |

I want to know the answer to the most important question. Who was making Mr Francke's dinner while she was spouting out that rubbish? Plus that ironing wont do itself. Bloody women these days  |

No you won't.
The headline grabbing utterances of a single person hardly represents an enforceable diktat |
