this is a really visceral representation of what way too many male friend groups find funny. they’ll still act surprised and horrified if a friend gets outed as a rapist though
it's very concerning how much people continue to downplay and minimise misogyny at a time where misogyny keeps getting worse and worse. and then also act like women are delusional for seeing it.
older men always see younger boys as kids but when it’s a 18/19/20 year old girl suddenly she’s sooo mature for her age and they have sooo much in common like ok lol
when a guy interrupts me talking about something enthusiastically to tell me he "loves listening to me ramble 😍" without acknowledging anything i just said it feels so backhanded and performative.
Why is everyone acting like sons being violently misogynistic towards their moms is some rarity now? Damn near everybody I know has a story of their brother mistreating and being misogynistic towards their mom.
Women are expected to prevent male violence, anticipate male violence, survive male violence, explain male violence, and then comfort men about male violence.
a malicious way men benefit from a culture where masculinity and sexual predation are one of the same is how it increases the burden of childcare on women. it is the unspoken rule that you can’t trust a grandfather, uncle, male neighbor or even the father to take care of children
