I do think that when something is supper vulgar and it’s due
to what someone ones says they should be accountable. It just depends on what
is said and how others view it. I personally saw nothing wrong with her outing
men who are being rude and jerks. The picture was a little far I think, but I have
seen worse against women.
I do think maybe a private post on Facebook like in a group
that deals with stuff would have been a better choice. I know I’m in groups
that deal with a number of issues and it stays between the group so trolls don’t’
come in and don’t start wars.
I don’t think they should be allowed if not invited due to
the fact that the groups are made people who might think a lot differently. She
posted that because she was sick of women being told from the time their born
that technology is a man’s world. Freedom of speech and I she really didn’t say
anything wrong.
I do think that her not being able to defend herself was a
big part of it. She couldn’t say like “I found this very offensive and it
really burns me how it’s ok to post about women and not men.” I think that if
she could have explained why she did it might have been ok and also she might
not have been fired for posting it. 12 hours is a lot of time to get one side
of the story and leaving the other side to assumptions.
My own opinion of the article:
I think people took it too far when it came to thinking defensively.
Like yes jokes are funny, but there is a
time and place for certain jokes. I don’t like sexist jokes because they are
very mean and when it comes to equality sexist jokes are you’re in the dog
house. I do think that you need to be careful who you say them around. This lady
doesn’t like them like most ladies out there and I think that’s why she posted
it. The issue with posting something like that is you have ignorant people out
there who will attack you. I know that I have been attacked because I post
things about feminism and some men I have in my family don’t like that. They have
told me to stop being a feminist and that I’m a b****. They have said worse. I
know how this women feels due to the fact that she just wanted to make it
better for women and that comes with a cost. You always have those comments
from trolls and they are what get you.
As I read the article I was so happy that finally men who
make inappropriate comments will be exposed and then have to pay for their behavior,
but then I read more. I do not agree in her being fired because both of the men
who made the comments were not fired. Only one was which doesn’t seem right to
me.
The biggest issue I have with this article is this I know I have
seen women get outed all the time for wearing something some man thought was
not appropriate and no one says anything. Those men are not fired or
anything. I don’t see why this women was
fired for reporting inappropriate behavior and why only one was fired out of
the guys.
