I’m honestly confused at how the writers are sexist or racist, they seem to be the exact opposite.

Top-notch episode finish for this series. I love the evil trio, and Cryer steps up as a pretty good Luthor so far with some range.
Although, I'm not sure what utility making the mansion that everybody knows is there invisible....
Just to screw with the neighbors? Sure.If you could turn your house invisible, you know you'd do it at least once a day.

Any ideas on what Lex wanted Miss Teschmacher to do when she "took care" of Lena?
I thought Lex turned on the mansion's cloaking device to make it harder for rescuers to find the front door.
Literally.

Some thoughts--I thought Cryer did a good job, and I was a bit surprised that Lex was written somewhat in character. Given the sexism and racism of the show's writers, I was expecting Lex to be treated as Lena's inferior and bow down to her as her submissive, like Superman did to Kara. Yes, he did make the comment about Kryptonite, but I couldn't expect the writers not at least have a little of that.
However, as a whole, Lex actually came off somewhat formidable. Of course, Clark actually was written like Superman in the first appearance, before the writers decided to weaken Superman to make Supergirl look stronger. Hopefully they won't do the same with Lex.
It could also have something to do with the fact that he refused to produce a real birth certificate for a long time. He fed the flames, as a means of getting his base to cry racism. It clearly worked for him.
Because the writers clearly do not care about Superman at all, and just want to use him as a prop to make Supergirl look strong by making him look weak. They have done nothing but devalue Superman on this show ever since his second appearance. Let's not forget the writers wrote the lines, "the world doesn't need a Superman when it has a Supergirl." There is no line that proves their feelings toward Superman any better than that one.
For one, they are family, and the weak writing in that scene was topped only by the further submissiveness of Superman since. And don't get me started on the absurdity of Batman being able to last more than half a second against Superman. That's even more stupid than Supergirl beating him. Also, the whole purpose of that fight was to make Supergirl look good at Superman's expense. Wonder Woman doesn't need to beat Superman to be a powerful hero. She's powerful in her own right. Supergirl needed Superman to be written weakly to make her look like she was more important than she is in the comic world. That shows weak writing. Superman could easily have been a background/supporting character, who only helped Kara when the stakes got really big, and the story could have been written so that there were multiple villains giving each something to do. But instead, we got misandry.
Against heroes or villains, Superman should never lose--especially in a fair fight. Physically, only Darkseid could be a match for him. Struggling is fine, losing is not. You don't beat Superman by fighting him. You hurt him through people he cares about, which is pretty much everyone.
Superman can take a beating and can be down, but never out. No better example of this than Apokolips Now on the 1996 cartoon. He struggled, but even at his worst, he was ready to fight Darkseid to the death. It wasn't until Darkseid killed Dan Turpin that Superman lost--even when the war was won.
I kind of like this analogy, but Superman is more like Hogan, pre nWo of course. He is the one who fights for truth, justice and the American way. He stands for all that is good and right. He is the hero of heroes. I'm not saying no one should get in offense. I'm not saying no one can hurt him. But beat him? No. Especially someone clearly inferior like Supergirl, who shouldn't be as powerful as him, other than to satisfy some writers with chips on their shoulders.
However, this isn't my complaints but the complaints from the boards I frequent.
