Apparently Sam Smith Is Not a Man

Pop culture news outlet PopCrave recently tweeted that “no men” were nominated for best music video at the VMAs, despite Sam Smith being in the very picture of nominees that they posted along with it. Plus a Norwegian student identifies as a woman to take advantage of his university’s diversity quotas, the Library of Congress apologizes for using someone’s wrong pronouns, and are Gen Z young women confused about whether they want to be pursued by men? Let’s get into it.

I love how they do everything but get therapy

[Sama-ydcl]

I don’t even think Sam Smith’s performance can be described as art anymore. It’s simply bdsm kinks being camouflaged as creativity.

[laurapearson]

If he wants to be a them/they he can’t just change the word fisherman for him and expect others to follow the madness. If genitals don’t define sex? Then how does altering them affirm it?

[trentbara]

Spain… Italy… Greece… the Balkans… France… Ukraine… Portugal…. saying “white”/European ppl don’t have culture is insane to me. Tell me you haven’t travelled without telling me you haven’t travelled

[mcedwards]

Even as an actual woman, I would still just say that I'm a fisherman if that was my profession. It would sound stupid coming out of my mouth to say the word fisherwoman, let alone fisherthem

[thejedicounciloffical]

I honestly will never understand people who use weird pronouns like “they/them”

[cortneymorrison]

I have never seen a more fickle generation who acts before they think

[bluehunter]

They could’ve just said, ” 9 out of 10 nominees were women.”

[gabbydavis]

Sam has a song called "Man I Am" and yet he's "not" a man.

[cortneymorrison]

It used to be called “wooing” and “romancing”, but now it’s being referred to as “manipulating”? Holy hell, what is happening? We live in the twilight zone 😂

[havanafayre]

I love how they do everything but acknowledge reality

[MettleHurlant]

Sam Smith’s beard is asking that he change the pronouns back to he/him. The beard doesn’t identify as nonbinary and is offended at being constantly misgendered.

[mlynagh]

The pronoun issue from those who have decided to join another category of humans, whilst stating they don’t want to be categorised, and politely demanding we use those terms is called passive aggressive. It’s been used for a millennia, will always be used and we can choose to ignore it. I identify as a human! 😊

He is absolutely lying to sell records.

[grrrrr]

I'm italian, and Italy has a solid culture that is admired all over the world. When you see Italians getting upset over food and stuff about our traditions, it's because we are scared that people will change them. We are still partially in the past, it's not a technology developed country, and over the 60% of the population is old.
Also, the romanian empire had a large impact on the culture, by unifying some many different populations under Rome. And we are "white" people. (I seriously hate describing myself like this, I only heard of it in America).

I appreciate that Amala remains highly articulate and intelligent, despite all that continues to blow her mind!

[queenofswordspodcast]

90% of the women that I work with say this, and when I ask what more effort looks like to THEM, they all have different answers. Then I ask them if they have told their partner what they need, and almost all of them say "well, he should just KNOW". At the end of the day if you are not communicating your expectations than you can not be upset because someone isn't reading your mind.

13:42 At least they didn’t let Lizzio do other inappropriate things with the flute, 😖.

[brianmiller]

This psychosis has gone on ling enough

Amala, I just wanna tell you that I appreciate the way you present issues. As a conservative, I agree with almost all your takes, but the reason I enjoy watching your content is because you're not as abrasive or aggressive as someone like Matt Walsh. Even though y'all stand for the same principles, I love your level-headedness and reasonable presentation without resorting to just ad hominem attacks
