Armie speaking German to trash talk a woman


Something like "does she ever shut up" was just sexist to me. I was surprised they kept it in, given that it would turn women off this show.

reply

how is saying "that person never shuts up" sexist?

The way he said it

reply

i don't believe that's true, if anything it's linguistic discrimination because he didn't mutter it in english

also rude to speak in foreign tongues, especially at a boardroom meeting.

reply

I thought so too!

reply

Its a TV show not a true board room in the real world.

reply

Rude in any context...

reply

Are you for real? Saying someone never shuts up is sexist now because that someone happens to be a woman? Incidentally, most people who never shut up ARE women anyway. But he didn't say that. 

Poster is just easily triggered, just give him/her whatever it is some bubbles and coloring books and they'll be fine.

Not sexist, but certainly inappropriate.

Ever have a pedicure where the Korean girls working on your toes are suddenly speaking in their language in front of you? You know they're talking trash.

reply

I thought manicurist were usually Vietnamese.

reply

The girls in my local place are Korean.

reply

Interesting.

I live in the Midwest (right outside of Chicago) and in all the shops here they are Vietnamese.

reply

I was told by bothe Vietnamese and Koreans that Vietnamese did nails and Koreans did donut shops once. ? Either way, I like my pedicures and I like my donuts.

reply

You know. Maybe my pedicurist is Vietnamese. I could have sworn they were Korean. I'm in Canada, so I'm not sure if it's the same everywhere.

No matter. They still talk Sh*t about you.

reply

You must be hell to talk to.


How stating the obvious is sexist is beyond me. Lisa Leslie said the same thing this past episode, so it really is an observation.

reply

I thought it was one of the funniest scenes from the first episode, and I'm a woman myself. I was thinking exactly the same thing Arnie was too, good God has this world become too PC!

reply

Yes. Too PC. EVERYTHING is offensive and sexist/racist/homophobic these days.

reply

Sounds like another butt hurt liberal. Get over it already. Good grief. Really tired of people being "offended" by every little thing. And by the way, she was talking way too much.

reply

It's funny but say it in English so people will understand. Contestants don't get the courtesy of captions.

reply

He was right though.
