Apart of that sending dick picks is dumb, her post sounds like classism at a full display. No matter that the capital is in education and not directly in money (but probably it is, too). I found this message pretty sad and upsetting. Itâs like a millionaire bragging in front of a homeless.
People love a moral reason to be racist, sexist or classist. Because what are you going to do? Most people are too fucking scared to call bullshit out when someone can just point at something slightly worse and claim your just giving a pass to that other thing.
Naw fuck the dude sending dick pics. And fuck this cunt for being a uppied shit stain.
Both people are terrible.
Fuck most people including me. People fucking suck.
Nah, most people are okay most of the time.
But we do all suck sometimes.
Pobody is nerfect.
People fucking suck.
This is perfectly right.
Educated, rich men still send unwanted dick pics

Nothing she wrote seems like classism to me. The way you put it, a lawyer should avoid mentioning heâs a lawyer as that would display he was educated and thus insulting people who couldnât.
Sheâs probably complaining with her friends and reflecting about what happens. In her work life she is a respected person who does important things which are recognised by her peers.
In her datings she has to go over people who can not come up with a better idea than to send a dick pic. This is a terrible thing, but some people may get desperate and accept some of these inepts. Sheâs reminding herself that sheâs doesnât really need to have these kinds of interactions.
Is there a classist message in there? I guess the main message is: Iâm a smart person, I donât need to put up with this. She does not insult those people as Poorâs or people who did not study. As far are we know people sending those pictures may be millionaires (and I wouldnât be surprised).

Academia is rife with bigots. This is an example of Horseshoe Theory in real life. Theyâre pigeonholed into their narrow track in life that they havenât spared much thought for other topics. Not all that different from someone who is uneducated and ignorant.
They over-estimate their proficiency in other areas by assuming because theyâve studied hard at one thing, they must be good at anything. At best they know of the concepts of the -isms and repeat the right words when prompted to do so. But catch them in a moment such as this and all is revealed.
The internet is historically like this on account of it leaning towards the academically privileged classes of the world. People conflate socially maligned behaviors with education and professional status.
All youâve done is reinforce that point. Because she is a scientist or because another person is a lawyer they are less deserving of this behavior??? As if a less privileged woman would be. You conveniently weaved your narrative around this. Education and class are inextricably linked.

I think people are taking issue with the way she uses some of the vocabulary to sound better than the dick shower. Now, she probably is better than the dick pic dude, but she is bragging a little by using some niche terminology.
I have no doubt it is jarring to be a tissue bioengineer and not receive better courtship than a picture of an erect schlong. Where I think she may have offended is when she said the person couldnât even pronounce saponification.
In your example, I think a lawyer might be fine in and of itself, but less so if they said âyou dummy, you donât even know what caveat emptor meansâ
Regardless, Iâm only trying to see the opposing argument. I still would say that most of the fault is on dick pic, but the poster might have been a bit of a terminology-dropper to gain some clout.

sheâs spend the whole fucking post about bragging how educated she is and what fancy words and concept she knows
