This is my older half-brother. He's mad because my sister and I recently confronted him about his misogynistic internet activity, so he's lashing out at women online. Clearly, he's unwell. Please take anything he says with a grain of salt. (1/4)

Women with bigger chests are automatically called "inappropriate" and sexualized when they are completely covered and just going about their day. Same with their butts. Like knock it off.

‘They trauma dumped on me.’

You mean your friend trusted you enough to tell you about something difficult they were going through?

[Nisa ♀ @nisafeminista]

I think one of the biggest misconceptions we have as women is that misogynistic males actually give a shit about the women in their families. They don't. They hate them just as much.

"you don't seem autistic" stick me in a group situation and watch for like 4 minutes

@MadelaineLucyH I saw that my estranged older brother replied to some of your other posts on this topic. I apologize for his behavior, and wanted to let you know that your words mean a lot to me as someone who has been sexually assaulted within a relationship.

@MorozkosWitch Our whole family hopes so too ❤️

@MorozkosWitch The man you're speaking to is my estranged brother. I'm sorry you've been exposed to his bullshit. It's especially egregious because our mother endured domestic violence at the hands of multiple different men. She died at 42. How horribly disrespectful to her memory.

no shade it’s actually scary how many people think misogyny has to present itself as extreme hatred of women and violent rhetoric for them to consider it as such. casual misogyny is dangerous precisely because it often presents itself as normal, harmless, or “just a joke”

if men themselves don't care about their own mental health why the fcck should i

I think we should replace every data center with a cat café.

Girls will survive abuse, heartbreak, grief, and unspeakable tragedies and still move through the world with kindness and compassion, but one minor inconvenience in a man's childhood and he spends the rest of his life terrorizing and poisoning everyone around him..

[Labrys @ladielabrys2]

Autistic girls are 13x more likely than non-autists to DIE by suicide. The rate of death by suicide of autistic girls is significantly higher than of autistic boys.
90% of autistic girls have been sexually abused. Thats 9/10 autistic girls.

Autistic men are genuinely evil.

Women: “I find your behavior creepy and I’m uncomfortable.”

Men: “Actually, it makes no logical sense for you to find me creepy. Stop being uncomfortable.”

[carrie @carriethefairyo]

Normalize telling men “that’s a weird thing to say” when they make gross sexual comments at you

[☺︎ @shelleddiva]

i wish platonic abuse was more openly discussed because i think it’s different from standard bullying in social groups. like abuse isn’t unique to romantic relationships. you can still be psychologically, emotionally, or physically abused in friendship too.

don’t use ai to write. use childhood trauma like a real poet.

[K. Rose @berrysweetmum]

Older men leering at pretty teenaged girls should be a shameful thing they at least try to hide, but instead we’ve got them publicly lamenting that the girls are with boys their own age (especially the ones they deem unattractive)

The problem with parents is that they are undiagnosed
