telling ppl attracted to men that there are no good men out there or that men can’t love only normalizes poor treatment from men & doesn’t do anything helpful
#the idea that all men are naturally garbage is super unhelpful#because it absolves awful men of the responsibility to be better
#it also discourages men who do want to improve their behaviour but don’t know how
#by convincing them that they’ll be reviled no matter what they do
#learning how to change involves leaving confort zones
#and making yourself vulnerable by approaching other people’s spaces for advice
Also also it perpetuates internalized hatred and low self-esteem in men who are genuinely good and it leads to poor mental health and the sense that as a result of being the gender they are they are automatically to be reviled.
It can also make trans men feel bad or guilty about being men.
Favorite part of this post is that when you reblog it you also get funny brainworm asks as freebies
