[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]He was aggressive in getting a ball. Is that fair? Sure - it’s a baseball game. I don’t think she is wrong for being mad. She may have had her hand on it. Did she know that he was giving it to his kid? No, not when she first got angry. Is it fair that now thousands of people are calling her out for one moment of her life?

No.

And while I get the term Karen is easy to understand, it’s misogynistic. We need to do better. [/quote]

It's not misogynistic to call out bad behavior. It's absurd to act like women can't be criticized for terrible behavior.  We all have choices to make. Don't act like a bit___ch in front of children (and cameras) and you won't be called out. Both the Marlins and Phillies knew she was wrong and therefore gave the kid gifts.[/quote]

DP" The term 'Karen" is misogynistic. This was a baseball fan acting poorly. Gender doesn't matter, as you say, so why call her a misogynistic name? Why isn't the headline "Phillies Fan gets Shamed"? Why are people focused on her gender?[/quote]

PP here. Oh, ok. Don't call her "Karen," but her behavior is way beyond acting poorly. She should have been arrested. [/quote]

Because if it was a man yelling at another man, no one would have noticed. It’s a middle age woman who we can label a Karen and it’s news. [/quote]

She put her hands on him. Battery.[/quote]
