Really kind of sucks. And you are aware of it and feel it from a very young age, so it can make the whole process of adulthood after 25 particularly depressing.


Anyway, I know black people too :elmo: And they think all kinds of different things about a very large issue, because they're people and that's what people do :elmo::elmo:





That's such bullshit though, not to say that in an offensive way PB. I'm 30 yo man, and no woman of any old age is invisible to me, i will still greet and smile to them with respect as i would for anyone. Actually if a sexy 25 year old chick has a piece of shit rotten personality, she is invisible to me.

I think that if they saw a white chick explaning such detail about racism beyond what they care to decipher, they're gonna be offended that a white chick thinks she knows better what offends them.



I think there's something to this. I see a lot of people playing the shit out of some kind of 'white guilt' card these days. I think it's pretty sad, and pretty dumb, and I have several friends of darker skin tone that think this too.




I like the part that Sara, as a woman, also touched upon the sexist stereotyping involved
but the response is a bunch of guys pointing out the white girl talking about black issues
as if they weren't in the midst of doing essentially the same sort of thing




Sexist? So all the TV commercials with women doing the laundry or dishwashing need to be extinguished to. Its all gotta go!




well you've talked to all the black women in your life about how much they love housework, so maybe they love the commercials
but, yes, the idea that women should be relegated to housework is harmful
if you do not comprehend how then maybe you just do not want to

And men in the car or tool commercials, same thing, its gotta go!




If you are a man and that is how you feel, will trust your judgement

trees said:
From now on, only unisex animal characters will be used in laundry or dish soap commercials, because it's unhealthy to imagine even an effigy of a woman doing those tasks.




I love how you went so quickly to the most absurd and sensationalist idea you could think of

Quote:

trees said:
To think of it, humans need to stay off TV all together. Unisex animal characters only, from now on. That'll do the trick to stamp out sexism and racism and any other 'ism' that may be looming beyond our current sights.




To reaffirm
my statement was expressing finding comedy in a bunch of guys talking about the icongraphy of women and how women love it so much
while also complaining that white people talk too much on black issues and black people don't appreciate that

but bringing up sexism at all has resulted in directing the conversation into absurdism
this implying that discussion of issues of sexism is in turn totally absurd

I don't even know how it's sexist though, Tantrika. Because it's an aunt who cooks? Virtually every aunt I have loves to cook. And they don't do it for a man, they do it because they enjoy it.

Whatever though, I really don't care. It's a logo of a syrup for fuck's sake :lol:

Sara provided a pretty good account
but surely your friend Jack will be more comedic and not have the women's issues mixed in when you chuckle together about it

I'm difficult to offend, no worries. That's nice and all, but realistically that's an issue I think pretty much every woman feels at one point or another, so...:shrug: Guess we're all wrong.


And I know it's not like your fault or anything, I think a lot of this mentality is sort of self imposed, but the whole idea of feminism is to break out of the self defeating kind of attitude.


@Niffla, sorry I wasn't singling you out. I started to detail a professional mentor from a couple years a bit because she is an older black lady that has had a huge influence in my life, and then just kind of realized I was doing the same thing and just decided to type that instead :facepalm:. I do have to get back in touch with her and pick her brain a little about the Aunt Jemima thing.

A lot of times I don't know when to be serious and I joke too much about stuff. I know it's a very sensitive topic and I shouldn't make light of it. Especially not being in the position to see it from a woman's perspective.

I promise if we do end up discussing it today I won't mock it and chuckle about it okay :hug:

yeah, and let us be fair and recognize that most professional business serving janitors are prolly male
as it is sort of an industrial-adjacent job

but the more tangible part of the issue
which is thankfully being mitigated as time goes on
is the imagery that housekeeping is the primary or only outlet for a woman
with things like engineer or scientist being things that seem shrouded away and for exceptional women, rather than a commonplace and attainable livelihood
if that makes snes?

You're well aware that her feelings are directly related to her perception of other's feelings, an appropriate response is elucidation and that's what he provided. One should not have to share genders to share thoughts and opinions.

cannot give you a good answer on that sadly
my own perspective(s) are a mess of everything
shunning "women's work" and practicing a "get in the kitchen" attitude when studying pickup artistry and pretending to be a man

then sort of a whiplash effect as a trans woman
which has included my mother telling me that tolerating cleaning up after other people and doing more than your own share in that regard
is a defining part of being a woman
and to do it with a smile and reassure everyone you don't mind when you have guests and have to do even more

I did not think of the janitor angle, guess I never put much thought into who his character was supposed to be other than a strong dude who cares a lot about things being clean. I will say it definitely seems to be marketed towards home use.

women do they inside chores and men do the outside chores, I will do the dishes though if I can waste water and leave it running the whole time, I find the running water to be soothing, almost like a meditation
