Sounds like you have a problem.

You're right, I do have a problem.
I have a problem with the sexist casting department playing into misogynistic tropes that "the American audience would rather see men on this show than women", and after 22 long years, they have finally won, and they have succeeded in guaranteeing another needless all male victory.
Out of 36 seasons, there have been 21 seasons in which more men were cast than women. Production is surely pleased as punch with this final three.
I for one am not here for it.

chill out lol, tbh it's more surprising it took 36 seasons for this
Also this is at least a diverse F3 on paper, 2 guys in their 40s, 2 young black guys, a deaf guy (which, disabled people are severely underreped on tar) and i'd say Garrett & Joel and Rob & Corey seem like surprising finalists on paper, gender diversity is important, but every form of diversity should be celebrated

I’m not going to “chill out” on issues relating to systemic misogyny in the entertainment industry, especially when it manifests in a show I hold so dear to my heart.
I agree, gender diversity is important. If you feel the same, then why are you so quick to defend this system?
Peach and Kiwi, I will be in touch.

I never defended "the system" i defended the important diverse identities outside of gender, like race and disability status

This. I'd be more upset if it were 3 teams of alpha males. But they might actually be cool.

I surely hope they are much better than Tar 9's F3.

Are they self-driving? Now that's one Covid-resultant change to the race I wouldn't mind being permanent. Racers should NOT be at the mercy of a taxi driver in the final leg!

Self driving it seems for this leg, although they have used public transportation this season (in Leg 5 at least)
