there is some overlap though someone who used to go to my high school and say shit like “men are oppressed and can’t cry and shit” raped his gf and got away with it. and there are many such cases u think u know them but they live among us. no one is ‘born evil’ as that would be biologically essentialist to say; and would also absolve them of accountability; it’s the way men are socialized and engineered that leads swaths of them to believe that they can use rape as ‘discipline’/power
I really wonder if you guys lack comprehension skills or just intentionally misinterpret everything. Obviously I would act in that situation. I’m referring to the paradox of women wanting perpetual help from men while simultaneously villainizing their existence. It doesn’t make any sense
Yeah😊There’s no point to men. They only know how to do two things: 1) hurt women. 2) stand by and dumbly watch other men hurt women. Why would I waste my time being a live-in therapist, personal chef, or sex slave to men when instead I can just be happy and unbothered? There’s no point to men and my sexual assault helped me realize that😁
I think you’re both wrong I’m sorry I think there are many great men in the world and we shouldn’t “hate all men” But I also recognise that sexual assault isn’t something to be dismissed and it’s sad that women need to carry pepper spray and hold their keys in between their knuckles. Not all men, but always a man.
You’re conflating whether someone is obligated to intervene and whether it’s reasonable to morally judge inaction in the face of harm. Acknowledging that intervention can involve risk does not make the expectation ‘entitlement.’ Many moral norms involve risk, calling 911, creating a distraction, speaking up, or seeking help, none of which require physical confrontation. People are not being condemned for failing to be heroes; they’re being criticized for total indifference.
tho there is no such thing as a ‘real man’ or a ‘fake one’. i get what ur trying to say but there’s no monolithic man. every man who is a rapist, a misogynist is still a man; at large, us men can’t deflect from a pervasive problem embedded in our gender socialization by saying they don’t represent men, which just prevents us from address the problem and absolves them of accountability.
