And on page 116 of Lamont’s book I realized that she is an irredeemable idiot. See the following quote:
A more aggressive masculine style may have been more acceptable a generation ago.
So Michele Lamont, if you ever chance upon this post, I want you to know that:
You are a brainless idiots who has zero intelligence and who perpetuates idiotic gender stereotypes because you have nothing of value to offer to the world. All you can produce is stupid gossip and ridiculous opinions of an uneducated semi-literate fool.
Is my style aggressive and masculine enough for you, you stupid piece of chauvinistic garbage? If not, there is a lot more “masculine” aggression within me, so just ask.
Sincerely yours,
Clarissa who is sick to death of brainless broads who keep telling her that her way of being makes her a man.
And please, whatever you do, spare me the argument that “but it isn’t Lamont’s fault if aggression is perceived as a masculine trait.” In the quoted statement, the person doing the perceiving is Lamont. And she never signals any disagreement with this perception. Is it OK to say, “A greedy Jewish style may have been. . .”? Or “this Ukrainian-style laziness is outdated”? Or “the lecherously Mexican style is out of fashion”? No? Why not? Because it promotes a nasty stereotype while presenting it as something the author doesn’t dispute? Well, that’s my objection to Lamont’s text.
