  Yet another one for the “Lemmy isn’t sexist” collection.

  So true equality is “sexist”? Good to know.

  The ultimate test of bigotry of any kind is to take the terms in contention and flip them. If it reads vastly different, you’ve found the bigotry in the one that is not rage-inducing.

  Here we have a female therapist failing in her job with a male patient.

  Now have a male therapist say the exact same thing to a female patient. See how that version plays out in public vs the first. Torches and pitchforks in favour of stringing up the male therapist, no?

  The entire greentext was anti-male gender bigotry writ large, and an epic fail by the therapist to go beyond her gender-unique experiences in order to understand how wildly different the typical man’s experiences are.

  As you have demonstrated, the cultivated ignorance by so-called “anti-sexist” people is absolutely stunning.
