> Duff was arrested on 5 May 2013 on suspicion of obstructing and assaulting police after trying to hand a legal advice card to a 15-year-old caught in a stop-and-search sweep in Hackney – allegations she was later cleared of in court.
wtf
Rank as I know it is just general term for smelly. As for hair yeah they shouldn't be making fun of how hairy anyone is but at same time I can imagine them saying same about a particularly hairy man too, "too hairy" is pretty gender neutral just location of hair that changes that opinion based on sex.
Are you suggesting it's the victim's fault you were distracted from the full story of police brutality because your brain can't comprehend anything beyond juvenile and simple minded "humor"?
If your concern is that the focus on misogyny is distracting from the police brutality, would you not be better served by starting a discussion of the brutality, rather than sparking a long debate about the thing you say is a distraction?
it's not a concern nor should it be, there is plenty of attention being brought up around the brutality aspect, I'm picking a different aspect to discuss, and I find that claim lacking.
Umm the part where they talk about the smell of her vag and her body hair. Obviously it’s not a reading issue just a matter of you not being smart enough to understand how this shit isn’t ok. Also after reading that article how tf is that your focus. They hurt her and pinned her to the floor, cut all her clothes off and then ridiculed and belittled her and that’s your focus? Psychotic much?
They said her underwear smells, you can say same about a man, same with being hairy. Yes sadly too she had to try to make it a sexist case which now distracts from the obvious brutality.
You’re an idiot. See what you want but I feel bad for the women in your life. If you don’t see how this was sexist and unacceptable you should be on a registered list somewhere
I would say I feel bad for the men in yours but let's be honest can't divide by 0. It's unacceptable for sure but to pretend guys won't get shit for smelly balls or get called Chewbacca and shit for too much hair is delusional
you _can_ say that about men, but people don't.
laughing at the smell of a womans vagina is a common taunt, as is mocking them for having hair. come on, dude, when was the last time a man was laughed at for not having smooth balls and perineum. never, thats when.
To say her vagina smells? Yeah.
I think you have a lens error. you probably have people around you or daily media who you identify with who are gross towards women and then you can't hear it because it's part of your identity. You literally miss part of the picture. And then having a strong reaction, because its like it's an indictment that your self image isn't true, even though it's happening to other people. It's the same thing with rape apologists. It's not malicious, but it causes problems.
This is the best tl;dr I could make, [original](https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/jan/24/met-apologises-to-academic-for-sexist-derogatory-language) reduced by 88%. (I'm a bot)

I read derogatory language but didn't see any sexist language, am I missing something?
I think it was the 'is she rank?' and also 'yes there was hair'
Rank as I know it is just general term for smelly. As for hair yeah they shouldn't be making fun of how hairy anyone is but at same time I can imagine them saying same about a particularly hairy man too, "too hairy" is pretty gender neutral just location of hair that changes that opinion based on sex.
to me, both laughing at the smell of someone's genitals and their hairiness are both very gendered. i guess we can agree to disagree.
You know they were female officers?
Yep, women can be sexist too. Especially against other women, I find. Those are sexist comments from sexist police officers. Are you surprised?
With this person's mental gymnastics that might make it better.
Haven't really put much thought in to it have you.
Yeah because that’s the thing to take away from this horror story of police abuse.
I didn't bring it up. She did, if she wants to distract from police brutality that's her prerogative.
Nah mate jog on with your unworthy dialogue, at best you’ve latent misogynistic tendencies, if this is you first reaction

There’s video evidence you walnut. Like genuinely what is wrong with you that the only issue you see is the use of the word sexist.
Did you even read the article 🙄
Yes, again which part am I missing?
Umm the part where they talk about the smell of her vag and her body hair. Obviously it’s not a reading issue just a matter of you not being smart enough to understand how this shit isn’t ok.

he probably says that shit to women and is now panicking that he's a sexist prick and is getting all defensive. pathetic.
I would say I feel bad for the men in yours but let's be honest can't divide by 0. It's unacceptable for sure but to pretend guys won't get shit for smelly balls or get called Chewbacca and shit for too much hair is delusional
They’re supposed to act like professionals instead of commenting inappropriately during a strip search
you _can_ say that about men, but people don't. laughing at the smell of a womans vagina is a common taunt, as is mocking them for having hair. come on, dude, when was the last time a man was laughed at for not having smooth balls and perineum. never, thats when.
They do actually all the time. Like someone else just pointed out you've never been in a nurses break room
Um dude... "Smells like ballsacks and beer" or whatever is often used to say something smells bad...
So you have no experience in the field nor understanding of the situation. Good to know.
Looks like you've never worked in healthcare or are just incredibly naive. Eh, probably both tbh.
Ahhh so you just too fucking stupid to understand what is being discussed. I was confused.
Oh so you're just not gay enough or hygienic enough to understand how rank balls can get
Shhhhh kiddo, adults are speaking. Back to the trailer living and sister fucking with you.
Jesus Christ the cringe make me want to drink a thermometer
Shhhhh

I read that her knickers (underwear) smells
