Don't be thinking I'm bracketing all young people in this category, there are just a select few but because of social media and 'influencer' status their terrible messages spread like wild fire. I also has two younger sisters who see it all and it is really not good for anybody.

It's just the experiences I've had with British women that I've been involved with.
I've got plenty of women friends who are English that I can happily spend time with who don't fit the same description.

And what makes you think I've had problems with the foreign women, anyway ?

I'm 52 and never been married.
If you start at 16, that means I've had 36 years of dating .. I'm not exactly putting it about, am I ? :D
With respect, genuinely, I see a list of 12 women of varying nationalities - to me, 12 relationships IS quite a number mate :D
Tart :P

Funny how such a number would regard a woman to be a **** etc yet for a bloke it's deemed ok.

All this seems quite simple to me. Describing someone as black is not racist or an insult unless it's followed or preceded by something derogotary or insulting, or it's being to used to discriminate in some way. It seems as though Kiko wasn't doing that. It is, however, apparently breaking a rule in football and so he shouldn't have done it, so if he gets punished he can't complain.

On the influencer thing, I also have a young impressionable daughter and the pressure and focus on young girls and women (and men to be honest) to look a certain way is immense, and I also find it a scary thought when I look to what she might be tempted to do to herself in the future because of it. In a fairly small workplace, four of the women I work with regularly have their lips filled and I find it baffling and a little bit worrying that they feel the need to alter themselves in that way.

Bit it's no different to peer pressure. It's exactly the same thing to me. They'll grow out of it as they get older. If it's make up and fashion, who cares. So long as it's no darker than that it's fine in my eyes...

Oh, and 12 isn't a high number of girlfriends across 36 years. That's only the foreign ones anyway. Double it and you're about there. I know several people way more promiscuous...
But it's like anything - you live one way and it's hard to see anything else. I don't think I could be married for twenty years. Not because I can't imagine loving someone that long but because people change...

Football and life are similar in many ways. Look how long Gary Kelly played for us - go back far enough and there would be many examples of club loyalty or one-club players. A lot less examples now, especially in the UK. Messi is probably the most famous one club player playing. How often would we now see a player with the same club for over 10 years.
