From a disgruntled reader…
It didn’t take long for The Bosun and The Rat to nail their misogynist colors to the mast. Most of us already know that Scot is a bit of a lecherous old man, but this nonsense too?
How revealing were their snide asides about rules that support inclusion for females in offshore sailing. And what a disgusting attempt at humor that lame attempted joke about big-breasted women on the rail was!
As the editor, Scot Tempesta, you should be ashamed of yourself publishing such trash. It’s bad enough that you chose a title for the site with blatant sexist overtones (69 is soixante-neuf in French). We get it, Tempesta, but some of us we don’t like it…
The days of big, suntanned he-men all racing to Bermuda bare-chested in boxer shorts are over. Suck it up. We women are now every bit as good as male sailors – probably better.
It shouldn’t need rules mandating minimum levels of females in a crew. But that just shows how prejudiced against us the men who run the sport still are. Not to mention idiots like The Bosun and The Bilge Rat who expound their dipshit opinions online. STFU!
