Nani?

No lol and interestingly the feminist movement was historically very racist at times

There's more low intelligence men then women and iirc racism is kind of a sign of low intelligence

They're not. Women tend to be more passive aggressive about it, men more direct.

a violent racist is 'more' racist than a non violent one anyway

Maybe it's their eyes!

Meanwhile, the vision of female "gatherers" may have become better adapted recognizing close-at-hand, static objects such as wild berries.

John Barbur, professor of optics and visual science at City University London, noted that females are often "worse off in terms of absolute chromatic [color] sensitivity than males."

But when it comes to noticing subtle differences among shades of a color, women do tend to come out on top, as they did in Abramov's experiments, said Barbur, who wasn't part of the new study.

"If you're not dealing with the absolute sensitivity for color detection but the way in which colors are judgedsuch as the ability to describe a color, or what that color means, and so on," he said, "I'd say that females are definitely much better than males."

Women are less inclined to oppositional things like that.

I don't know man... This old lady that yelled "Don't let those 'n-words' shop here!" Was pretty damn racist to me. That was back in 2016 in a small mom and pop shop, so pretty recent.

Women being kinder and more emphatic is video game bs.

Strong disagree, here. Racism isn't measured by how dangerous you are as a person. Some buff Chad that thinks all blacks are beneath him isn't defaulted to less racist than a 95 year old granny that wishes Fuhrer 2.0 will rise up and eradicate all Jews.

Women being racist is a less thankful position. Cause racist almost always also believe that women should live a certain way. Being a racist woman is way more stupid than being a racist guy. All the blowback and a fraction of the perks(?).

Don't know about racism disparity but I know women definitely are killers less than men.

you're technically right, but you're working with a cartoon example so i'm just gonna ignore it

also a violent hate crime will put you away longer... so technically you're not right and society does agree violence is worse than verbal hate.

it's not clear to me that "intelligence", however you define it, has anything to do with racism

No it's not. Everyone has to be judged as an individual, but when you look at sizable samples of the population, the pattern emerges.

Only a person who doesnt experience racism can say this

the fear of not getting a job interview because of my last name or address on my resume is much worse than the fear of someone randomly trying to beat me up on the street because I have brown skin...

The women's suffrage movement was completely integrated but women of privilege sold out the women of color and sold out not just their own selves and the women's movement but posterity. Poison the well and everyone drinks.

Being socially inferior means you have to be better at disguising your feelings.

really good point being made below

So men have hunter eyes and women have cooking eyes?

Do racist men tend to buy more into ultraconservative, hierarchical views of society in which women as well as other races occupy lower positions on the totem pole -- and therefore, women are less like to buy into such a worldview? In other words, do racist men also tend to be misogynists and homophobes?

lmao

Hunter eyes and gatherer eyes

This sexual dimorphism as an adaptation to racism gets thrown out the window if we apply the one drop rule. If anything, this means women are better at telling if someone is their ethnicity or not.

IMO women hate women at least as much as men hate women. IT is not about self-interst.

---

Neo-Nazi organizations tend to be pretty much a boys' club. I don't know if that makes women less likely to be racist; but they seem to be less inclined to join extreme racist organizations, maybe because of the macho culture.

---

Women are socially conditioned to be more passive and conflict adverse(relative to men), but you wouldn't expect them to be any more or less prejudiced than men.

Such organizations tend to be very hostile to women as well. Women; however, are conscious of white supremacy(given their lower status vis-a-vis men, you could even argue they're more conscious of social hierarchy) and perfectly willing/able to take advantage of it when it suits them(assuming they're white, of course).

I don't think women are any less racist. I've met plenty of racist women.

Lmao see a woman get married to a racist man and she'll catch up real quick
