You think female workers at stores are expected to keep kids quiet more than male workers? The people I expect to keep kids quiet are parents/guardians, not the store workers.

A lot of the stuff you mentioned unfortunately can’t be helped, it is a factor of the physical differences between males and females.

i meant if you are the shopper.

Well I think is just as much the father’s responsibility as it is the mother’s.

hey, look, i agree its a factor that can’t be helped, doesn’t make me any less privileged in society though does it?

It also doesn’t make you King Midas.

Also, i am not going to go start talking about male privilege, but once you have children, you start to notice the problems where you didn’t even know they were before.

You really have no idea how much of a pain in the ass looking after kids is?

I didn’t think he was talking the problems of normal child care.

Ok, am I an awful person for thinking breast feeding should be done in private?

Breast feeding involves a woman exposing her breast, correct?

Is not the breast on a woman considered a private part?

What do we call beaches where women are allowed to go topless? Nude beaches, correct?

During breastfeeding the nipple is still covered. I’m not a parent yet, but I was raised in a family with a lot of kids, and breastfeeding is completely natural and unsexual. It’s a common necessity of being a mother. If you don’t like it, look away.

perhaps, if the nipple is covered the whole time. And yes, I realize breastfeeding is completely natural and unsexual.

Let me get this straight.

You guys think black people can’t have an opinion on this ESPN thing.

That would be incorrect. Please do not put words in my mouth. Unlike some people, I would never say someone can’t have an opinion due to skin color. Nor would I call an opinion lecturing due to the skin color of the opinion holder. Nor would I hold a holier than thou attitude towards someone because of their skin color/gender.

I am sure if tree falls and no one is around, it still makes a noise. But obviously, if no one was around, no one heard the noise.

Ah ok so it’s ok to lecture black people as long as they aren’t listening.

All I am saying that I ought to be able to give my opinion on these things without being raked through the coals just because of my skin color.

Oh hi there white privilege, nice to see you again.

ah the answer that justifies all bigotry towards white people, including from some that are white themselves.

fixed.

Sounds about right.

I find it funny that Frink’s only response in any race argument is to devalue your opinion because of your skin color rather than address your opinion directly.

I find it funny that you are all so worried about bigotry toward white people. not that such a thing can’t or doesn’t exist, it does. but i don’t think you have shown any legit examples of it.

Didn’t Trump mention something about making sure if his facts before speaking out about Charlottesville? It might have been nice if he had actually done that.

Any Black people reading this?

I am sure if tree falls and no one is around, it still makes a noise. But obviously, if no one was around, no one heard the noise.

funny thing is, is probably no black person read my comments here. Therefore I can not possibly have lectured any black people.

Yikes. Great timing.

Is this really that big of a deal? They weren’t selling black people, they were doing a FANTASY auction of football players. It also included white players. According to the article you linked too, auctions are common in fantasy football.

"Auction drafts are a common part of fantasy football, and ESPN’s segments replicated an auction draft with a diverse slate of top professional football players. Without that context, we understand the optics could be portrayed as offensive, and we apologize,” ESPN said in a statement to USA TODAY Sports.

I’ve done Fantasy for many years now and this story proves that if someone does something as simple as taking something out of context, they’ll get offended real quick.

Just once I wish you guys could admit that maybe just maybe black people could have an issue with something that you guys don’t.

Just once I wish that you guys could admit that "maybe just maybe* just because some black people have an issue with something, doesn’t automatically make it a valid complaint.

Ok, good to know. Please be sure to let black people know each time what they are allowed to have an issue with, so they can stop making the same mistake of being offended.

*sigh*

Fact: People sometimes get offended at things that aren’t reasonable to be offended over.

Once again, thanks for clarifying that for black people. I’m sure they feel much better now.

Do disagree with the fact that I stated? Are you saying it never happens that someone gets offended at something that wasn’t reasonable to get offended at? That never happens???

If a black person says they are offended because Jack White won’t change his name to Jack Black, I wouldn’t consider that reasonable. If a black person says they are offended because an ESPN sketch includes something that is reminiscent of a slave auction, I’m not gonna argue. I get that it’s fantasy football (I play) and I get that white players were there too. It’s clear ESPN did not do it intentionally. But it looks bad and there’s no reason us white people should be lecturing black people for pointing that out.

I was not lecturing anyone. I was giving my opinion. White people are allowed to have opinions and say them.

Your opinion (and darthrush;s and mfm’s) is that black people should not be upset that something with at least tangential racial connotations happened. That’s a lecture, no matter how much you want to dress it up as opinion.

thank you for lecturing me.

Doesn’t feel great, does it?

whatever.

Gosh, those silly blacks are getting all uppity about race issues again!

*rolls eyes*

I know, right? My descendants were sold at auction and I totally don’t care how this looks.

You’re descendants???

Yes, I am.

please explain.

The descendants post was sarcasm and the “Yes, I am.” post was pointing out a grammatical error.

Also, you are right, I meant ancestors.

When were you’re ancestors sold at auction?
