Sounds ok to me (male).
"The male wakes up at 7am, so he can prepare for his office work; he's tired and being worn down, yet somehow remains resolute. In this way, he channels the spirit of the emperor penguin and endures."
Remember folks, the gender wars distract from the class wars we should all be engaged in!
For female it makes it sound like a Ferengi lol:
"HOOMON FEEEMALE?"
Please point out "female" in my post - I'll wait
Yeah I initially thought it was a response to my post so my original reply made no sense lol, my bad
No worries, life is busy. Thanks for clearing that up.
The OP made a good point.
Excuse me but the class war IS a war against the patriarchy
I can multitask.
Really, at full efficiency? If so, my hat is off to you!
Yes, I can care about and work at many different things in the course of my week, month and year. I think a lot of people can.
I'd say a lot of people think they can, and this I have witnessed all to well (and too often), yet rarely (never in certainly) have I seen those who can.
Sure, my 73 year old mother can't walk at a brisk pace and have a deep conversation at the same time. But it doesn't mean that she can't spend a week educating herself about race inequality and then read up on class conflict the next week after that.
Why should we ignore one issue in favor of another? Of course, if someone doesn't have the mental energy for more than one thing, they should focus on the one thing that matters most to them.
But I do think that it's a bit blithe to tell everyone that they shouldn't spend time on challenging sexism, because we should all instead just focus on class warfare.
Okay but that's literally not what multitasking means. She would have to be reading one course in a book and an entirely different subject on her phone at the same time, with zero loss of retention or speed. There are ways the military trains people to do actual multitasking specifically, but for the vast majority of us we only have single-threaded thought processes that switch between lanes ALMOST but not quite instantly, so you're just introducing stops and starts. It's like how talking to someone while you're driving WILL distract you, and the line on what kind of distracted driving is banned or not is based more on what kinds of things are enforceable (physical presence of a phone at x minute and location or some such).
