More like it's uncommon to see in her work . If it were a random saying it then I'd say it's sexism but it's a whole medical practitioner who has probably seen countless births so if she is surprised it's because it isn't something they see all the time not because she's taking a jab at men or whatever.
I don't think it can just be labeled as sexism though because they haven't given a reason or trait that makes men not be there for their partners. Some are in the room but keep their distance, some are right next to their partner, some don't even make it into the room .
“I, a corrections officer for a region in which there is a statistically anomalously high black population, express surprise when it turns out that the black inmate turned out to be innocent all along, because usually I don’t happen to see that happen, given the fact that all my prisoners are post-conviction, and am phrasing this as ‘when your black inmate ends up released because it turns out the prosecution messed up and they were innocent all along’ with an image of my face very surprised but don’t worry it’s not racist because I legitimately see a lot of bad black people”
Edit: also, pointedly, other commenters are saying that in the original video it was actually s response to the man getting slapped for saying this, and not about the man saying this, so the actual original person wasn’t being sexist but the person taking the screenshot was just some rando
This a bizzare and very misguided metaphor that doesn't work at all. Men aren't oppressed on a systematic way due to their gender and the few things that do negatively effect men exclusively on the basis of gender is always a microcosm of misogyny because whether you like it or not society has heavily catered to men. Some men are oppressed, but it's never because they're men, but because they're apart of another minority group that is mistreated by society. Comparing anecdotal experiences of men being absent / neglectful parental figures to the prison system feels overdramatic and comes off like a post Elon Musk would retweet to own the libs
I disagree. I don’t think most black guys have a preference for being told they’re statistically more likely to be deadbeats in the delivery room specifically because they’re men compared to being told they’re statistically more likely to be deadbeats in the delivery room specifically because they’re black
Okay, but no one is telling men they're deadbeats in the delivery room? That's not what this post is about, and this doesn't happen.
If you need to imagine a bizaree convoluted scenario for the point youre trying to make even have a chance of making sense, then the argument you're trying to make is probably really dumb and poorly thought out.
Again, no body is telling black men they're deadbeats in the delivery room, or in any medical/real life doctoral setting. The only reason we're even talking about it is because people in this thread missed the entire point of the original post because they got so caught up in an imaginary slight against men that the evil nurse made by daring to hypothetically make a critique about meaning being more likely to be deadbeats, which for clarity was never actually said and only originated from dudes in this thread who missed the point entirely.
If you think this is even remotely comparable to systemic racism or the industrial prison complex, which is the point you tried to make in your comment, is an insanely stupid thing to believe. Again, I want to clarify, the comparison being made here is that saying men are deadbeats is comparable to state sanctioned slavery that targets minority groups, that's the point youre trying to be make here, that's just straight r worded bro.
