- voakbasda 3y agoBigotry is still alive and well. It just changes shape over time. Puritanical condemnation of sexuality is a long standing tradition in the US. If they had their way, God would forbid anyone from sex if out of wedlock or without the purpose to procreate. Bunch of prudes, if you ask me.
- nickysielicki 3y agoWhat a stupid comment. Being gay is not a choice, creating an OnlyFans certainly is.
- broscillator 3y agoIs being a judgmental prude a choice?
- nickysielicki 3y agoIt doesn't matter what you, I, or my friend thinks about this, you can't deny the reality that some people think this is weird, and you can't ignore the possibility that someone like that might be interviewing you. Especially if you're someone working a sales job for small companies in the Midwest. It's a reflection of your privilege that this either isn't obvious to you or that you think my friend should simply refuse to work for such people.
- broscillator 3y agoHuh? Isn't the privilege to be a bigot in a position to interview people? 60 years ago you can't deny the reality that some bigot had power and interviewed people and he didn't like "fruity" men (or whatever he'd have said back then). Or the reality that he wouldn't have hired a woman. Or a black person. And somehow it's privilege to point this out? Excuse me?
- nickysielicki 3y agoObviously the person in a position to bring their personal beliefs into a hiring decision is in a position of privilege. My point is that there are a lot of people out there that aren’t in a position to be able to afford walking out of that interview.
