- yieldcrv 3y agois it possible that today’s spacewalk was paying homage to the one in 2008?
- 9dev 3y agoOh wow, you’re right. That’s some first class misogynistic bullshit in pretty much every single comment.
- pugworthy 3y agoIt’s here too in a few subtle “wink wink” ways.
- fritzo 3y agoHonest question: are the authors tactically baiting the masses and thereby diverting attention from more difficult to answer questions like budget (at the expense of gender equality), or are they really this crude, nothing deeper? EDIT I mean are they trying to elicit responses like "more men in space" to prevent responses like "less space more healthcare"?
- dotnet00 3y agoI don't think it's either. The PR machine was screaming loudly about the astronauts' gender coming up to the spacewalk. So, it just carried over. It'd be weird to start trying to cover that up just because people might make jokes some find distasteful.
