Firstly I wish to say that I have absolutely nothing against Asian women running, but I'm not too sure about their racism.
What I did question when I saw about this on the TV News was, would it be allowed to have an exclusively English Women Run ? The obvious answer is No, it wouldn't.
I do remember reading about the National Black Police Association, and thinking the same thing. Would a National White Police Association be allowed ? Of course not. White Policemen would NOT be allowed to start an organisation that rejected prospective members on account of their skin colour, or ethnicity; and rightly so!
In these times when integration is so important, should we really allow Asian groups to separate themselves (by race) from non-Asians ? What do they have against running alongside English women anyway ?
What are they frightened of ? Come on you Asians; white English folks aren't so bad !

Remember Black Lives Matter - free pass to riot during lockdowns, White Lives Matter - instant jail sentence for peaceful protest.
I've always seen proper integration as being very important for the future of a 'Multicultural Britain'. Without it, even in these seemingly unimportant matters, we are lost. And the very people who should want that 'integration' are the ones who are widening the gulf. I find that very sad.
It doesn't make any sense at all does it? It's just promoting racism as far as I can see, what's wrong with one association that covers everyone regardless of ethnicity?
'All Women Run' would have been better, rather like 'All Lives Matter'. Division does no good.
I agree, it should be All Women. Why make such a rascist division.
Integration and assimilation are so important, we don't need ANYTHING that divides us.
There is going to be division in all aspects of life. We are not all the same. I was challenged about my Lady Truckers Club, isn't that sex discrimination? Back in 1986 it wasn't, maybe now it would be. Inclusion or exclusion, which is it to be? In my defense I did allow a trans woman to join. They lived their life as they saw fit.
Grrr! In spite of myself, I agree with your point Crozier. Mind you over in Asia, Asian women frequently have "the runs" owing to the heat and food hygiene.
How about English Women's Run? No? Perhaps because they are not and do not want to be English? Fair enough. There are plenty of Asian nations that identify with being Asian rather than English. Oh, but wait. Japan does not allow immigration keeping all citizens as one kind. How boring! I'm proud to be American and I could care less where someone's ancestors came from. Including my own (German and Russian). See what I mean? :)
Sharia Courts in the UK.
Nice one YP! Why didn't I think of that myself?
Absolutely. I know, and am friends with, people from all over the world. I would hate to think that they wanted to alienate themselves from me. I want proper integration.
Don't get me started... There is even a Muslim Council of Great Britain.
