YAAFM

It is a PARODY COMEDY.

LITERALLY the first image when you search this term on da'google

So unless you are channeling your inner Andy Kaufman you need to educate yourself.

Watching Airport 1975 ... reality ...

Just so we're clear:

Watching Airport 1975 ... reality ...

Airport 1975 - imdb plot summary:

When the pilot of a small aircraft has a heart attack and crashes his plane into the cockpit of a Boeing 747, several members of the flight crew are killed and the pilot is blinded. Miraculously, the 747 stays in the air on auto-pilot with flight attendant Nancy Prior at the controls. Ground controllers, including her boyfriend Alan Murdock, try to teach her the basics but they soon realize they will have to get a trained pilot into the cockpit. Their first attempt fails and Murdock realizes he will have to do it. Meanwhile, various passengers have their own problems including a young girl who is destined to a life saving operation.

This is a movie so piss-poor it literally was the basis of 1980's Airplane!.

Son - don't do drugs before using the Internet.

Do you know the difference between a fictional movie and real life?

Out of curiosity, do you also think Wreck It Ralph was a documentary and that video game characters are sentient, breathing physical little entities living on circuit-boards?

And it was just fine.

This reflects the fallacy of conclusions based on applying today’s views to previous culture. Speaking from someone who volunteers with the elderly often, the VAST MAJORITY have no issues with how genders interacted in decades past.

Finding this as potentially offensive TODAY provides no foundation for any legitimate argument.

Men were succes and wealth objects and that hasn't changed much in the intervening 43 years.

Well that is certainly a compelling argument....

Do you mind elaborating?

Hey, was The Towering Inferno a real news report too? Oh! And remember how it followed Paul Newman and Steve McQueen up to the roof to plant dynamite on the big water tank to save the day? That was some great reporting, wasn't it?

Oh, and remember the Poseidon Adventure?? Gene Hackman had to sacrifice himself, also caught on the news camera so the other survivors could get to the engine room in the capsized ship! Wow, golly gee, how exciting that was.

Or how about The Swarm? Killer bees invading Texas? Wow, what a nail-biter. News reports were a lot more exciting back in those days, weren't they?

My point is culture, morality, etc. is fluid. It’s wrong to automatically judge people in the past through the lenses of modern sensibilities. Certain cruelties, sure, they were wrong then as they are now - but social interactions...a pat on the butt might be sexual harassment now, but it might have legitimately been taken as flattery in the past.
