We forgot about /r/menslib 's take on Will Smith slapping Chris Rock :marseymad:

I would heavily encourage any non-black people reading this to seek out and silently read conversations that black people are having, specifically black women and even more specifically disabled black women.

Yes, there are things we can reflect on, and things that Chris Rock's insulting and violent 'joke' and Will Smith's violent physical and verbal reaction to it can teach us about masculinity. But intersectionality is important- what are black men discussing about their masculinity? What are black women discussing about how they are affected by the two types of violence displayed last night?

This has nothing to do with a joke about Jada's hair. This has everything to do with toxic masculinity and the very real and public cheating and humiliation that Jada put Will through. Jada cheated with their son's friend and what that has very publicly done to the psyche of Will Smith specifically has not been fun to watch. This is basically just a dude in a toxic relationship who decided to act out violently towards others instead of taking things in stride and ending his relationship. This bluster comes from him overreacting and being triggered already. LET ME REPEAT THIS IN THE BACK FOR EVERYONE INVOLVED IN THIS THREAD: VIOLENCE IS NEVER THE ANSWER IF IT CAN BE AVOIDED. Certainly not on national television during the freaking Oscars. And am I supposed to pretend that Smith would have hit anyone that was his size or bigger? You think he would have struck Terri Cruz had he made an offhand joke? The hair comment was literally the LEAST he could have joked about when it came to this famous couple.

For all the people on here talking about violence isn't the answer, I hope you're just as consistent in preaching this in your own backyards.

I'm assuming all of you "violence isn't the answer people" are anti military and anti police too?

All I’m going to say in regards to this debacle is talk to your black, male friends about this, If you have any. I think in order for us to truly understand what, happened last night, you have to possess a decent enough understanding of blackness, blackness in the white gaze, and the history of black men engaging with the ideas of the patriarchy

Fellow redditors, please understand that violence is inherent in black culture, but if a black person tells you that it's somehow not racist anymore

Imagine being black and having a bunch of mayos frantically calling you up today and asking for direction on how they should feel about two celebrities getting in a slapfight. The "emotional labor" bullshit actually is starting to make sense. Maybe the other cuck saying that you should "seek out and silently read conversations that black people are having" is on the right track. I doubt menslibbers are capable of talking to blacks without being really fricking annoying.

Justice is not telling other people that they aren't allowed to have opinions about what happened between two human beings onstage because of the color of their skin. A bunch of people online talking about how we don't understand black culture. You are telling me that black culture is violence, you dumbasses. Telling me that the people who essentially came up with and tell the best yo mama jokes can't stand a mild poke at a rich man's rich celebrity wife without resorting to violence. Really with this? Then you start jawing about how white people have no culture and your next tweet is about how you loved the new season of Bridgerton and Shonda Rimes is a kween.

Is there any case law on gendered disabilities? I'm kinda curious now but not enough to look it up. The modern trans dynamic probably complicates things too. I'm sure there are disabilities/conditions specific to each s*x but I imagine most/all of them have biomarkers other than "hair gone", and "hair gone" is the "disabling" symptom in this case.

Jump in the discussion.

No email address required.

Idk what the deal is with Jada but an ex of mine had alopecia and there's a test they do to see if your immune system attacks your hair follicles, bc that's what causes real alopecia. Since it's medically provable in most cases (ie not simply being an uggo), you can get legally fricked over for treating them differently.

Black women suffer higher rates of domestic violence than any other women, save for Native Americans. Maybe black men need to reexamine their toxic masculinity. Might do wonders for their jail numbers.

Someone in here pointed it out before but if you actually watch the video, Will Smith’s initial reaction is to laugh. Then:

  1. His wife gives him a look
  2. Chris Rock makes the cuck joke

So either,

  1. Will Smith was super slow to understand the joke
  2. Jada’s look makes him go
  3. The cuck joke, and not the bald joke, sets him off.

Why is nobody talking about this???

Sorry, wasn't clear about that. I'm fine with discussing it here, I just meant don't butt in to conversations that black people are having in their spaces. Read them, but don't interject yourself into their spaces without a specific invitation.
