CHAUVINISTIC northern men are inhibiting womens sexual expression in an attempt to hide their own inadequacies, the organisers of an erotic festival beginning in Manchester said.
The director of adult exhibition Erotica said the show, which opened at the city's G-Mex Centre on Friday, could be the last of its kind to be held in the North because too few people are attending.
While more than 70,000 saw the show at Londons Olympia in November, only 20,000 people are expected in Manchester this weekend. Event director Savvas Christodoulou says he will pull the plug on next years northern exhibition if numbers do not increase.
Mr Christodoulou said: "Northerners just haven't responded in sufficient numbers."
