You know how, once you notice that every advertisement (and most shows) feature a white woman with a black man, you can never un-see?
Well, I have another one for you. Watching any movie or TV show featuring a Strong Female Character in any action sequence, specifically watch the stuntmen and how they have to contort to accommodate her 110% to sell being "stuck" or "thrown".
It’s weird seeing ads for anything in the Bay because it’s mostly Chinese and Indian out here with ads that are largely composed of black people and white women. Even at the Universities, you’d think the ads were all for Kwanza despite there being almost no black people at any of the big name schools. Crazy Rich Asians with some Bollywood thrown in is a more realistic depiction of our population than our actual ads in this area.
The weirdest example I’ve seen recently of white women being with black men for no reason in movies was the family in The Social Dilemma. White mother, most of the kids are white, maybe one of them’s a mixed kid with a white face. You know that someone casting that sat down and decided that, despite it having no narrative importance, they were going to cast a black man as the husband to a white family on a fucking documentary about social media. You would never see them do that with a black family. Or an Asian family. They are actively displaying contempt for white men. If you did that just 30 years ago, or even 10-15 years ago, everybody would be saying “Why the fuck is the dad of that white family black? Are they even going to explain that? This is a fucking dramatized documentary. It’s okay if a black guy married a divorced white woman but are they even going to explain that? ”

Haha, I suppose that is true too.
