I was with you until you started saying that asexual men can’t be predators. I was raped by an ace man and ppl like OP have made it significantly harder to be believed especially within the lgbtq+ community. The rhetoric you are using is also harmful

Gay men are sexist af too, so yeah I agree all men are dangerous. Better to be safe. You would not take your chances with a loaded gun so why would you with men?

Exactly. I just hate the whole idea that certain ppl can’t be predatory bc of their identity. Like it has made coming forward about what happened to me so much harder bc I get things like “how can an ace man rape you” or “well then he wasn’t really ace” or my personal favorite, “well he had to be sexually attracted to you to rape you”. And it’s just like this helps no one

Not a perfect metaphor; you can easily check when a gun is loaded, but no so with a man. Point applies though. Caution is justified.
