Letter: Men's labour

Published 2 September 1995

From Shirley Renton-Imms

Re your article “Fighting fat with feeling” (22 July) – you’ve slipped up.

Sexist! At the end of the article you write that “16 per cent of the population have a dishwasher and more than half have a washing machine”. What about the motor mower, chain saw, countless electric tools, huge machinery that has taken over from men’s manual labour? Shame on you.
