Since when did gay actors have a hard time getting roles?

You thought Diggy was one dimensional? She had as much character as the other side characters, IMHO.

The idea that women’s work is less valued is an interpretation of the data, . I say there isn’t enough data to make that assertion because there are almost no instances of men taking over a formerly female dominated field. That itself is telling, suggesting that men avoid fields associated with women. There is a lot…

“Pushed out” how? How would women be pushed out?

Yeah, but hasn’t the demand for nurses gone up as the healthcare industry expands? I think that has to be accounted and the article didn’t seem to control for market supply and demand.

It could be that as demand grew and wages increased, more men got into it.

I would hazard that it started be taken serious as there was greater demand for the skill. Computers weren’t a big industry in the 1950's.

How many fields have really gone from predom female to predom male? I would hazard in truth probably none.

This article is specifically about the legal weed industry. Point Blank. There are other articles about “bullshit drug arrests and convictions” and this article is about who those “bullshit drug arrests and convictions” affect prevent many from taking advantage of the new opportunities in the legal weed industry.

To be fair, the National Review has tried to move away from racism/xenophobia. Remember when they tossed Derbyshire for that racist screed he wrote?

It’s like herpes. Always in the system but symptoms manifest during certain conditions.

A part of me thinks that given how their party is fracturing, with Drumpf keeping their hands full for the time being, the GOP might just cave. Being obstinate at this point just makes them look worse in the public eye.

First, you could have saved the effort because I’m not suggesting they had to go for an all POC/women/trans/whatever cast. My point is, there is no good reason why they should have discriminated in the audition process( if they did in fact do so) My point is: There is no reason they couldn’t have done color blind…

Please, I never once made it about me or what I want. I’m just pointing out that your excuses for them are lame, and typical.

A guy can’t be feel physically threatened by a woman, or a group of women?

His circumstances are VERY cushy compared to most Americans and most everyone else in the world. You don’t have to be filthy rich in order to “suffer” from entitlement and Affluenza. He is a young, straight white male from a middle class family who attends super elite schools with classmates with wealthy parents who…

You could do infinitely more if the cast was more diverse. Imagine the issues that would arise between the characters. It really has nothing to with accuracy because if there is one thing I know as a 30 something year old who’s been watching TV and film all his life, the industry accuracy is always sacrificed for…

“Vikings are really, really white.”

Of course you know what I mean. When they cast for a role are they actively excluding POC and women by only giving white male actors a chance? Despite SV tech companies being really white and male there is nothing about most of the characters that make them definable as white men. I’m not saying the have to cast a POC…

Why? Historically race and nationality have been mapped on each other. Go back 80 years and folks were talking about the English race, the German race, the French race, the Japanese race, etc. Race is a category of relation and is a pretty empty concept(It comes from the Latin word for “class”) so it can refer to many…
