Discussion on Gender and Racial Inequality

Infantilization of white women is dangerous, and nowhere

is this more apparent than

with Casey Anthony and Lindsay Clancy.

'Cause yes, with Lindsay Clancy, while we can all sit here and say,

"Absolutely, it

is horrible. She should have had mental healthcare

access.

It is absolutely atrocious that this was allowed to happen," the fact of the

matter

is that she still did commit these actions, and again,

there should be punishment

for these actions. The, the problem is when we start to see white women as not

culpable of our own actions. White women are just as capable of

violence as

any other demographic, and that violence needs to be treated

appropriately.

The infantilization is really frustrating, and I'm really tired of other white

people, specifically white men, acting like white women can't do anything

wrong

ever, and white women are just so pure.

Because again, that's the reason that Casey Anthony wasn't acquitted for

literally

murding- murdering her daughter and stuffing her in the trunk years ago.

Especially conventionally attractive white women, and when you compare that to the

sentences that Black and brown women receive for, like,

half of the fucking

offense, Black women are getting sentenced to prison for having

abortions in the

South, whether life-saving or not, then you can really see how this type of

treatment of white women, this privilege, hurts everybody.

It hurts all women, and we need to protect women as well as

our children and hold

other people accountable
