It's so funny how you all use the exact same lines and logic racists do to excuse racism.

What happened to treating people like individuals?

You think selection bias is irrelevant? WHERE is she a nurse at?

LMAOOOO yeah honestly it’s random text on a random picture from our viewpoint. How is that person so sure of the subjects’ beliefs, background, convictions, etc.

We have people in here telling us her views on men, the data she’s collected and displayed, her extensive background in the job, the amount of thousands of deliveries she’s been privy to - and it’s like ok - what’s her name.

That’s it - what’s her name. Simple question. They know all this about her somehow magically, but not a single one can tell you even basic info about her lol.

It's sexism because half of the entire population of the planet isn't dog shit. That's like saying black people are thieves because some black people have stolen things.

It's not racist to be surprised a black person isn't a criminal, it's just reality! - this guy, probably.

Does that mean a cop who racially profiles is okay because he knows his job better than you and see people of whatever race do8ng crime during his shift?

If no then why the fuck is it okay for a nurse to do so?

Do you think the one and only problem with racial profiling by the police is that they experience mild surprise when they see a black person following the law?

Lowering the stakes doesn't improve the logic

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

No absolutely not

Do you think the largest problem with sexism is suprise that a man is a caring husband?

u/SeanTCU Apr 24 '26

tbh I think the biggest problem with sexism is the inability of some men to empathise with women in any way and their propensity towards self-victimisation at the first hint of criticism.

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

You think that is the biggest problem with sexism? Not the executions i places like Iran and Saudi arabia, not the removal of abortion rights spreading in the western world? Thats a wold take but okay

I'd argue that I'm describing the cause and you the effects.

u/NUKE---THE---WHALES Apr 24 '26

the inability of some men to empathise with women

Thats a two way street, because i know for a fact that most women wouldnt want to be stereotyped like OOP did

The lack of empathy from OOP is not going to generate any empathy, I can promise you that

I hope you can take this as geniune advice and not just an attempt to win an argument, because its something I had to learn the hard way and doing so basically saved my life.

You'll never understand the true value of empathy until you can stop thinking of it as transactional. The more of it you can give away, the more you'll learn to reflect it back onto yourself, and that can cause miracles for your self worth.

And also that everyday women are apparently terrible judges of character and having children with people who don't give a shit about them.

It's not sexism, it's reality.
