This is LADIES LINGERIE.
They actually SELL lingerie, right out in the open, in DEPARTMENT STORES!
Like, you can go into Macy's or Bloomingdales, get into an elevator, and it'll take you to...
"LADIES LINGERIE."
There should be a law.
And YOU are looking at a photo of a LADIES LINGERIE department! If you're reading this on a laptop, in public, BE CAREFUL!
Somebody might look over your shoulder and be OFFENDED.
Might accuse you of being a PERV!
You COULD be arrested. The cops will come and handcuff you first and ask questions later. Your picture could be snapped and put on social media, and then…you might be FIRED from your JOB.
Remember, "Freedom of Speech" in this country has LIMITATIONS.
Today's news: SANCTIONS will be made against a male professor if he doesn't apologize for…
...brace yourself….
...are you prepared?
He SAID something...
...are you ready? HERE IT COMES....HE SAID...
"Ladies lingerie" in a crowded elevator.
OH MY GOD.
If he FARTED in a crowded elevator, he would've been ok. That wouldn’t have been an offense for SANCTIONS. Not even if he did it deliberately and chuckled about it.
But saying “Ladies lingerie” is…MISOGYNY!
That’s what the complaining woman said.
A study in twits, huh? On the left, a smug, obnoxious short-haired short-tempered twat. On the right, a prune-faced prof who THINKS he's funny. Funny, he's not. But he's not sexist or a woman-hater. He sure as hell wasn't trying to pick up that ugly broad with a clever opening line.
The story:
"Richard Ned Lebow, professor of international political theory at King’s College in London, was in a jammed elevator when someone asked him what floor he needed to get off on.. “Ladies’ lingerie,” he joked." You know, he was pretending like it's a department store? "He was attending the International Studies Association conference in San Francisco at the time. Simona Sharoni, professor or women’s and gender studies at Merrimack College in Massachusetts, also present in the elevator, took offense and several hours after the incident, she filed a complaint with the association, which found that Lebow violated the group’s code of conduct.
"After Lebow was made aware of the complaint, he sent Sharoni an email telling her “I certainly had no desire to insult women or to make you feel uncomfortable.” He also suggested she may have “interpreted my remark out of context.”
“Like you, I am strongly opposed to the exploitation, coercion or humiliation of women,” Lebow wrote, “As such evils continue, it seems to me to make sense to direct our attention to real offenses, not those that are imagined or marginal. By making a complaint to ISA that I consider frivolous — and I expect, will be judged this way by the ethics committee — you may be directing time and effort away from the real offenses that trouble us both.”
Oops, Professor. You went a LITTLE TOO FAR. AGAIN.
You apologized...but then you ruined it by telling the woman that you thought her charge against you was "frivolous." When you GROVEL do not GRUMBLE.
You expected this twat with NO SENSE OF HUMOR to react well to the word...FRIVOLOUS? Why, you DICKHEAD!
While every day people make corny jokes and silly jokes, don’t just roll your eyes or ignore them. Get OFFENDED. File a complaint.
Strike a blow for all those with absolutely NO sense of humor and a very petty sense of priggish self-entitled bullying.
The news article confirms:
"The ISA committee found fault with Lebow characterizing Sharoni’s complaint as “frivolous.” It instructed him to issue an “unequivocal apology,” which he refused to do.
"Lebow told colleagues this is “a horrifying and chilling example of political correctness” that “encourages others to censor their remarks for fear of retribution.”
Political correctness. Yes. We'd rather than that, than have a laugh.
My Sharoni punked up a haughty comeback:
"For decades, women and other marginalized groups in the academy had to put up with white men who decided what counts as a violation and what is ‘frivolous.’ As someone who has dedicated her life to confronting sexism (and other forms of discrimination and oppression) in academic spaces, I cannot and will not remain silent when misogyny is at play."
Yes, MISOGYNY. The woman says calling out "Ladies' Lingerie" in an elevator is MISOGYNY. Really? Tell that to guys who actually DO call out "Ladies' Lingerie" in the elevator at Macy's or Bloomingdales, intent on buying expensive underthings for their lady friend! What BASTARDS!!!!!
Sharoni probably wears boxer shorts.
"Lebow faces appropriate sanctions from ISA if he doesn’t write an apology by May 15. ISA did not immediately respond to request for comment."
Of course they didn't. the ISA doesn't want to COMMENT because they have the FREEDOM to SPEAK and they are ashamed, baffled and confused by that. They MIGHT say something that COULD OFFEND SOMEBODY.
I know this is an awfully long report here...but...I wouldn't want to offend this twat Sharoni by writing something...BRIEF! Get it? BRIEF! Oh that was so offensive…BRIEF…ask Blogspot to inflict sanctions….
