I'm in the Co-0p....and you know what it's like....you take a basket for your three or four items and you fill it......it is quite heavy and I need to get my purse from my bag......
As I go to put the basket down the youngish man behind me is saying......"Here, love....let me take that .....and I'll put it on the counter for you."
Does he think I'm too old to carry a heavy basket......or is it because he's a man and I'm a woman that he thinks he's more able to carry the basket....
So.....when I get home which newspaper should I contact so they can photograph me holding the heavy basket above my head and demanding and apology on the grounds of sexism.....or ageism?......Maybe mention I'm Irish for the hat-trick.....
Or....as he's not wearing a wedding ring....;-)....should I just thank him and have a bit of banter as we queue?
Poor menfolk.....you do have it rough at times.......xxx
