I don't necessarily think it was sexist to begin with. But it was probably inappropriate given the current climate on power dynamics and relationships lol.

holy fuck, they actually removed it? i was following one of those twitter threads when it came up but was unaware of the outcome.
the chilli was misleading and another image is better suited for what it's actual purpose was. FYI for people unawares: there is a site, ratemyprofessor, which is exactly what it sounds like. one of the rating metrics was a chilli image that was supposed to express "dynamic, exciting class", or "hot" in the non-sexual sense. But a lot of people used it as a way of saying the professor is physically attractive. --- let's positive thinking [tell me about a complicated man] ... Copied to Clipboard!

This was just some really silly backtracking on the company's side. They themselves have advertised in such a way to suggest the hotness was literal, or metaphorically literal.

ClunkerSlim posted... I don't understand, was the hotness rating a measure of them being a good or bad professor or was it a reading of their looks solely? Based on what you posted if they get rated above a certain amount they get a chili pepper, was that a measure of their rating based upon looks or the separate reading of their work as a professor and we're there even two different rating systems? Also why the fuck would the rate my professor even site have a rating system based on the looks of the professor at all? --- Posted with GameRaven 3.5.1 ... Copied to Clipboard!

COVxy posted...iHuman posted...Bad professors exists But to pretend like these aren't all correlated in the subjective sense is silly. If you have a professor teaching a class at a high level and you don't follow because you don't put in enough time (because you usually don't have to), you are going to perceive your grade as dependent on the professor, not yourself. Since other classes didn't require that time, and yet when you did the same thing for this class you got a bad grade! The professor must have just been bad at teaching. ratemyprofessor ratings are almost all guiding other students how to have the easiest time to pass their required courses, in my experience. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] ...
