Royal Mail Sexism - But Better Late Than Never

[Canary42]

The Royal Mail has today released a commemorative set of stamps celebrating England Cricket's Men's team winning the World Cup this year.

They didn't do this for the Women's similar achievement in 2017, but they have now addressed this with a further set today celebrating the Women's achievement.

Surely a case of "We can't do it for the Men without doing it for the Women, we'll get slaughtered PR wise. So let's patch them in 2 years too late and hope for the best".

When I buy stamps, I ask for a dozen first class. I don't specify whether I want male celebration or female celebration ones. I just want to post a few letters.

Agree with Tilly - never pay attention to what's on stamps - they just serve a purpose.

Equality is a good thing, in my humble opinion.
Shame it's taking so long to come to the forefront.

Why shouldn't ones achievements be commemorated, regardless of gender.

I thought that they were to be the Christmas stamps.....
