At the risk of losing brain cells, I'm extremely curious what her reasoning is here.

Is it just cause it's childish? Is shaming men for liking childish things not enforcing toxic masculinity?

[-] blitzen@lemmy.ca 122 points 10 months ago

If Cindy is commenting on him liking something she considers childish, then Cindy is indeed a bitch.

But if she’s commenting on his apparent expectation that it be free for men in their twenties as if he’s owed something, that I can kinda see her point.

Would be nice if she made her point in a way in which her meaning could be clearly understood.

[-] BarticusR@lemmy.world 20 points 10 months ago

He didn't say that it shouldn't also be free for other subsets of society.

Sorry the government doesn't have the funds to subsidize go-kart rides. That money has already been sent to Argentina.

[-] baguettefish@discuss.tchncs.de 12 points 10 months ago

free and mandatory for all the drivers that drive significantly below the speed limit, and they have to compete and earn a rank to be let out again

[-] Sturgist@lemmy.ca 8 points 10 months ago

Guess I'm gonna start being chronically late for work....just like the poor fucks stuck behind me! Free go karting here I come!

Yea, but it's a safer assumption that plenty of other jumps to conclusions. lol

Reading must be very difficult for you with that level of comprehension.

If he didn't mean only men, there's less than no reason to specify men nor an age range.

Please, learn to read. For your own sake.

The child is lashing out lol, adorable. You wanna say more mean words to make you feel better?

[-] MotoAsh@piefed.social -1 points 10 months ago

lol you're too dumb to hold a conversation. Congrats.

[-] Lightor@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Lol you're entire comment was just 2/3 insults, you call that a conversation? Ooof. Someone needs a nap.

Looking at your recent comments, you have gems like "You must enjoy the taste of dick in the morning." And I'm too dumb to hold a convo? You're idea of a convo is insult someone till they don't want to deal with you anymore. Congrats on being alone.

Maybe because he advocates for something to be free for men instead of everybody?

[-] DancingBear@midwest.social 5 points 10 months ago

Is saying tampons should be free for women toxic femininity?

[-] Glytch@lemmy.world 24 points 10 months ago

As a guy, I biologically need to go-kart once a month.

[-] DancingBear@midwest.social 2 points 10 months ago

I’ve never done it. But it sounds really fun. I did have a motorized scooter that was super awesome.

[-] Crashumbc@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

It is awesome, the best is "slick tracks". You get to power slide the ass around.

[-] stray@pawb.social 2 points 10 months ago

No, but it is passively transphobic, in that you're forgetting that men and non-binary people may also use tampons. Tampons and every other necessity should be free for everyone.

[-] wischi@programming.dev 1 points 10 months ago

I don't think think so. I'm not even sure my interpretation was actually why she reacted that way.

[-] treadful@lemmy.zip 17 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

I'm just curious how she expects us to educate ourselves about this.

[-] zarkanian@sh.itjust.works 33 points 10 months ago

The feminist literature on go-karts does seem to be a bit thin.

[-] stray@pawb.social 1 points 10 months ago

Maybe she just really wants to encourage women to go to college.

[-] BarbecueCowboy@lemmy.dbzer0.com 12 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

It's definitely related.

Not exactly childish, but usually you can apply it more broadly as a man enjoying something that isn't seen as outwardly productive.

[-] W3dd1e@lemmy.zip 4 points 10 months ago

Before seeing the reply, my l reaction to his post was “this is some bullshit. I wanna ride go-carts too.”

Cindy needs to calm down though. I’m sure he didn’t mean women wouldn’t be allowed on the track; just that this man really likes go-carts.

[-] WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today 6 points 10 months ago

Maybe it's sexist to imply only men like go karts

[-] Taleya@aussie.zone 1 points 10 months ago

Grown men don't gokart!

Well they fucking well should, it's delightful

[-] ngdev@lemmy.zip 1 points 10 months ago

karting isnt childish unless youre in a child kart. there are karts that haul ass

[-] pleaseletmein@lemmy.zip 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Maybe him having “Caucasian James” as a handle makes her think he’s a racist? (Which is itself silly since it’s more likely a reference to The Office, but it’s all I can come up with.)
