I am self employed in a specialzed, resession resistent field with the potential for very high income in 20-+ hours of work a week.

There are a host of things that have allowed me to do this. There are, however, some inmate disadvantages due to my being male, in this particular field in my particular cultural setting. Which is kinda funny when you think about it.

Employment is not something I would have thought to have listed for myself unless I was unemployed, because I'm employed based on something I did, but if I were unemployed that may well be due to something beyond my control.

That said however, I am underemployed and underpaid for reasons beyond my control, since that makes sense now.

Ok, now I gotta go back to letting the mindfog do its thing.

Now, this is just damn stupid.  Of course giving your seat to a 7 months-pregnant woman isn't "sexist", any more than giving your seat to a person on crutches is being prejudiced about the handicapped.

7 months pregnant is essentially a "disability", albeit a temporary one and one for which the female body is designed...It's still - in my experience around pregnant women - really exhausting and uncomfortable.

Just what I'd expect a privileged cishet white devil man to say.  "Oh yes massa, thank you for your generous chair offering.  Now I shall reward you with sex."  A Proud Woman of Childbearing Capacity don't need your patronizing bullshit.  Shitlord.

Fuck, I've been spending way too much time on the wrong parts of the internet.

Apparently so.   :lulz:

I get a boot out of that attitude, by the way.  Being protective or solicitous to pregnant women is a species survival thing that's hard-wired into the primate brain.  The back of the brain is saying "protect the pregnant woman", not "If I'm polite here, I'll get some nookie".

Hell, it's the reason altruism is a survival trait.

I blame TumblrInAction.  I've been obsessed with the lengths thisisnotjapan will go to in order to deny Japan's imperialist past, but the rest of the idiocy there must be bleeding over.

Apparently, everything wrong in Japan is the result of colonialism.  Because, you know, Japan's ignoble history of being conquered and exploited by Western powers is a sad, but well known story.

The best part is they seem to be some kind of crazed weaboo, in denial that they themselves are not Japanese.

That's painfully absurd... it's "sexist" in the same way that offering a seat to an old man is "ageist" and offering a seat to a disabled person is "ableist". It's an example of equality being used as an excuse for lazy fucks to behave like selfish, childish assholes.

Or an excuse for people who are determined to bitch about sexism even when there isn't any there.

Either way, "asshole". 

The people who saw the behavior were pissed, and the people who sat around while she stood are making the excuse, so you are correct in this case.

That's the funny part.  The people bitching are hilarious...They get off watching cartoons, and they think this somehow puts them in touch with Japanese culture.  Reminds me of those wretched hippies who dig up Native American bits out here to "get in touch with their (non-existant) heritage".

Seriously, how insulting is THAT?  "I have studied cartoons, so I understand your culture".  At BEST, they understand Otakus, who are alienated from their culture...Meaning they (the weeaboos) MISSED.

Japanese people line-dancing, though...They pretty much hit the nail on the head.
