re: Scott Van Pelt goes full SJW

If I see Jemele Hill in an elevator I'm about to get into, I take the stairs.

How do you expect she feel in the moments leading up to the final moment that you pass by her?

You’d be surprised at how many of them slow down to let you pass specifically so they don’t get followed. When these types of anonymous interactions happen multiple times daily, it only makes sense for the vulnerable to develop habits that decrease their chances of being victimized, and it makes equal sense for gentleman to develop habits that make the vulnerable feel comfortable.

You open the door for a lady because it’s what a gentleman does.
You get in the cab before a lady so she doesn’t have to slide across the seat and muss up her dress.
You press your elevator button first so she feels comfortable.

It isn’t SJW; it’s just being a gentleman. You baws are too into the “SJW” dialogue.

Without a comma in there, you're referring to yourself as the "wrong bitch", which is kind of funny

Damn this dork definitely apologizes when he gets off the elevator

Regardless, my sincerest apologies. I've found that the only people who defend the PT posters are their fellow PT posters. And you, apparently.

People that whine about the PT like it the Boogeyman are big time losers

sigh, ill bite. What are you talking about? I didn't say anything about 'being' SJW. I asked questions concerning your views on what someone else is potentially thinking in that moment. And you didn't answer. Do you think your approach in those seconds leading up to the pass scare her just as much if you mind your own business like a normal human being and don't think about it?

I hold a door because of manners and common courtesy. I get in the elevator..I request my floor if someone is closer/my hands are full or press the button myself. I don't think about whether I should be pushing it first or second, Jesus Christ.

What other habits should I develop to make the vulnerable feel more comfortable?


something interesting...I have friends on both sides of the political aisle who have had interactions with creepy men (lets face it, all women have). But I do see a correlation between how the two groups respond to it. The conservatives tend to move on with their lives despite their annoyance and the liberals tend to take on a victim mentality. I don't know if it has anything to do with politics or world view, just something I've noticed.

Not exactly what I mean.

Let’s compare 30-year-old women in Baton Rouge to those in New York.

Ashlynn lives alone in a small house she just bought in Gonzales. She rents out her extra bedroom to a friend from college. She drives to and from her job in Baton Rouge. The only time her life requires her to be completely vulnerable are when she’s walking to and from her car in her driveway and in her workplace’s parking lot.

Harper lives in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, in a 10-floor apartment complex five blocks from the subway. Every morning she leaves her apartment, descends the elevator, walks to the train, rides the train, walks three blocks to her office building, walks three blocks back to the subway, rides the train, walks five blocks to her apartment building, ascends the elevator, and then walks back to her unit.

Ashlynn has two spots where she’s truly vulnerable, and the total time she’s essentially required to spend in those spots is less than five minutes a week.

Harper has three vulnerable spots with a total of about a mile per day of walking between them, meaning she spends hours each week in a type of vulnerability that Ashlynn doesn’t.

This is simply a proposed etiquette for gentlemen, and it’s a good idea. You open the door for a lady because that’s good manners. You walk on the street side of the sidewalk so that the lady doesn’t get horse shite splattered on her petticoat. You walk in the elevator first and push your floor’s button first because you want the lady to be at ease.

A lot of people are putting this in the pile of “pronouns” when this actually has a positive function. I really think this has more to do with population density than anything, and I think the political leanings of the two groups who disagree is more or less coincidental.

Your a wuss mate.
All you do is bitch in every post all over this site.

Like man what is your deal

Chivalry is dying, and the SJW women are killing it. I guess it's time for us courteous, thoughtful gentlemen to just say "frick you, I'm not holding doors, or letting the lady go first, or use the proper manners I was raised to use". It's every man, woman, transgender, bi-gender, or any other description you want to use, for themselves.

I hate what modern society has become.

He's just supporting her, like many others on ESPN have done. She's starting a podcast soon, so she needs to drum up some attention.

sounds like a pussy
