www.bvblackspin.com/2011/05/20/racist-satoshi-kanazawa-may-lose-job/2#commentsInlineI decided to put this up on the forum. Many might have already read or heard about this article that has produced a firestorm here in the good old USA. Many in the Black community are furious & asking for this man head & rightly so ! He wrote this article in" Psychology Today" online magazine. His name is Satoshi Kanazawa . I personally fault Psychology Today for putting it up to be read. I wonder why he a Japanese man felt so empowered that he could write such an article about black women in the first place. From what I have read he used purely "Junk Science" to make his point. The Black community is now demanding that Satoshi Kanazawa be FIRED !

Nesben we had this discussion over at E/S www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=15;t=004610You will find a lot of opinions on that first off anything concerning beauty is subjective and can be changed according to taste for example so-called classic beauties like Cleopatra or Helen of Troy faces that launched a thousand ships thousands of yrs a go could not launch three drunk sailors in a dingy today. Not too long ago the paper thin models in America with thin lips was all the rage,today with changing demographics everyone has to go get collagen and botox shots a well rounded posterior is insured for millions of dollars see J-lo, Beyonce, Kimcardisian amongst others Africans on the other hand generally like their women thick that's why there are places called fatting houses in quite a few African cultures. |

Anansi,
First I need to visit ES more often.I did not read the article for they got so much heat from the black community they had to take it down. But from my understanding he was stereotyping a whole racial gender as less attractive. That's impossible for one. You may have ugly individuals within a group or certain traits one might not find attractive in subgroups of a racial group, but to paint a whole racial gender, go's to far !
Dam, I've seen unattractive women in every racial group on earth including Japanese women, but it would never dawn on me to paint all women of that race as unattractive, unless i had an racial dislike of that racial group from the start.
The argument about beauty being subjective I don't buy concerning Satoshi Kawazan, there something else going on with this man !
Hell I've heard it stated that Asian men are the most unattractive men of all racial groups of men, I don't buy that either, for it's impossible. For nature doe's not work that way !

www.theroot.com/views/satoshi-kanazawa-glenn-beck-pseudoscienceA article on The Root, that I thought interesting, called" Is Satoshi Kanazawa The Glen Beck Of Pseudoscience ?" I'm glad to say I was one of the over 80,000 people that flooded Psychology Today with an on line petition from " Color Of Change" that got an apology for that awful article !

Be pro active that's what I always say,some folks like to say black folks argue too much or too confrontational but the min we relax someone somewhere start with the crazy towards us,well I for one am quite satisfied with our noise making better to be called loud and boisterous than subservient. |
