In my time spent browsing the Misc. section of the bodybuilding.com forum, I have observed comments and posts with strong racial undertones being taken very seriously, and moderators usually punishing said comments with temporary banishments from the forum. This is something I strongly respect and applaud. However, comments with severely sexist undertones go unnoticed and unpunished.
My argument is this: bigotry is defined as the attitude or mindset of being intolerant towards opinions, lifestyles, or identities differing from one's own. Racism falls under the umbrella of bigotism. Why is it that one type of bigotism is addressed harshly, while another type earns a turn of the cheek?

Yeah, but it's predominately male. Just deal widit. If you were an admirable girl, you would take the criticism and you would prove us wrong. You would follow in the footsteps of Susan B. Anthony, Rosa Parks and various others and trry to balance looks with the swagga of a male.
On the flipside we've got dudes from many ethnic backgrounds here, so racism would just tear sh!t up into chaos. Not that misc is chaotic anywayz.

OP, are you ok getting reps from guys just because you are female?
...Thought so.
Anyway... your assumption is wrong.
Serious sexism is punished and banned by the ops just like the serious racist stuff.
People get in trouble for that stuff w/HeatherAC all the time.
AND other females.
The mods are fairly tolerant of jokes on both subjects.
However, they both have lines you don't cross.
So... again, your premise is flawed and incorrect.R.I.P. Hector Bluntz
