And hear me out, because it's not that I think you harbor any bad intent, but the phrase makes me cringe every time. In modern Japan, kimonos are predominantly worn by women. The phrase, "open the kimono" has this creepy objectification to it that makes me uncomfortable. Like it's "Ooooo... let's pull up the robe and see the naughty bits! How ribald!"
Look- I know you lifted this from Nate Silver. And if that's not who you lifted it from, let's just agree that it was anyways. So you don't actually harbor any blame or responsibility. This is Nate Silver's fault. What a dick Nate Silver is, right?Statistics: Posted by Kyle — Thu Apr 11, 2019 1:38 pm
