(Dagbladet): You’ve had to wait a long time between each time a woman has won some of television concepts where physics plays a role.
Most difficult for ladies have been in “Masters champion “where there have been male winners all seven seasons the program have gone on tV.
the series which however stand out in the opposite direction is” expedition Robinson “, where nine out of fourteen winners – 64 percent – have been women. Last out was Northerner Maiken Saether Olsen (23) in last year’s edition.
– I think many people working with reality TV is good at telling stories, but not to create gender-neutral contests. I’ve been obsessed with fair competition from the very beginning, says Falck.
– If a part of the competition, for example, speed up, where men have an advantage, you must mix your element of anything else that could slow them down, he says, and mentions memory, balance, intelligence, precision, calculation of various kinds and static competitions exercises where the sexes set relatively alike.
– Crisis
in “expedition Robinson” comes most competitions in which strength plays a role as part of the team competitions, where both women and men on both teams. Later teams merged and compete individually.– Men and women are quite similar at all other than physical force. But a year we had actually predominance of balance, where women can have an advantage, and when I had a stomach ache. It was crisis, says Falck.
When Vibeke Skofterud lost finals in this year’s “Masters Champion” was the seventh time in a row that a man was victorious.
Former kickboxer “Masters Champion” -deltaker Mette Solli reacted strongly to the way final exercises were planned on, believing that competition was not fair sexes – and also received support from, among others, former handball player trine haltvik.
– I can not see the “Masters Champion” – it is a horrible program when it comes to gender neutral contests. It is an insult to the female athletes and I do not actually why women agree to participate, says Robinson program leader and also mentions Dag Erik Pedersen knit comment:
– The Failed in every way – both as humor and explanation of the types of contests they have.
Unequivocal positive
Remote Manager Petter Wallace NRK has nothing to spare for Falck’s “Masters Champion” statements.
– Christer Falck could by all means it. It was worse on our great athletes, women and men, had such an attitude, or worse, our audience.
– “Masters Champion” is a series that engages an extremely large audience in all age classes, one of the most popular programs on Norwegian television whatsoever, and the position of the series has had in nearly a decade . The feedback we have received from participants of both sexes has been that they have had an unequivocally positive experience of participating in the series. It counts probably a bit more for us than what Falck may think, he said.
Wallace has previously pointed out that NRK has adapted some exercises to participants’ weight and gender.
– Therefore, no Masters champion based on a single trait. One must be a one in a number, if not all, areas, this year’s worthy champion Thor Hushovd proved all too clearly.
Under Tall
In the “71 Degrees North” has 6 of 23 winners have been women, while in “Farmen” has 3 of 11 winners have been the same.
– in “Farmen” did not meet men and women to duel before the finals, if the last two remaining are a man and a woman. And the final is always a knowledge contest, where sets men and women usually quite similar, says “Farmen” -pressekontakt Alex Iversen in TV 2.
– duel until it’s man against man, or woman against woman. It is not necessarily so that brute strength is what brings you the furthest in “Farmen”. “Farmen” is primarily a social game, and to get far, it is also important to have skills in all the different areas you need to master in order stay alive on a farm, he said.
