Just a question really? It struck me as a bit odd last night a comment by Dame Kelly Holmes.
I believe she was saying men and womens's medal overall lifetime rankings should be treated separately which puzzled to some degree , Would this not be segregating the results and causing a division .

Isn't the MCC still a male only club. (Cricket)

Can imagine there are a fair few drinking establishments in the St James's area that are still men only.

Wait till a certain big hitter logs on and finds out someone mentioned Gentlemen's clubs and posh areas of London. He'll be all over it like Boris on a zip wire...

Women want to be treated equally, however sometimes they want to be treated more equally then men. Her comments are self serving as she would rank better on a women's only table.

In fairness to Ms Holmes men have had more opportunity than women to accumulate medals. Redgrave said last night that womens rowing was only introduced to the Olympics in the 1970's
