I was having an argument about this with a mate, who reckons it’s a fair enough call. (He’s wrong, obviously.) His argument was something along the lines of "yeah, but just think if she had her leg broken in a tackle after a couple of games…"

I pointed out that it happens to men occasionally too, and it seldom precipitates the kind of massive public outcry he seemed to be implying would necessarily follow such an event. I also pointed out that many male footballers don’t even require a tackle in order to do themselves a serious mischief.

Then I believe he started to say something about tits being an unfair advantage in controlling a dropping ball, and I stopped listening.
