You've summed it up well.

This has been a total circus from the start and no one cared before it became front page news on Sunday night and everyone became 'outraged' and 'offended'.

Sorry Dave, I missed the point.

Why is she a <snip> and why is her opinion important?
Every dead body on Mt Everest was once a highly motivated person, so maybe just calm the **** down.

Dave is referring to these comments as the article below demonstrates.

Her opinion isn't important by the way but I think she just makes up the problem as to why this issue has been blown out of proportion.

I wish people would just let it go now, and move on both parties have agreed to move on. Eddie knows he was wrong, we all accept that it was wrong so hopefully they let it die.

Though I am sure the next time someone says something this will be dredged up again. It's amazing how many women though I have come across have said this was blown up and that it wasn't sexist, and all that.

But in the end who cares, if Caro is offended she's offended but going as far as to label it it's just annoying.

I don't think Sam needed to carry on either.

Agreed. A bloodbath of missing (and manipulating) the point.
