Tunnocks match

-

a female of the species I resent others presuming to advocate for me as if I am a child, incapable of being picked for the team unless the gym teacher forces a side to choose me despite my lack of athletic ability.

Jacqueline Elston I’m all for equal rights but you can’t force people to vote for someone based on sex. You might as well bring in rules to ensure that all ethnicitie­s are represente­d too. can compete and achieve.

John Laidlaw You should be there on merit, not gender Female tennis players keep spare balls tucked into their knickers – so what is wrong with that?

Mrunclevan­ya So if it’s a tennis ball it’s OK hundreds of times a day at Wimbledon but because it’s a teacake it’s derogatory ... get a grip, it was probably an SNP troll complainin­g because it was Tunnocks .. the PC brigade are now becoming a damn nuisance and there will be a backlash!

Lennie The prudes seem not to have noticed the advert alludes to a famous poster, seen on lots of walls a couple of decades ago, of a female tennis player not wearing underwear and absent-mindedly scratching her backside

PF Brownsey Hands up all those who find themselves outraged in response to the level of offence taken in response to this delightful advertisme­nt!

Ally Baster A load of (ahem) balls and such po-faced nonsense. The biggest calamity from this might be a soggy chocolate mess after a couple of games!

Ingin Johnnie What danger or threat can come from this, female tennis players do this all the time? The person complainin­g must have an incredibly sad and empty life.

Aristotle Tunnocks will be loving all this free advertisin­g, all down to one person. I hope they send whoever it is a box of teacakes.

Pete’s Dragon Tunnocks’ ad “objectifyi­ng’ a woman” – 1 complaint = advert BANNED! Paco Rabanne ad “objectifyi­ng’ a man” – 120 complaints = Advert NOT BANNED! Modern equality at work. Farcical to the extreme.

Auld Reekie What a load of Tunnocks.
