Stereotypes

November 17, 2005 7:36 PM | permalink | comments: 0

I stumbled across the Dilbert blog the other day. He was talking about "Unfair Stereotypes," and relating it to the bombings in Jordan. He wrote, "The one woman in the group apparently couldn’t figure out how to operate her suicide belt. I’m just wondering, how many women heard that story on the news and thought 'Crap. Why did it have to be the woman who couldn’t blow herself up?'"

I just got a kick out of that. If it had been me, I would have been the one who couldn't figure it out (I'm a software guy, not a hardware guy), but Pam wouldn't have had any trouble.

My goodness, this is morbid. I'm gonna stop right now.

About Me

Steve DennieCareer-wise, I've been hanging around and writing about and cheering on churches and pastors for the past 25 years as my denomination's Communications Director.
I write primarily for my own amusement. If anyone wants to eavesdrop, they're welcome to it. My heartbeat is serving God faithfully through the local church. But my posts repeatedly stray into sports, politics, movies, and other nonsense.
I've been blogging since 2004, and it's been fun. Please understand that, though I work for the United Brethren in Christ denomination, the nonsense I spew out here comes from my own semi-functional brain in a totally personal, non-official capacity. Yes, that's a disclaimer.
