DEPRESSED TROLL NIGHTMARE BITCH

like i don’t really have a problem who use terms like “dude” without gender but if a person asks you to stop using a word to refer to them because it makes them uncomfortable you should like. i dunno maybe fucking stop using that word to refer to them? unless you are just a rude asshole???

Commentary.

In February, I posted two pieces in Bed-Stuy on Tompkins and Halsey. These two pieces got the most attention of any pieces I’ve put up so far. Within a few days, someone had written his response to the work directly onto the posters. From there, a woman wrote a response to him. And it went on and, on with different hand-written comments creating this kind of interesting discussion. The pieces remained up until a week or so ago, when the phallic image was drawn. That’s when I decided to try to take them down.

The “Stop Telling Women to Smile” piece remained in tact enough for me to include it in the exhibition. I thought it was important to present in the show, so that people could view these written reactions.

"Mental rotation is a skill that men typically perform better than women (for a review, see Valian, 1999). However, when researchers described a mental rotation task as predictive of success in interior design, women actually performed better than men. Men outscored women only when the task ostensibly predicted success in aviation engineering….Because men typically outscore women on mental rotation, the reversed effect in the feminine condition testifies to the power of gender conformity to release the motivational brakes (for women) and to apply them (for men). It also signals the extent to which people inhibit themselves to avoid crossing gender bounds."

That awkward moment when one of The Main Reasons Men and Women Are Just Differently Skilled at Stuff, You Guys actually turns out to be more complicated than you thought.

Friendly reminder that this is probably caused by the fact that we don’t teach girls math well enough to begin with and generally discourage girls and women from studying math and science through various forms of harassment.
