The recent TikTok trend of showing off perfectly organized and styled home pantries is rooted in a history of classist, racist and sexist social structures, according to one Chicago professor.
Through her research at Loyola University, Associate Professor of Marketing Jenna Drenten noticed a recent uptick in what she calls "pantry porn," a plethora of social media videos where women show off their fully stocked kitchen and methodically organized home supplies.
While minimalist designs used to represent an anti-consumption mindset of using less and buying less, the "new minimalism," according to Drenten, means "more is more," so long as it is not dirty or cluttered.
Historically, Drenten says that tidiness is intertwined with status and a person’s messiness often breeds assumptions about a person’s capacity to be responsible and respectable.
"Cleanliness has historically been used as a cultural gatekeeping mechanism to reinforce status distinctions based on a vague understanding of ‘niceness’: nice people, with nice yards, in nice houses, make for nice neighborhoods," Drenten writes. "What lies beneath the surface of this anti-messiness, pro-niceness stance is a history of classist, racist and sexist social structures."

I’m OCD about cleanliness and organization and I also hate libs which is probably racist.

It costs nothing to be clean.

They usually look like that. Some 30s-50s woke white lady calling us all racists.
She probably has a 200k degree from some expensive university and this is what she's doing with it too

So the professor is admitting that certain minorities are usually trashy and disorganized?

I for, the life of me, can never figure out why anyone would care enough about this shite to do this “research”

Going outside and breathing air is racist nowadays.

I was born in Germany so my organizational skills are legendary. I don’t consider myself a racist but if I am I guess it’s not my fault.
Posted on 3/16/23 at 9:14 pm to Darth_Vader
Well, it appears that I am both racist and sexist. My wife (no pics) obviously is not.??

Loyola University, Associate Professor of Marketing Jenna Drenten Is racist. She believes minorities are dirty and unorganized. Cancel her!

Mine is partially organized so I’m only half racist and sexist. And I don’t wear multi bright colored clothing so that must make me anti LGBT. Also, I don’t have a ramp to my porch so I must hate handicapped people.

She probably lives like a slob with a couple of cats who contribute to the filth and stench of her apartment.
