@paige_rossi3 Yes, if sexism built into the system the only way to remove it is to call attention to it

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

@17comm316 I think the few POC that reach fame then become the standard for other POC or develop a strong following/bond the community

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

@nespinos2 I agree but the audience also matters. It is likely that her followers have similar ideologies

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

@haserb32 I think men of color feel better recognizing the scam before it affects them. White men probably don't notice spambots as often because it is normal for them to get contacted by men whose profiles are similar to the spambots

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Is it racist to have racial preferences in online dating? Yes because making a general statement about one race is probably based on stereotypes and limits your interactions with those people

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

The spambots needs to perform gender in a way that reflects the typical "All American Male"

Blacks are penalized more for petty crimes than whites, that label on their record makes it harder to find jobs and break the surrounding stereotypes #COMM316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Does increased use of social media help people to find others to identify with or does it make it harder to choose where you think you belong? #COMM316 (2/2)

If BIID officially enters the DSM I think it would be more accepted in society because research would support it as a medical issue. #COMM316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Anonymous internet commenters are not concerned with their audience, this could be why their comments reveals their true morals #comm316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Many people don't grasp the concept of intersectionality because race is a master status #comm316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Are instafamous people less selective in what they post because they need a constant stream of content to keep the fame? #comm316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Can anyone really be a microcelebrity or do they need to already possess certain characteristics? #comm316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

I think the data in the digital divide article may not be relevant because more people are on the internet today than years ago #comm316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Less people produce than consume online content, because it's easier to watch a video than make one. #comm316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Does the speed/convenience of dating apps prevent people from trying to meet potential partners in person first? #COMM316

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

Could part of the reason why women are so picky when responding to men while online dating be because they have more options? #comm316

"when a man complains about a gender issue affecting men, he’s labelled as a misogynist and whiner" #comm316 (1/2)

[Comm Student 316 @commstudent316]

This is because some men only care about men's behavior when it affects men. When women complain it is not taken seriously #comm316 (2/2)
