Did he really deserve all this?

This sad and pitiful case rears it's ugly head once again.

But this time we hear the story from the accused point of view, but more important we are told exactly what this woman was offended by.

It seems that it was because she assumed that she was somehow shunned in conversation etc.

Well perhaps so, but she should have accepted that things would not be the same for her. Yes she had entered a domain that until she arrived had inclusively been a male one, since its introduction 100s of years ago. Things were not going to be the same, special accommodation and facilities had to be provided, since she was the lone female in an otherwise male environment.

But having said all this and even if this Beefeater had been more horrible towards her, he did not deserve to loose his job, and his, his wife's and children's accommodation, all in the name of "Political Correctness".After all he had not committed a major crime, nor had he conducted physical abuse against this woman.

In the real outside world, the most he could have expected was to be dragged onto the carpet, with a sound verbal warning, and a slapped wrist, for his misdemeanour's

By the way LucyThomas7, let's try to avoid personal slights. I myself have a new policy of trying not to chuck out so many insults. It would help me enormously if you could too.
