I really try not to be bioessentialist about behavior between genders, but god, are men exhausting. Especially cis men. Trying to explain my lived experience as a woman feels like trying to explain fucking genealogy to a 6 yr old with an X-men obsession
I get that its all bout who your spending your time with

Right! The only men like this that I talk to are on Yikyak thankfully. Otherwise my male friends, though admittedly sparse, are very self aware (though most of them are also queer so they have a bit more reason to be politically and socially tuned-in)

Most of the time I don’t! I’ll just have the off moment where I speak with a man that lowers my faith in humanity, but otherwise I try to be empathetic to men because they’re just as human as I and the patriarchy harms us all (though to different degrees)
