being single is great until a romantic movie reminds me maybe i do want someone to buy me flowers and look at me with those pathetic yearning eyes

[jayne✿ @jayneiskool]

life must be so boring for people who don’t read books

And no lies were told.

[Shubh @kadaipaneeeer]

to all the men out there, i urge you not to debate women right now.

i see a lot of men defending that clown by saying, “it was just a joke” or “you went to a comedy show, why are you taking it seriously?”

that’s exactly the point.

women aren’t reacting to a joke, they’re reacting to the mindset behind it.

because when a man casually suggests that spending ₹370 on a date means a woman owes him something in return, it stops being comedy & starts revealing character.

that’s why so many women are angry not because they missed the joke but because they’ve met that man before.

& he didn’t stop there.

in another video, he went on to talk about intimate details. about kissing her. about trying to put his hands where they weren’t wanted. about openly objectifying her body & about being rejected.

if your first instinct is to defend it & feeling sad about him losing his job over a viral reel, maybe ask yourself why.

it is exhausting to be a woman.

not just in rural villages.

not just in small towns.

everywhere on this earth.

women spend their lives calculating risks that most of us men never even notice.

which road to take.

whether to share their live location

whether to ignore a comment or confront it.

whether the man staring at them is just staring or planning something worse.

in past one month, three of my friends shared three different stories with me & honestly i had no idea how to even console them

one had an old man masturbate in front of her while she was returning from the gym at seven in the morning.

another stepped outside her house & walked 100 metres thinking it was the blinkit guy cause she ordered something. but no it wasn’t. it was a complete stranger who asked her to help her with an address & showed her a glimpse pornography on his phone & sped away with an evil smile.

the third stepped out of the gym (same gym as mine), crossed the road and was groped by a man on a passing bike.

three women. three stories. one month.

the saddest part is that none of those stories will shock most women reading this because almost every woman has her own version.

a stranger who followed her home.

a man who stood too close.

a relative who made her uncomfortable.

a crowd that looked away.

women don’t need statistics to understand fear.

many of them have lived it.

and that’s why so many men miss the point.

yes, some women use men, reject men for money & behave badly.

but those things do not make men afraid to walk home alone at night. they do not make men stay in high alert mode 24*7. they do not make men text their friends & family that : “i reached safely.”

they do not make men rethink what they wear before stepping outside. that is the difference.

so when women are angry, stop rushing to explain why they shouldn’t be. stop using your manchild logic to make her feel more stupid for venting out.

stop treating every expression of pain like a debate competition.

stop responding with “not all men.”

women already know it is not all men.

the problem is that it is enough men.

enough men for almost every woman to have a story.

enough men for mothers to worry.

enough men for daughters to stay alert.

enough men for fear to become routine.

there is so much that we as men will never fully understand but something does not need to be personally experienced to be taken seriously.

patriarchy isn’t just a system. it is a habit.

it lives in jokes. it lives in silences.

it lives in the casual objectification of women disguised as humour.

it lives in comment sections where women are reduced to objects and cuss words for having a voice.

it lives in the laughter that follows a degrading joke about women.

most of us inherited parts of it without choosing to, but being an adult means deciding what stays and what goes.

unlearn it because one day a woman will trust you enough to feel safe around you and if she cannot feel safe with the men who claim to love her then ask yourself what exactly have we become ???

Your daughter wears a crop top. You panic. Your son watches porn that degrades women. You shrug. You're teaching her shame. You're teaching him entitlement.

[🦢 @ZainabSana2622]

I once had a boyfriend tell me that if I tried, I could force my period out in one day, because the uterus is a muscle. This is why men shouldn't be legislating women's reproductive health.

[Maryam @hell_line0]

Women grow hair on and around their breasts, chests, legs, arms, stomachs, faces; pretty much anywhere their genetics allow and that’s completely normal.

What’s strange is men who’ve never touched a razor trying to shame women for not looking like hairless babies.

[🦢 @damnidc__]

Women: we've seen the trashiest of men, nothing can surprise us now

Men:

[💗 @ma1ybe]

Meanwhile, they scream like banshees just to lift weights. Or when their football team is losing. Or when they lose a video game. But yeah, less emotional for sure.

[A. @Romazehari]

Women are out here covering their drinks, sharing live locations, gripping their keys between their fingers, and avoiding eye contact so they don’t get harassed…

MEN are online crying about women not smiling at them. CLOWNS 💀

[💗 @ma1ybe]

Even in death, women are not safe.

[MP Arizona☀️🏳️‍🌈💙🌵🐕🐕‍🦺🫂💦🏜🐟🌴🎙🌎🌻♍️🌊 @AzPetrich]

If you take the Bible literally when it talks about gay people, but not when it says that men should chop off their hands if they touch a woman inappropriately, or gouge out their eyes if they look at a woman inappropriately, then I think you just want an excuse to

Taught my son that he is 100% responsible for preventing pregnancy.

It’s your bodily fluid that causes pregnancy— so it’s your responsibility to keep it to yourself.

A lot of you fathers missed this part of “the talk”

[mahrukh @parhloumahrukh]

So Rape Academy dot com can stay up and running, but when women create a database of their abusers, that’s immediately taken down.

What the fuck?

[miia @miiagarro]

[Maryam @hell_line0]

Why is there no Period store??? A one stop shop for all your flow needs???

It would have pads, diva cups, tampons, and underwear!

ENDOMETRIOSIS RELIEF and NSAIDs.

Birth control options: the pill, an IUD, and the depot shot.

CHOCOLATE.

OPEN 24hrs.

[Ballsy @shani_cooks]

C**doms have been found inside animals and even corpsé*s but yes, please blame women's clothing.

[Kia 🧸ྀི @xevekiah]

i mean y’all forget you have mothers when you rape, insult, molest, stalk, abuse women.
