10 ways women are The Worst at music festivals
THERE’S SOMETHING about music festivals that really brings out the worst in people. Ladies, what gets into ye at all?
Don’t worry ladies, the lads are in for it next.

Inexcusable in real life, but in festival life, it’s apparently no bother.
2. These

Bindis are on their way to becoming as ubiquitous as the flower crown. Watch out.
4. Sitting on a tall lad’s shoulders

This is why we pack ONE HUNDRED DENIER TIGHTS, PEOPLE. It’s the only way.

It’s just not feasible. Mark our words: one hundred deniers!
9. Willingly showing people their arse cheeks

They’re lovely, but most people would just rather not see them.
10. Taking photos of people on the campsite

No one looks their best on a festival campsite. Reserve the selfies for when we’re actually all dolled up, back at home.
