Is the Stibbons storyline and character blatantly sexist towards men

Stanx · May 2019

Yes

While in essence what you're saying is true, and there's a definite hint of sexism here (and would surely be an outcry should gender roles be reversed), I don't think this is necessarily the best use of energy/time/a public forum.

I think when an, IMO insignificant, issue like this is highlighted and debated, they tend to mitigate situations that actually warrant attention.

I cant help but wonder if she was a male and he was female if the answers here might be different.

Probably would be. Still, get over it and enjoy the 90,000 things that make life easier because you’re simply born a guy.

No

I don't think it's sexist. Part of the humour is in the reversal of the gender stereotypes.

I do think if the genders were reversed (male Laurant and female Stibbons) there would be
regular threads about it being demeaning to women. Make of that what you will.

I think you just made Gary Walsh feel bad.

The internet was a mistake.

Grow up.

This is a really unnecessary comment and adds nothing to the thread other then insight into the fact you may be unwilling to step past some level of cognitive dissonance about the subject topic.

I have a feeling if the title "woman-servant" was being used you would associate criticism of it with intellectual maturity.
