Yeah, it’s like calling women drama queens. Since men agree most women are drama queens, calling them drama queens is not sexist.

Except of course it’s sexist.

Both of the above is sexist.

Most men stay with their wife / girlfriend when she’s giving birth and show her support. Don’t know a single father who hasn’t unless he didn’t make it in time. Those who can’t make it regret it their entire lives.

Now stop defending sexism. It’s not a good look.

I think those situations aren't equal at all.... One is an insult towards women in a derogatory way and the other is surprise at a difference in streotype/prejudice.

Use a better example like: It's like finding out a woman wants to go back to work immediately and the dad is quiting his job to raise the baby and do the housework.

Both are sexisim (showing a prejudice) but your example was not on equal footing at all....

And also confusing >> calling them drama queens is not sexist. Except it is sexist

You don’t think those assuming men are mostly unsupportive of their wives is an insult to men? That the stereotype of the disconnected dad is sexist?

Those two are on very equal footing because women are not drama queens and men actually are good parents.

Do you also think that white people can’t experience racism?

white people experience prejudice they dont experience systemic racism. your argument is in bad faith and based in the idea that everyone currently alive is experiencing equal treatment.

Prejudice based on race.... Which would be 🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁 racism! 🥳🎆🎉🎉🎉

And what you are saying would only apply to countries that have the systematic issue.

So if a KKK member went to Nigeria and called black people a bunch of horrible words/racial slurs, he would simply be prejudiced? Not racist?
