People Are Destroying This Woman For Her Sexist ‘Lesson’ About How To Treat Your Man

It’s one thing to have to hear sexist men spout off about the way women should live their lives, but it’s another to see a woman doing the same thing to other women. Federalist writer Denise McAllister, who was recently let go from her job after writing a homophobic tweet, is under fire for her comments about the way husbands should be treated by their wives.

Writer Denise McAllister recently tweeted an extremely sexist ‘lesson’ about how wives should treat their husbands while they’re watching sports.

To which we say…

And Twitter was beyond pissed that McAllister would enforce such BS gender stereotypes.

American journalist and author Dana Schwartz was one of the many outraged tweeters.

 

Of course, some people (men) didn’t think it was so bad.

But things took a turn for the worst when HuffPost writer Yashar Ali commented on McAllister’s post.

And McAllister attacked Yashar’s sexuality.

She continued to spit horrifically homophobic words at Yashar and ended up losing her job because of it.

People quickly rushed to Ali’s defense, prompting McAllister’s feeble attempts to defend her own words.

And both of the publications McAllister wrote for, The Federalist and The Daily Wire, told her she was no longer welcome.

People Are Outraged Over This ‘Sexist’ Viral Photo Of A Little Boy And Girl In Scrubs

People on Twitter are outraged over a viral photo of two children for being offensive and sexist.

Twitter account Medical Shots, which tweets out health-related images and videos, posted a picture recently of a little boy and girl in scrubs. The boy is dressed in green with the words “Doctor in Training” printed on his back, whereas the girl dons all pink, the back of her shirt reading “Nurse in Training.”

“This is cute, isn’t it?” reads the caption on the image. The internet responded with a resounding “not at all,” questioning why the girl had to be the nurse and not the doctor, and arguing that gendered stereotypes imposed at such a young age contribute to institutionalized sexism.

One Twitter user “fixed” the photo so that the backs of both children read “health professional in training.”

While another desaturated it of all color, rendering the pinkand green of the scrubs indescernable.

“No, it’s sexist,” wrote Julietta LaBlanc. “You are forcing a ceiling on this young lady’s dreams. You are telling her: You can be a nurse and boys can be Doctors. Stay in your lane.”

A few male nurses “nope’d” out of there real quick.

Other Twitter users vented their frustration with an onslaught of gifs and memes.

In conclusion: Kids are cute. Promoting gender stereotypes is not.

Why We Desperately Need To Stop Telling Guys To ‘Man Up’

Feelings. They are not unfamiliar to us and in fact, everyone harbors them. Some showcase their feelings more than others, but we cannot deny that we have them even if we tried. As human beings that we are, we hold a special ability in which we are able to fabricate emotions. Sensitivity is a beautiful trait to hold because it makes you well..human. It’s just the nature of things.

So why is it totally acceptable to tell any man he should “man up” when they let their feelings be known? Generally speaking, why should anyone withhold from having any emotions?

As we grow up into our own personas, we tend to be shown that only girls are able to cry and be sensitive, while guys should never show their feelings. Hence, crying is not an option and being afraid is out of the question. If they do happen to show even an ounce of any of said acts, then they are automatically labelled as being p*ssies and too feminine. Well, lemme tell you how much bullsh*t that is.

As a society, we have done a great job in shining light on very important problems in the world like body image, mental illnesses, sexist mindsets, etc. Just as how women are able to become the victim of all those problems, men can too. But, they are so often afraid to share their stories in fear of being labelled weak. They should be able to openly share it without fearing the status of their masculinity. Why? Well because men are just as human as women are.

Taking that into consideration, why can’t both genders equally display their emotions without one of them being criticized? Valuing a man who cannot fathom the notion of any type of sensibility is not cute. In other words, it’s not cute to tell any man to “man up.”

Making a man completely trash his emotions just makes for a frustrated male. A frustrated male who has been told to bottle up his feelings and adopt the typical macho man persona. What good does that do to our world? Other than not being able to develop any sort of empathy or sensitivity to be able to relate to others, nothing. Just a typical socially accepted emotionally disconnected guy. Cue the F*ck Boy.
