That seems fair, based on a comparison of your respective avatars. Rob is obviously investing more time and effort, taking it seriously. You're taking care of Baby.

It occurs to me that people who relentlessly complain about excessive PC/SJWs are as emotional as the ones they're outraged over. I imagine they'd like to make all those crazy SJWs just STFU. A pot/kettle sort of thing. Excessive PC, while I don't agree with it, has never harmed me, so I guess I don't get all the excessive pushback. There will always be stupid/irrational/extreme people. I try to ask myself: is this potentially harmful, or merely annoying as fuck? Gotta pick my battles. ETA: This is not to say I never get offended. I do. But being offended is not being harmed. This is part of the disconnect with extreme SJWs, and I can't help but notice that it's very similar in nature to the reaction from their critics. Suppression of speech? Please. Let me know when someone throws you in jail, as opposed to disinviting you to their party. Do you perceive me as overly emotional? I find SJWs annoying, but I don't spend my days trolling them or looking for ways to hurt them. It's about more than being disinvited from message boardsparties, though. In academia (where, fortunately, I no longer am), they have a considerable amount of power over both students and faculty, which means they are shaping the way a lot of new entries into the workforce behave and perceive things. There are consequences to this. There are consequences to people being able to organize dogpiles and social media storms against their enemies. There are consequences to the alt-righters doing it as well. |

I doubt your dedication. And now you've become emotional. SMDH.

I do twice Rob's job while wearing a gown and carrying around an infant as large as I am! What do I have to do to get the credit I deserve around here?!
I'm putting together a list of demands. Meanwhile, who wants to sign my online petition?

I feel I've been a bit harsh. Let me take you to dinner, after which I will hit on you, at which point you will see your true value.
P.S. please get a babysitter.

Oh great, now I'm being sexually harassed. This is a hostile work environment.
I should flounce.

I think, as regards academia, that it's largely a "get off my lawn" thing: college students have always been that group that older folks shake their heads at. Though, if and where it affects curricula, yeah, we need to speak against that. |

To wit: I work a full time job, I cook your dinner, and still have the energy to parade around in my underwear being sexy for your entertainment. Cuz I'm superhuman. Fuck that noise. Bring home carryout and I may let you remove these flannel pajamas and have your way with me.  |

Bring home carryout and I may let you remove these flannel pajamas and have your way with me. KFC or Chinese?  That commercial's a good illustration of historical perspective. All the talk about "white male privilege" these days? No historical perspective at all. The 50s, sexist as they were, was the beginning of the end of the peak WMP years, and it's been downhill all the way since then. By the late 70s, when that commercial was made, there was immediate, if not universal, outrage, because the WMP era was already in serious retreat. Miss Enjoli was a throwback appeal to peak WMP, and even by 1978 the Genie had escaped the bottle, never to be redomesticated. WMP has been dying for decades. The pale vestiges of WMP these days are but shadows on the wall of it's glory days, which is why those with historical perspective see it as less of a long-term concern than younger generations. It's been dying since long before any college students thought to get outraged about it. And nothing proves the demise of WMP better than flannel PJs and carryout.  I'm a member of the post-peak-WMP generation, and find flannel PJs and carryout sexy.  |
