Re: Question Bout Privilege

NA

But it's not anecdotal, because it's the same old shit. It's bullshit to look at behaviour that devalues and stigmatizes "women's" work as below men, behaviour that's been studied and documented and fought against for hundreds of years, and claim it's just some weirdo and not actually about gender at all because we're all enlightened now. People don't change that quickly.

While we're being anecdotal, I work in an industry with traditionally male and female roles and I've seen women pull the same shit about "masculine" jobs they don't want to do. But people never say it outright, they just make it clear through their behaviour that the reason they should be given another task is they're just not "suited" to this one, look at what a terrrible job they're doing.

It is anecdotal. Anon basically wrote "I know someone who knew someone who did this once" - and this specific example is the very definition of anecdotal evidence, no matter how much you want to pretend that it's somehow not.
And LOL "hundreds of years". You may want to research that again. It's a very popular myth that womens' work was seen as somehow lesser when it absolutely wasn't in a lot of cases.
