| 0 | Need some guidance on a workplace issue plz.Nope, you brought up the racial component to suggest that its worse to call a black a boy, therefore I corrected you on the assumption you made that historically only they were oppressed. I literally never said any of this. What in the fuck are you talking about? There are negative connotations being called boy, else the OP would not have been rustled. Again, the mush. He's a 40 year old being called boy. Not a teenage boy. Been over this like a dozen times. You idiot. Lol. This is just sad. Yes… | /r/MensRights | 30/04/17 04:20 AM |
| 0 | Need some guidance on a workplace issue plz.You're quite clearly insane because there was no such thing as child's rights prior to the industrial age. Parents could beat the shit out of their children all they wanted, force them to work long, hard hours, all the same as slavery. And exactly none of that is relevant to why it's wrong to call a teenage boy "boy". Because it isn't. You seem to really struggle to be able to isolate and understand the specific struggles of various demographics, and it sounds like all of it just slams together … | /r/MensRights | 30/04/17 04:10 AM |
| – | Need some guidance on a workplace issue plz.No, there aren't. Pointing out someone's race, especially blacks in the US, carries with it the massive weight of literal slavery. There is no such parallel for calling a teenage boy "boy". Worst of all, your trying to argue that these two are somehow comparable is actually diminishing the severity of what slavery actually was. | /r/MensRights | 30/04/17 04:00 AM |
| – | Need some guidance on a workplace issue plz.No, but not because it's an "aspect that they can't change". It's because you're singling out a single property for no apparent reason, and that property has a history surrounding it that is negative, raising suspicions in people that the reason you're singling out that property is due to malice. There are absolutely no such connotations associated with calling a young teenage male "boy". Literally none. Again. For like the 5th time. I'm not just saying this because I'm trying to end my sentence… | /r/MensRights | 30/04/17 03:47 AM |
| – | Need some guidance on a workplace issue plz.And referring to an aspect of a person that they can't change is not offensive. Again, you're an idiot. | /r/MensRights | 30/04/17 03:37 AM |
| 0 | Need some guidance on a workplace issue plz.Because it's only "denigrating" in certain contexts. Like when you're calling someone who's not a boy, a boy. It's hard to believe something so trivial is really going so far over your head. | /r/MensRights | 30/04/17 02:14 AM |
| – | Need some guidance on a workplace issue plz.being age-language shamed, but suggest it is acceptable to do to others if they're much younger. It isn't shaming if the person is actually a "boy". As in a teenager being addressed by someone who is an adult. It's only shaming specifically because he's a 40 year old. This has nothing to do with race. This has to do with using a term which is appropriate in certain contexts, being inappropriate in other contexts. Like many terms are. Kind of how if i call a normal healthy person "mentally retard… | /r/MensRights | 30/04/17 02:13 AM |
