They are not my standards. Describing reality does not mean you’re happy about it. And yeah, that’s sexism, patriarchy, whatever you want to call it.

They are not my standards. Describing reality does not mean you’re happy about it. And yeah, that’s sexism, patriarchy, whatever you want to call it.
There is a social context that makes gender-swapping not entirely symmetrical. Men and women are not treated equally by a large portion of the population. These differences in treatment have repeating patterns and tendencies that create a bias that does not average out.
Just to be clear, both men and women suffer from these biases. Think “provide for family”, “parental leave”, “children custody”, “real men don’t cry” for men. Women get the short end of stick in terms of autonomy and respect though…
That’s pretty nice, it’s basically additional leave days! I still prefer European style with unlimited sick leave, but you need a certificate from your physician.
Where’s the rabbit though?
Some people use quotes for emphasis, though. So, not sure if this faculty’s on our side.
What’s the stuff in the background on the right?
Yeah, it’s Centurii-chan. Here’s their Insta: https://www.instagram.com/centuriichan/
Another possible interpretation I haven’t seen in the comments: it’s possibly about capitalism under which companies fund school where you learn that it’s normal to be a wage slave or something like that?
I checked for others who, like me, are too European to understand the joke: 50°F is 10°C.
Of course. And I’ll continue to do so as long as advertisement is detrimental to my online experience. If it wastes my time by forcing me to watch an ad before a video, if it distracts me from reading a text because of animations, if it tries to scam or shock me, I’m better off blocking it. I’m not against advertisement as communication that a useful product or service exists, I’m against advertisement abuse and greed.
I’ll happily pay for, donate to, or otherwise support services important to me that need and deserve it.
Overeating is bad for sleep, isn’t it?
