At the company I’m working at this summer, I’m the only intern programmer who is female. Whenever I meet someone new who realizes I’m a programmer, they usually end up commenting at how lucky I am, because “software companies always want to hire women!”
Makes me feel like people in the industry will always see me first for my sex, and second for my technical abilities and accomplishments, if at all.
woman is a gender not a sex god damn it
what you said. though, this person is equating “female” (a biological sex) with “woman” (a gender presentation), so her problem isn’t that she’s female or a woman, it’s that people perceive that aspect of herself to be the most important thing. that being said, if she was biologically male and presented as a woman, she would still have this problem, so it’s still what you said.

Halloween, 2011.<3
Racism isn’t really something to be proud of
Uh-oh feminist reblogged you with some hate look out
dont look her in the eyes
Who is this person named “Feminist”? And what does it have to do with Native Americans not taking kindly to assholes wearing caricatures of Indians as costumes?
lol get off your fucking high horse im pure blooded Choctaw Native.
it’s a haloween costume retard.
Cool story bro. I’m so glad you don’t have problems with this, but a lot of people do.
yeah dood
maybe you shouldnt take youre entire life so seriously,
while youre at it quit criticizing people.
worry about yourself and life will be much more enjoyable.
If people would stop making a mockery of my culture I’d be happier ~*~dudebro~*~, but with people having more problems with oppressed people standing up against things that are fucked up than people doing racist shit, looks like I’ll just have to settle for being happy when I’m not being surrounded by racist assholes.
lol alright honey, wanna talk about opression? try living on the rez.
It’s like it’s the same exact conversation every single time… I’ll just wait patiently for the implication that I’ve never faced any sort of discrimination because I’m on the internet and have time to worry about wanting new shoes….
LOLOL how can you be full blood native american and do this bullshit. Oh my god bitch you’re dumb!
Fun story: the one who said that they’re full blooded indian has another post on their tumblr saying they’re part Filipino. TRUE STORY.
AND has “Gypsy” as their Tumblr title…
So much race!fail that I feel embarrassed FOR them….
fun story OP cuz THIS:
is traditional Choctaw regalia, not what you put together there. We were not plains natives homie. Also, we didn’t use headdresses that where ANYTHING like that number you put together there.Perhaps you should go read up on the Five Civilized tribes… just sayin’. We’re from the Southeast (of coarse, also the first ones put on the trail of tears to OK) not the plains… HUGE difference in culture… or as my friend’s dad would say “We were printing news papers while the plains people were still going after the buffalo.” (rather harsh way to put it but true.)
(disclaimer, i’m both choctaw and lakota I ought to know what’s up)
You should know that if you dress up like the stereotypes AND post yourself online in said attire your ass will be torn down. You hurt everyone when you give into bullshit.
