    1. We’ve established that the task of maintaining on a household typically falls on women in our society.
    2. We have an example here of a sticker chart being used to encourage a man to take care of his child.
    3. You’re saying I’m biased for thinking that the man needs this chart.

    Nah, bruh, I’m just looking at the data and drawing conclusions.

    Sure, there are exceptions, but when we lack any other indicators of exceptions, it’s safe to assume societal roles carry over. Making any other assumption is ironically letting YOUR personal biases show.

    If I tell you 7/10 balls in a box are red, 3/10 are blue, and ask you to guess the color of a ball I’m grabbing from the box, what’re you going to guess? Red.

    I’m pretty sure this sticker chart is fake anyways, but it’s the reaction of folks to this that’s surprising.

      No you’re dishonestly ignoring all the content of the image and pushing some random stats in a vacuum.

      I could care less about those stats, I have eyes.

      Obviously this is fake, but it’s fun to argue.

        What am I ignoring?

        I could care less about those stats, I have eyes.

        Okay if we’re just going to pick and choose what context we ignore when interpreting what we see then there’s no real point in having a conversation.
