She also would have thrown back about having the dignity to leave Declan when she was cheated on whereas Megan is desperately clinging to Jai.”

During and after the time when Katie was splitting from Declan, she was standing up for herself and being more assertive.
Now she's back with Andy Spudgun, she's gone back to being passive and a bit drippy.

They need to put some balls back in to her!

Now you're saying Katie is "drippy" does this mean you've gone off her?

She can't win with some people!

Howdy, Sarah.

No, I haven't gone of Katie!

My post was more out of anger watching her taking verbal diarrhoea without any retaliation.
She did at least threaten to lamp one on Robert, the other night, so that was more like it

The double standards and internalised misogyny in real life won't ever stop if soaps/tv and other media that's consumed by all still demonizes women for their sex life whilst nothing is said about the men who do the same.

I liked Kate Oates' work before but the sexism and misogyny in the show has definitely increased under her. It would be fine if it was shown as unacceptable but it's portrayed as more than acceptable.”

Oh PURLEASE! The soaps are horribly misandrist - and so is a lot of real life. The way male characters are portrayed is usually appalling. Just look at how awful Robert has turned out, compared to his long suffering wife! And the show doesn't present a very pleasant view of bisexual men either - Robert is the sole example!
