Chrissie Russell: I'm proud to be a 'woman of a certain age' who won't take crap from the likes of Gregg Wallace

Gregg Wallace's comments downplayed accusations of inappropriate behaviour by dismissing concerns as mere complaints from "middle-class women of a certain age,’ suggesting that such views are not worth serious consideration.

Many women find Wallace's phrasing dismissive, feeling that it undermines legitimate grievances. This reaction highlights the ongoing struggle to be taken seriously in discussions about inappropriate behaviour and accountability.

The backlash against Wallace indicates a societal shift where formerly muted voices are now vocal, demanding respect and validation for their experiences, regardless of socio-economic status.

Wallace’s choice of words reflects an ingrained attitude towards women’s voices, especially those deemed 'middle-class.' This highlights the need for more inclusive dialogue and accountability.
