I’m fed up with reading Guardian articles that make use of male sporting analogies. I have absolutely no idea who Stuart Broad is and I guarantee the majority of women reading your editorial (16 January) wouldn’t either. Therefore your analogy is incomprehensible. Guys, just stop this blokey, pub-style chat and wake up to your female readership, for pity’s sake! It’s well past time.

• It’s not only north and south that are relative concepts (Letters, 15 January) – so is one’s country … at least on football terraces. As a proud lifelong supporter of Dover Athletic, I can note that away fans (especially from Maidstone United) have been known to chant “You’re French and you know you are”.
