You're wealthy, tall, young, male, English-speaking programmer who posts about how they are "constantly called the smartest person people know", whining that other people being represented by emojis is inconvenient to you so it shouldn't be allowed.
That should cause some embarassment and self-reflection.
- Exuma 6y agoLol @ your attempt to shame me. It doesn't work because I regret nothing, and apologize for nothing. It's not illegal to seek feedback about self from others. It's not illegal to be tall, young, male, english speaking. And most of all, it's not illegal to think a woman with a beard emoji is ridiculous.
- halostatue 6y agoCertainly not illegal to think that, but nothing stops people from thinking that your privilege, ignorance, and biases are showing.
- howinteresting 6y agoIt's not illegal to think it's ridiculous, but it's also not illegal to think you're ridiculous.

Did you put any thought about anyone other than yourself before deciding this? What thought did you put in before deciding it's ridiculous? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwTt8ov6LGs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwTt8ov6LGs - 3 women with facial hair talk to Marie Claire. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVcHhcIdCSs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AVcHhcIdCSs - Bearded Sikh woman "bullied to the point of suicide" talks to This Morning. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79fIZSKBjXg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=79fIZSKBjXg - Life of a Bearded Girl, interview / discussion with Dr Parameshwar. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFpE6moREGY https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JFpE6moREGY - Bearded Lady interviewed with This Morning.
