Global News did an experiment a while back. The men wore the same thing, on-air, for a week. Then the women did the same thing on the following week. Wanna guess what the results of this experiment were?
I’m glad the emails to the station were curious and not complainy, from the couple I saw. Kind of seemed like “yep women are observant and intelligent and naturally asked a question about a rare occurrence out of curiosity“
Presumably some of the people writing in would structure the world in a less misogynistic fashion, were we to give them magic wands, but they still made observations in today’s world. I would’ve been really sad if all the emails were taking digs at the anchors!
I didn’t read through them but I saw a few as they passed and I’m pretty sure I saw at least a couple iterations of “did they run out of clothes”, which felt pretty nasty to me
Wanna guess if it was men or women who profit the most from the relentless consumption machine? Wanna guess if it was men or women who controlled women’s livelihoods based on their conformance to their standards of femininity, until, like, one generation ago? Lol
Sex & gender discrimination is a way, one of the most important ways, in which we are divided in order to make class oppression possible.
So I agree, blame the 0.1%, but the only way you can actually do anything about that is by healing the gender divide, and you’re not going to do that by pretending everything is fine and equal when it’s not.
The 0.1% are the reason why women are oppressed, sure, but that doesn’t mean it’s not happening.
I might be mistaken, but I’m pretty sure about half of this 0.1% are women. The ultra rich aren’t single and they have kids.
I agree with you that gender discrimination is one of the many ways to divide the people, but I don’t see how healing the gender divide will end the growing wealth inequality.
This is such a non-sequitur that I’m really not sure what it means. Care to enlighten? Is the “joke” that I am a woman and therefore must change my clothes often? Not your best work
I see no mention of it so why don’t you enlighten us with the facts instead of guesses.
and I get your silly little point. But there is such a thing as internalised prejudices and internalised discrimination; so your “clever” little point does nothing to take away from the fact that the scrutiny was greater on women than the men-presenting anchors. lol.

stop blaming either of the two 50%s, it’s the fault of the 0.1%
Who’s in the 0.1%?

You agree that it’s a way to divide people, but you don’t think more united people will help against wealth inequality?
Not about time you changed your clothes sweetheart? 😂

thank you for likening me to the messiah but that’s a bit much
Don’t be so hard on yourself, no one’s crucified you for treason yet.
