lol calling it sexism doesn’t make it any less real

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

No, it is very real that she is expecting men to not be pressent and are being discriminatory towards them for that reason, thereby perpetuating the negative gendernorm and pushing more men towards such behaviour.

u/SupremeTeamKai Apr 24 '26

Where's the discrimination

-5

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

The presumption of a man acting badly based on his gender

11

u/SupremeTeamKai Apr 24 '26

That's the stereotype, I'm asking how this stereotyped was used to discriminate.

1

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

The surprise that some broke the stereotypical behaviour.

You do understand calling someone "one of the good ones" is in itself discrimination even if it isn't negative to the recipient right?

12

u/pottymouthgrl Apr 24 '26

That’s not discrimination either

u/Nostromeow Apr 24 '26

Seriously, « saying he’s one of the good ones is discrimination » like what ? bro has never lived through any kind of discrimination and it shows lmao

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

You don't think "one of the good ones" statements and rethoric is discrimination?

14

u/pottymouthgrl Apr 24 '26

That might be but this isn’t that.

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

Why is she suprised then?

3

u/Sweet_Try_8932 Apr 24 '26

Because most men are awful during delivery. Get it through your thick skull.

1

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

So you agree it is sexism great

3

u/Sweet_Try_8932 Apr 24 '26

You argue like a 13 year old bully.

Wait . . . are you 13? That would make your comments make more sense.

I don’t think you know what discriminate means is the point.

What unfair treatment is being offered to him in this situation?

Having a negative opinion about someone can be prejudice. Acting on that feeling to have a tangible impact on them is discrimination.

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

Did I say she was discriminatory towards him?

The unfair treatment is that of have a preconceived notion that no man would be decent during their wifes labour and delivery.

And she is acting on it, se is standing there expressing clear suprise and decided to make a video about it.

2

u/c3p-bro Apr 24 '26

There is no unfair treatment if she does not interact with him at all.

And the text was added after the video which was about something else.

So again, what harm was caused to the man in this situation? Merely having a prejudiced thought is not harm caused.

But nobody said that.

1

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

Then why is she suprised?

8

u/SupremeTeamKai Apr 24 '26

Idk, you tell me.

1

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

I told you why i belive she was suprised, i think that reason is sexism, now why do you think she is suprised

3

u/SupremeTeamKai Apr 24 '26

Not sure, it seems like it's a clip of something cut out of context with some words pasted over it. It's interesting that you assume it's cause of sexism, maybe it's internalized?

1

u/Dr-Assbeard Apr 24 '26

Well take a look see through the top comments, i think you will see most people have the same take.

But with deeper reaserch you are right, this is her reaction to domestic violence against the man who said that to his wife

Yeah, having a stereotype in your mind must then be attached to action/inaction, including speech, to be come discrimination. Otherwise it's a bad little voice in your head
