that’s probably often the case. I’ve noticed among my guy friends that try to interrogate their own ingrained toxic masculinity, there’s a certain aversion to approaching a woman out-of-the-blue in public because it feels, to them, an inherently patriarchal act. Or, if nothing else, is liable to intimidate/scare some women on account of the clear risks we face by giving a strange man a chance. I can kind of understand from where they’re coming. ig I appreciate that more than the inverse.
well yeah, I’m not making some “boohoo men have it so tough” argument. “😰😰who will think about the men⁉️” I just don’t how to signal to those men when I’m interested/open to hooking up without initiating in some regard. I would certainly prefer to fuck someone that’s at least a little concerned with the extent to which I feel safe, but also some effort from the other side is nice.
