That was interesting. Helps in this instance that the host is neither Black nor White. Of course bigotry against White people is not exactly the same as the historical racism against Blacks, but the character certainly comes across as narrow-minded.

An interesting video about reverse racism from a Bangladeshi Australian.

The actress who played the narrow-minded black woman did a great job.

Spot on. And it's funny how comedy has a way of hitting the mark so well, in it's brutal honesty. Maybe it's the only time that people can express the facts without it being insulting to any person in particular. I think Canadian comedian Russell Peters is probably the master when it comes to this.

The work uniforms at the telephone exchange are remarkable.

Looks like a scene that could have been in "How I Met Your Mother."

It's increasing becoming more of a blurred line isn't it? I see nothing unusual about a man pushing a stroller etc. But maybe that is just how I see it.
There is nothing more attractive than a caring, nurturing male. I don't think it makes them any less a 'man'.
And a woman who has strong opinions and personality is not necessarily any less a 'woman'. I reckon those that feel uncomfortable with these facts, probably have issues of their own they are fighting with.
Who says that we have to follow stereotypical roles just to fit in? 'Fitting in' is highly over-estimated and a burden.

This is a particularly grim music video on the theme of harassment in school.

This little video just resulted in a whole bunch of stupid young people being convicted for graffiti vandalism once they were identified.

OK. I'm not often flabbergasted, but I am now. Watch from 2:26 onwards for full weirdness.

There's being limber, there is amazing control, then there is downright bizarre & borderline creepy. Actually, the hayseed dad at the beginning is unwatchably creepy. The girls' routine is ...... is ........ well, there are no words!
