Uci to ban champagne use during podium ceremonies

UCI TO BAN CHAMPAGNE USE DURING PODIUM CEREMONIES

Today the UCI announced the uncorking of champagne, part of the traditional podium celebration at bike races for over a century, will be outlawed in 2015. Citing a five-year study recently concluded by HIGS, the Helsinki Institute for Gender Study, and commissioned by the UCI, the practice is ‘overtly masculine’ and ‘inherently gender biased’ according to the study’s results.

After detailed investigation of over 1000 podium ceremonies worldwide, utilizing high-definition video and multiple on-site podium inspections the HIGS, led by researchers Dr. Ilsa Slaapkamer and Dr. Jakop Bootstrip, found the uncorking of carbonated champagne after vigorous shaking was clearly a metaphor for male climax and as such could only be construed as a purely male celebration and had no place in today’s society of gender equality. The study went on to state that while this type of behavior is appropriate in the privacy of one’s own team bus, it has no place in a public setting.

I'd say the steps their taking concerning equality in the podium girls is a bigger story. Anyone else hear about this? Apparently from now on podiums will have one podium girl and one podium boy. Their reasoning is that this will create equality for both heterosexual and homosexual athletes.

And, in response, France revoked all route permits for the Tour de France. Cookson is en route to Paris for high-level negotiations.

Funny thread. For now.... but wait a few years; all this political correct gender mainstream insanity by the Feminazis will become reality in the western "civilization".
I mean for example the ballyhoo about Sagans "incident" showed the direction... Where in the end he had to officially to apologize. What an embarassment to the human nature (not what he "did", but that he had to say sorry).
