    Wondering where Trump's (and others) use of Pocahontas and mockingly invoking The Trzil of Tears fits in this convetsation

    I have seen Sen Warren referred to in those terms right here.
    By same people that misunderstand the nature and history of Jewish/Muslim relations.

    Because you know what we don’t discuss nearly enough?

    The white male experience. ����*♀️

    Your complaint about having a story on a while male is kinda the reason why this thread exists.

    how tolerant of you. If anything I think its the reverse. You just assume any general talk about boys means white boys. You want to talk about non white boys then lets talk. When do brown people get held accountable for racist stereotypes like white people do. Wheres the talk about toxic culture relating to thug culture? When do we talk about affirmative action in sports because white people are very underrepresented in some sports and we have been told thats proof of racisim.



    That article is probably a pile of **** written by a limp wristed gay Liberal who wants to feminize men.




    edit - now that I see the name attached. I never had anything against this woman as she worked for ESPN long after I stopped watching but you dont have to hate white people to support equality for black people. She sounds just as racist as Trump.

    Geez I thought someone might actually read the article, think about what they read and there might actually be a conversation.

    Count me to actually be slightly on the side of thinking Esquire is getting a raw deal here. I certainly agree that the White male experience is anything but marginalized, but there’s still a story to be told. Let’s hold off and see where Esquire takes both the article and the series before aimlessly griping over it.

    Since everything is so serious nowadays, I thought I'd share a little politically incorrect humor (at the risk of jeopardizing my own future political prospects).

    My wife and I were celebrating my birthday at a restaurant this week and our waiter was of Mexican ancestry. We were chatting with him throughout the meal and when desert came out he told us a joke. He asked us what was the best sport for Mexicans (btw my wife's biological father is Mexican, important to keep in mind for later joke). And the answer according to him was crosscountry.

    Another waiter chuckled at this. Turns out he is Canadian. I told him I had a good Canadian joke. Why do Canadians like it doggie style? Answer: That way both get to watch the hockey game. Well he thought that was the funniest joke ever and he immediately texted it to family and friends. I don't get Canadians.

    Finally, some truly politically inappropriate humor. Courtesy of me. There is a Starbucks in town I occasionally frequent (that itself is a confession of highly inappropriate behavior). It is next to a Bank of America. There is a fence between the two. One evening my son and I stopped at the Bank of America to get some cash and then decided to go to the Starbucks. I told him that in honor of his Mexican ancestry we would go through the hole in the fence instead of going back out to the street and walking on the sidewalk.

    Apologies for the lameness of the jokes and any offense caused.

    When Google conducted a study recently to determine whether the company was underpaying women and members of minority groups, it found, to the surprise of just about everyone, that men were paid less money than women for doing similar work.

    Israel ?

    It is disturbing that Rep. Omar continues to perpetuate hurtful anti-Semitic stereotypes that misrepresent our Jewish community. Additionally, questioning support for the U.S.-Israel relationship is unacceptable.

    Israel has and remains a stalwart ally of the United States because of our countries’ shared interests and values. I condemn her remarks and believe she should apologize for her offensive comments.

    Anyone who believe companies pay women less because they are women are anti-data and just logically stupid

    You have to pay women more to close the gap in their magical formula. When you apply their own formula to their organizations they fail every time.

    and Hedy LAmar was turned down for roles because her cup size was too small

    Are you really making your point about who does and doesn't get cast in a bio pic ?

    Grasshopper, you need a girlfriend or a cat or something.
