When I Say ‘Straight White Men,’ L.A. Says…

Показать описание

When Ed and his three adult sons come together to celebrate Christmas, they enjoy cheerful trash-talking, pranks, and takeout Chinese before confronting a problem that even being a happy family can’t solve: when identity matters, and privilege is problematic, what is the value of being a straight white man? Obie Award-winning playwright Young Jean Lee defies expectations with a conventionally structured take on the classic American father-son drama — seen through the lens of an observer — in her thought-provoking and witty new play.

SWM here....I'm 40 yrs old. I grew up in a low minded class family. I work my A$$ off every week. I have student loans over my head. Not able to get the job I wanted. Because I'm a SWM do to all the PC games. I'm still looking for all this money I'm told I have and all this power I am told I have. Still haven't found it.

Straight whitemen are awesome! Haters are just fans in denial

Just walk away. Help no woman, no minority. If you want to blame me for all your failures while you get all the scholarships, and your resume put to the top of the list, while boys are marked down 30% for the same answers as girls, then there is absolutely no reason for me to mentor or help you. You never helped me. Plain and simple: just walk away.

Are we seriously going to ignore how racist that white woman was towards white men? Imagine if she said that black men are gross.

I'm half Irish and half Jewish. I grew up in the projects around black people. I tested highest in all my classes growing up. I was a track prodigy in high school. I'm 39 now and homeless. I'm not a drug addict. I'm not a racist. I'm just tired of everyone looking down on me because of my skin color.

So if I hook up with another dude, you will stop hating me?

Doesn’t this contradict everything that is racist or sexist in this world. I’m white and a male but I love and support everyone. I didn’t choose to be white when I was born and there is nothing wrong with my sexual preference. I’m tired of people hating me for things I didn’t do. I’m first generation American and my parents had no place in this countries history at the time. My parents are immigrants of Poland. This is disgusting and you’re part of the problem with racism or sexism if you agree with this video.

Im a straight white man, and I’ve seen so much racism towards me, I’ve been bullied, harassed, I’ve been called a cracker ya know all that crap. People blame me for what my “ancestors” did to “theirs” even though my, great, great, great, grandpa who was general McClellan in the civil war with the union who fought against slavery! But that doesn’t matter to them they just think white man bad. So thanks guys for stopping racism by adding more 😒

I began losing employment opportunities to women and blacks since the early 1990s because I was a white guy. It was very challenging to get a better job to help feed and cloth my family. Later I lost jobs due to age discrimination. This False Judgement has been going on Forever but has increased in the past 30 years and by Everyone. Discrimination is everywhere in U.S. and being a white guy is not a privilege or a crime, just like being any other gender or skin color is a not crime, however has become a privilege in todays society. The US has become a hate culture and people and companies have become very selfish and it all needs to change and come back to reality.

Take the red pill. I was born poor and I am disabled and I work p/t helping even more disabled guys than me. I am still poor and have been invisible as a straight white male my entire life. My dad was so poor as a child my Grandparents could not afford toys for my dad and my uncle so they played with buttons. My Grandpa landed on the shores of Iwo Jima and saw terrible things. He became a alcoholic and they traveled around working the fields picking crops in California and Idaho. They were very poor and they lived in a tent and my grandpa died of a brain aneurysm when he was 36 years old. He fought in illegal bare knuckle boxing matches for money and repeatedly was hit in the head by much bigger men and it was stated by a doctor that's probably why he died of the aneurysm. So I'm sorry but the idea of straight white men having privlidges is shot to hell with my family. My dad died very young related to working in hard labor jobs from the age of 16 to his death at 54 years old.
