@petealexharris@mastodon.scot Another thing I've noticed when having to deal with catholics is their fixation on what you do for a living. They don't look at people as individuals, they like to compartmentalise people according to profession. They like to place you in their little patriarchal hierarchical world view.
This is particularly annoying in healthcare settings. When someone is taking a medical history and suddenly you get asked what you do for a living and you can see them mentally ticking some box.

@LillyHerself@mastodon.social That's pretty odd, and not, as far as I can tell, anything to do with any of the doctrines of Roman Catholicism. For sure, cultures that occur alongside religious beliefs can be weird in their own ways too.
