Just a PSA for some of the commentators here. Latino isn’t a race. You can be any color and be Latino. There are millions of white Latinos out there. 

Except Korean is a racial cetegory LatinX is a cultural category. There are black, brown and white LatinX people!

Learned and taught, I remember when my dad married my stepmom and I would do chores to try to help out and every chore I did would get redone for not being done “right” of course a child is going to only do so well but better to do 85% right then teach a child not do chores which is what happened. I also got praised…

It really depends on your social circle. Among most of my friends are late twenties and early thirties college edcuated and live in city there’s not really room for this kind of thing. On my dads side of the family which is mostly working class latinos there are often pretty strong gender roles though often in a…

This is an interesting point. One thing I always want people to ask in these types of conversations is, “does your partner actually expect you to do this work?” Because from my experience growing up in WASPy suburbia there are a lot of women working very hard to meet standards that their husbands neither understand nor…

I think this is really important! Me and my partner both thank each other for doing chores. It’s an acknowledgement that you did something to help both of us. 

This is something I think often gets left out of the conversations. I grew up with divorced parents the different perspectives on chores and expectations really showed me how different these things can be. At my moms house I was expected to do chores the same as any other family member I had jobs to do and did them…

For all the people commenting that there is just something “off” about people who don’t own pets. I would like to point our that there are many cultures globally where pet ownership is not a normal thing, and your projecting Anglo values onto people who may not share those same values.

There are entire cultures where owning pets is not normal. Guess they are all sociopaths!

I find this pretty Anglo centric. There are plenty of cultures where not owning pets is very very, normal. And have a totally different frame about interacting with animals.

Gonna press X for doubt on this one fam. I really don’ think these numbers are trustworthy. Even aside from the fact that the author can’t report their own numbers correctly. 5% of people say the earth is ruled by lizards and there is always a margin of error on these surveys for trolls, if only three percent deny it…

I’m pretty sure this is a reference to people making “special” genders on tumblr, There is a subculture there which makes what are basically gender pokemon cards with “new” genders accredited to there authors. people can use for their identities with a description of personality traits and a flag , stuff like…

Me too! I’m a Pete Supporter, I always thought of Warren as my second and Bernie as my third. Now that Warren has dropped and I’ll be faced with the choice of Biden or Bernie, I just can’t pull the trigger for Bernie and will be going with Biden. Which is something I never thought I’d say at the beginning of all this.

You are exactly right. All the bros screamed I like him! When Hillary said no one in the senate likes him, but it’s pretty telling when Warren, who should be his ideological ally, is hesitating to endorse him because of the way him and his supporters have behaved towards her.

Not that it matters now , but he never really changed his position on much of anything. His platform when he started was pretty much the same as when he ended.

Some people are too scared to do anything more than sit in their assigned seat. I was on a train once where me and two friends had standing tickets as people got off me and one of my friends moved to sit in empty seats, but the other refused because they weren’t his seat and stood for the whole three hours.

Pete Buttigieg’s healthcare plan will automatically enroll everyone without insurance on a government plan. He’s literally advocating everyone getting healthcare. Anyone who doesn’t have it gets government healthcare, with expanded subsidies for low income people, anyone with insurance who wants to switch to…

I think white people have a culture just as long as you limit it to American whites. Which I think is fair when people on American sites refer to Black Culture they are referring to African American Culture. If you want a solid example of White Culture listen to any episode of A Prairie Home Companion. 

So pretty sure what they were saying is that all of those things are not unique to one race and calling white people and culture uniquely evil is pretty hyperbolic. I mean “White people commit genocide throughout the world.” Yup I’m just going committing genocide on account of my race no hope for me I’m just an evil…
