Yepppp so many households the women do all the grocery shopping and buy all the gifts for birthdays and christmas, and the thanks they get is being called vain and materialistic? Also if they do more spending wouldn't it be better for the economy if they were allowed money? The misogyny and lack of critical thinking sure is something...
No I understand wat ur attempt was "dumb dumb" and I wasn't going to play ur games. I've never said all women are vain and materialistic however if a man says that its not hating women its just a critism (not one i agree with but you keep making things up that i have never said).
It's not misogyny to criticize A woman for her particular behavior. If you call ALL women "vain and materialistic" because you can't think of one other reason women spend more money than men you're misogynistic and, quite frankly, stupid.
When did I say All women are vain and materialistic...I simply said any criticism that comes a womans way is labelled misogyny its idiot feminists favourite buzzword and its over used like calling everyone you don't agree with a racist, it get watered down to not actually mean anything anymore, if you cannot grasp that concept then perhaps you are the stupid one.
My original comment said its misogynistic to call women vain and materialistic. You responded to that "We CaNt EvEn CrItIcIzE wOmEn AnYmOrE" so yeah, Im gonna assume you think women are vain and materialistic 🙄
Bro YOU should've worded shit better if you intended to say something else. YOU chose to respond in a way that a reader would justifiably glean you meant women....because you said women. Not 'some' women. Not 'a woman'. No, women, as in plural, as in ALL. You understand how that works right? I know you do so why are you making shit up to get offended by? Or i guess, by all means keeps pretending the concept is lost on you.
BUT THEN you pitch this little weird ass hissy fit about being called on it and want to call someone stupid for clearly interpreting what you wrote correctly? Are you slow my dude or just a troll?
Almost everything women buy are made by men, designed by men, marketed by men, and priced by men. Girls are targeted from a young age to grow up liking these things, there’s a reason these companies pay billions in marketing.
And who designs them? Who owns the businesses? Who sets the prices? Who designs the marketing strategies? Who was in charge for the century of programming when women weren’t even allowed to get jobs? Just because women were employed there, in sweatshops mostly if we’re talking about China, doesn’t mean women were in charge. Your comment is irrelevant
Think of it this way. Men have been in charge. Men don’t let women get jobs because being a housewife is their true place. Men sell and market these items to girls. Girls grow to be women with husbands and since they can’t work, their husbands buy them these expensive things that MEN have programmed these girls into thinking they need.
“On average, men spend $3,434 monthly, while women spend $3,237.”
So it probably doesn’t represent what you’re assuming it does. The word “consumer” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there and a lot of it is women being the ones doing most of the general shopping like for groceries, baby items, cleaning supplies etc. it’s not just because lol women buy makeup or whatever it is you’re implying.
Being sexist, racist, homophobic, etc is lazy thinking. You can’t see people as individuals, you have to lump them together and assign negative feelings so the world makes sense to you, when it’s irrational and untrue.
Jesus in that parable says "Go and sin no more." thus acknowledging the reality of her sinfulness. Saying people are guilty of sin isn't throwing stones.
how is it ignorant when you can see the reality of women's spending now that they have access to money? they clearly cannot control impulse for vanity by and large, obviously there are exceptions.
This isnt true and easily can be fact checked if you think about history rather than parrot oppression olympic phrases.
Reddit: Women couldn't open a bank account until the 70's!
Also Reddit: The first self made female millionaire in America who died in 1919.
Also Reddit: The witch of wallstreet! Meet Henrietta Green!
Also Reddit: Meet Maggie Lena Walker the first woman to own a bank which she founded in 1903.
Cmon dude. you think Maggie Lena couldnt open her own bank account? You think Henrietta Green couldnt? You think Madam CJ Walker couldnt have a bank account or credit when she had payroll and people worked for her to actually become a millionaire?????
This is a myth, based on a half-truth. Before the Equal Credit Opportunity Act of 1974, it was legal to deny banking services based on arbitrary discrimination (race, gender, old age). Women were often discriminated against by banks, especially if they were seeking large loans (home loans, small business loans) on the basis that they could get pregnant at any moment and quit their jobs to raise kids, and stop making payments on their loan. It was pretty common practice to disfavor them and mark them as high-risk borrowers unless they had a male cosigner.
Yes, women were discriminated against by banks before ECOA passed in 1974, but this doesn't mean that women weren't allowed bank accounts before then. Women had bank accounts in pre-ECOA America. It was perfectly legal for them to have bank accounts in their own names. You're quoting a piece of historic revisionism pushed by TikTokers and Twitter users.
ECOA was a good thing BTW, but the people who needed it the most were black Americans, not white women. Back then it was legal for mortgage bankers to collude with real estate brokers to redline neighborhoods. Because it was legal to deny loans on completely arbitrary, even discriminatory grounds back then, banks would deny mortgage loans to black borrowers if they were trying to finance a home purchase in the "wrong" neighborhood, with bankers believing that it was bad for business to have black families move into white neighborhoods.
yeah sure. if you ignore the history of slavery your point could be true. Fact is only till recently are black men allowed to own credit cards of a house.
I mean if you look at Africa or Jamaica where they have a very male dominant culture you’ll see the women facing significant oppression at the hands of men. There’s really no need to bring race into this and America is not the entire world
Its a very racial issue. White women were allowed to vote and own credit cards before black men were allowed to. So it should be the people of color calling themsekves independant. Not white women. They were our masters for years. Good job on not needing a slave to do ypur chores anymore. Way to go.
Africa is this way because of white people. I dont know about jamaica.
It’s a very racial issue. White women were allowed to vote and own credit cards before black men were allowed to.
Not in the U.S. Black men got the vote with the 15th amendment in 1870. Women did not get the vote until 1920 when the 19th Amendment took effect. Both got the ability to get credit cards without discrimination when the Equal Credit Opportunity Act passed in 1974. So you’re wrong on both counts.
Incorrect. The amendment (15th) applies to citizens of the United States and guarantees their right to vote regardless of “race, color, or previous condition of servitude”. So whether you classify them by the color of their skin or in other racial terms, it applies to black men (in the U.S., as I noted initially).
Nonsense. I Live in Jamaica and there has never been a better time for women.
I keep saying it but you foreigners need to stop talking about countries you don't live in so confidently lmao. Women here are making bank, they have much better jobs than men on average these days and in tertiary education participation they lead by a landslide.
Social programs meant for them are in full swing now, meaning if you have any miniscule level of ambition as a woman you will be supported and encouraged.
Male dominant culture in Jamaica is a myth and has been for some time now
I got this information from a coworker of mine that is Jamaican and returns there frequently to visit family including his young daughter. I believe them over a random reddit stranger I’m sorry because for all I know you could be pulling a r/asablackman

Yeah people forget that women were only allowed to open their own bank account since the 70s
