Looks like I won't be smiling any more. I don't want to trigger anyone.

Jesus-titty-fucking-Christ! They are going after our smiles now? They can't stand the idea of a happy man.

No good deed goes unpunished.

Careful boys : If you smile you may look forward to a stint in the joint.

This whole speaking for the "victim" bullshit needs to stop.

"it might be sexist without you knowing it"

Hows that even possible, its obviously up to you if you find it sexist or not, not some grumpy old man/woman with a grudge.

This is a way of feeding the paranoia.

In the paranoiac's head: "That guy was smiling and laughing yesterday. In fact he seems to smile and laugh a lot. Could he be secretly sexist?"

"Hey women! Just to inform you, black people who assault women tend to joke with her beforehand! So next time a black person jokes with you, what do you think he might do? Maybe nothing, tee hee!"

The team at Northeastern University in the United States observed the interaction of 27 pairs of students. With the help of the observers were able to identify two types of discrimination against women. The men who devoted themselves to so-called "hostile sexism" was perceived as less friendly and smiled less during conversations with his female interlocutors. The men who indulged so-called "well-intentioned sexism" was perceived as warmer and were more likely to smile during the talks, writes the site ScienceDaily.

According to the researchers, this shows that a certain type of sexism can hide behind a disarming body language and a polite vocabulary. It allows men to continue spreading disparaging thoughts about the woman without others noticing.

In order to put an end to gender inequality, we must become better at identifying this "wolf in sheep's clothing".

This raises the question of just how to behave when interacting with women, in order to avoid gender inequality.

HER: Hello! Nice day!

HIM: Piss off.

Geez, this modern etiquette is difficult.

This makes me wish that the Islamists had more power over there. Anders Brevik was wrong, Islam is the savior of Europe.
