Phil Neville denied he is sexist and said he has huge respect for women, in his first media appearance after being appointed England women's head coach.
Neville apologised a day after taking the job for past tweets about women.
"I had to - I didn't like the words used Cheap NCAA Shirts ," said the 41-year-old. "I'm not a sexist. I've lived my life right."
The appointment has been criticised because of Neville's lack of coaching and women's football experience but he denied the job was a "stepping stone".
"I'm England manager. Any job after this will be a step down," Neville told BBC sports editor Dan Roan.
The former England defender has only ever managed one game - at Salford City, a team he co-owns - but has coached former club Manchester United, England Under-21s and Spanish side Valencia.
"I'm qualified for the job Cheap NCAA Hoodies , I have a [coaching] Pro Licence. It's to work in all aspects of football.
"I've worked at elite level. I've worked abroad. Some of the players are world class. I'm best qualified for this job.
"I didn't get it by default. I didn't just get handed the keys to women's football. This is not something that has been plucked from the top of a tree.
"I had to undergo stringent tests and presentations, six and seven-hour interviews with the Football Association, psychometric profiling - it was a long process. But ultimately I'm the best man for the job and shouldn't be embarrassed about that."
The Football Association said last week that Neville would not be charged over his controversial tweets.
In one tweet, he suggested women would be too "busy making breakfastgetting kids ready" to read his messages Cheap NCAA Jerseys , while other users picked up on comments he had made when interacting with his sister and with his wife - and one in which he joked he had "just battered the wife".
"The words in 2018 are wrong, the words in 2011 were wrong. It's not a reflection of my true character," Neville added.
The former Manchester United and Everton full-back told BBC Sport the reference saying he had "battered the wife" was in relation to beating her at sport on holiday.
'One of the best moments of my career'
Neville met the Lionesses players for the first time at a training camp in Spain last week, and described doing so as one of the "best moments" of his career.
Asked if he had ever watched a women's football match Cheap College Hats , he said: "I've seen Man City women's games, Valencia women's games.
"I know women's football. Do I know everything? No. I learn fast.
"At Valencia I knew three players, and in a week I knew everything about the club and in six months I was fluent in Spanish. I'm a fast learner."
England women were losing semi-finalists under Mark Sampson at the 2017 European Championship and finished third at the 2015 World Cup.
Neville said it was up to him to take the team to the "next level".
"[I have] immense pride and excitement to take over the third best team in world," he said. "We have players who have desire and determination to be the best.
"The foundations are so strong Cheap College Shirts , performances have been great."(Agencies)
The NEC Code Update 鈥?What it All Means
Even if you’re new to the electrician trade, you’ve likely heard of the NEC (National Electrical Code). Okay, so “NEC code update” is a bit redundant with the word “code” used twice. It seems only human nature to want to clarify things鈥攍ike “PIN number” so that we know we’re not talking about a slender metal rod with a sharp point. But that’s the point of the code updates鈥攖o clarify things and to make things in the industry even safer.
Over 5000 code change proposals were considered for the NEC in 2011 and nearly 3,000 public comments were judged during the review process. Also Cheap College Hoodies , three new articles were added.
Keeping Pace with Technology
This baby has been around since 1897, so it has seen lots of changes. Much of the electrical equipment we know so well today wasn’t even a dream back then. New technology breeds new safety concerns. Even the fact that today’s world is increasingly more electronic means that there is more demand for electricity. That means more wires crowded into a static space. New demands are being placed on this technological resource and the code needs to keep up.
Refinements in Safety Protocols
The NEC is an organic document. It lives and breathes with the experiences of the industry. When a former standard is found to be lacking in some fashion, recommendations are made to take into account factors which previously had been unknown or ignored as unimportant. The code grows and changes as new observations are made and considered.
Clarification in Wording and Organization
Occasionally, what was formerly considered adequate wording in the code may be realized as potentially confusing or misleading. These problems are a matter of semantics and organization. Some of the changes may seem subtle or even insignificant Cheap College Jerseys , but the point of such changes is one of achieving greater clarity and greater ease in finding needed material.
