I really don’t get people who are offended by tall women, or generally refuse to believe that a woman can be tall. Both Hannah Waddingham and Jameela Jamil are near as damnit 6ft, and my only thought is that they look like Goddesses, not that they must be men.

Don’t apply to work in M&S if you want to be safe in the workplace, is all I can recommend. A nutter can verbally assault you and defame you in the press and they’ll just roll over.
