I love it when that happens and hate how surprised I am when it does, because the surprise means it's a rare response.

Sometimes a person just needs to go, "Oh, I didn't consider it from that perspective. Sorry, my bad, let me rectify that."

We should be grateful when we get called out, in my experience it means we're trusted enough to make the right decision and be better rather than doubling down and being trash about it.

Anita gets called out all the time and yet she doubles down all the time.

I'm really curious to know what it is this person said that was so sexist.
-
-
Lol That's what I'm thinking. If that's true then this would not be the first time she overreacted. But I don't like jumping to conclusions.
-
No, there is no chance it was anything egregious. Even if it were, just call the guy a dick and move on.
-
Agreed
-
So she shouldn't kindly talk to him and explain why it's sexist?
-
Not of its not sexist. Which it very well could be, but I haven't seen it so I can't come to that conclusion.
-
But by spending 6 tweets insinuating it isn’t you’ve done your job of being an antagonist without fully stepping into the role

I quite liked Michael Rosen until I called him out for sexism and he apologized immediately and fixed it, and then I *really* liked him.
-
I'm a nobody and he's a super famous national treasure, so I was impressed.

Admitting when we're wrong, and not having it effect your self worth, is one of the most empowering things a person can do.

Hey Anita, I know you may not be aware, but this is super sexist:pic.twitter.com/LlHQvwmE2o

It's almost like men are the ones most likely to violently impose power and authority on women, rather than the other way around. Another boring rehash of "reverse racism", yawn.
-
Regardless of history of oppression & today's facticity btw the sexes, do you truly not see that condemning some sort of act or perspective by one side & then embracing / forgiving the same behavior (from a purely logical perspective) from the other side is intellectual insanity?
-
It is intellectually dishonest to acknowledge oppressive history and gender inequality, then discuss sexism like these things are irrelevant.
-
That’s technically relevant.
-
It's actually not from a purely logical perspective. The history of past interactions has no bearing on the objective morality of any specific act. It's either right or wrong. And if you are constantly talking about past ills, it's equally wrong for you to do it in the present.
-
Contrary to the narrative that has seemingly taken over college campuses & the media, accumulating "oppression points" in the past does not give anyone the right to justify immoral acts/perspectives today. What was wrong back then still wrong today & the justifications are gross.
-
I guarantee that you would declare a "Trust No Woman" necklace as sexist. All I'm asking for is to try to take a step back from the perpetual cultural conditioning and view things objectively and equally from either perspective. Lord knows our world could use more of that.
