I've flown more than most people who don't travel for business.
However, the amount I've flown has absolutely nothing to with the fact that many people consider male flight attendants either gay or in a woman's job. Nice try?
I'm not speaking by my opinion. I am speaking about the millions of people who think it.
And I'm telling you - I have never, EVER heard anyone state such a thing. I really cannot imagine the lack of depth in a person that would make such an assumption.

I agree with you, but it's out there and a lot of people think that way. I think a lot of times, male flight attendants are even better than females.

On the transatlantic flights I've had, the Air France and Alitalia male flight attendants actually were pretty funny to the passengers in a way that would be considered socially acceptable. They were great. I've actually had more female flight attendants get pissy about chair inclination and buckling up during mild turbulence.

When I was in college - there was a cute male flight attendant. When I got up to go to the bathroom - he came up to me and I thought maybe he was going to flirt with me. Instead, he asked me how old I was because I had to be at least 14 to sit in the emergency exit row... I was 20!!!
I have to take exception with pig farmer. I have several in my family, and they actually smell quite nice, after they shower.
I apologise !
To be fair I have only known one Pig Farmer in Ireland and no matter how much he showered and how much eau de toilette he used there was still always a faint odour... He used to use quite strong shower gels and even tried "girly" ones because they are "sweeter" and nothing could quite ever get rid of it. I have appalling eyesight but a particularly developed olfactory system and it really put me off Pig Farmers for life.
And believe me he was a BABE ! He had that Irish thing going for him , the black hair and piercing blue eyes and this gorgeous accent but I never got used to the slight waft of Pig-Sty.
I shall not slander Pig Farmers any longer though.
Didn't she have the cute biker watching her kids? He was portrayed in a giving, nurturing light.
The biker was her boyfriend. Watch it again. The woman she dropped off her kids to looked more like she was from Appalachia than LA and wore a bathrobe to the door.
Here's a story about "role appropriate" behavior. I was working on Seattle. I was walking through the floor beneath the one on which I worked.
Toothy college-educated dolt from WSU (the "country school" in the state) asks me what I did over the weekend.
Me: I saw "Erin Brockovich."
Him: That's a chick flick.
Me: It's anything but. You should see it.
When someone is that myopic, why waste your breath? It's the classic David beats Goliath legal drama, with some comedy thrown in because Julia Roberts was cast as a brassy and tacky chick.

It was a good movie, although I don't remember the daycare woman. Such a woman would cause me to raise my brow. OTOH, Erin's social-class was a key component in that movie and perhaps that was used as an example.
It was at-home daycare. Some are crappy. And paid under the table. But if it's the lady's house why dress up? Have you been to those mom and pop daycares!? They dress very unprofessional. They wear sweats and grand-ma looking clothes. No self respect. Or they were band dorks in high school. They usually hate their life. I'd watch these daycares.
