Bad Marc Ellis

A sociologist from (yes seriously) has criticised Marc Ellis for reinforcing traditional male chauvinist attitudes to on Sportscafe.

They do note though:

Ellis himself had once been filmed in a sado-masochistic outfit being led on a leash by Matthew Ridge through a gay part of Buenos Aires.
