I donāt follow you. I stumbled across your blog through a rabbithole and I checked out your recent series of asks. And at first I was disinclined to post an ask at all, because itās so easy to have anything a random person has to say to the diatribe youāve been spewing as mansplaining at best, or misogynistic even worse.
But I think your opinions and stats that youāve cited is remarkably biased and short sighted. Ignore the fact that youāre citing American stats - which is also to be expected as the typical yankee thinking their country is the centre of the universe - have you even once regarded world stats? Have you understood - truly understood - just how bad the violence against women problem is worldwide? How in Canada rape allegations are typically pursued and believed in core cities but dismissed in rural areas, or how frequent rape is in Africa, or how women are constantly groped in Japan and just expected to stay meek and silent?
These problems are societal, institutional and itās going to take hundreds of years if not thousands to overcome.
But itās not so simple as just violence against women. 1 in 7 men experience violence in intimate relationships. Men fight and kill eachother and the violence done against women - however heartbreaking it might be - pales in comparison to the violence men do against other men.
Butā¦ I think itās really easy to be angry at men. At face value blanket statements like āmen fucking suckā are such a fucking cop out. There are abusive women, I donāt need to cite examples about the teachers, and prison guards and criminals and so forth. I could just as easily say āwomen fucking suckā - to which the only retort you really have that matters is āyeah but not as much as menā.
Even yourself. You donāt want āfat and uglyā men hitting on you, which is you doing the exact same to them that theyāre doing to you. Theyāre hitting on you because theyāre projecting their attraction. Youāre rejecting them because they donāt meet your standards. Itās different sides of the same coin!
I think youāre young. You havenāt lived enough to truly understand how bad it is. I am not being dismissive of what happens to YOU. No one should receive nasty comments when they post a picture. Youāre not meat. Iām not saying that your viewpoint isnāt valid. Iām saying that youāve got a fraction of the information you need.
But some of us men are out here, fighting the fight. Trying to affect change. Creating dialogues, actively pursuing a difference in the world. Alongside the women who want the same things. And as a 40ish man who has been doing this for 20 yearsā¦ chill. The. Fuck. Out. Youāre going to burn yourself out before you make any significant impact. Itās going to take the entire human race to change these problems.
Iām staying in anonymous not because Iām a āpussyā, but because Iām never going to think of you again and itās not about me. I just hope I gave you something to think about.
quite frankly, youāve given me nothing to think about. once again, youāre proving my point that men are violent and gross. ofc men have male on male crime, theyāre scientifically more violent. i couldāve told you that from the beginning lmao. why would i be sympathetic towards that situation when i already knew that men were violent, as iāve stated before?
and yes i used american statistics, i live in fucking america??? am i supposed to use statistics for other countries? and like i JUST SAID, YOURE PROVING MY POINT FURTHER. I KNOW MEN R4PE, I KNOW MEN ARE VIOLENT IN OTHER COUNTRIES AS WELL.
and yes i will fat shame because you donāt understand how gross it is when a man thatās old enough to be your dad is hitting on you. especially when youāre a minor. i never invited attractive men into my life either though, theyāre just as gross and bad.
now you wanna say i donāt understand the severity of the problem but iām literally the one trying to fix it, youāre proving my point but think youāre not because you are literally mansplaining. iām putting my emotions out there, these emotions have been created by FUCKING MEN. would i be this angry if iād never been r4ped, assaulted, abused, or manipulated? hmmmmmm probably not. look at yourself, you called me a piece of meat and then retracted it when i pulled out a sensible argument. youāre just as stupid as anyone else in your kind :) you canāt say things and then take it back when you wanna act all high and mighty. iām 18 years old, itās sad that i have such strong feelings on this already in my life. i will protect everyone i can, i donāt give a fuck if that bothers you. it doesnāt take the entire human race, i will not stop. you donāt know what iāve seen and how many children iāve already saved and how many predators iāve already put in jail. you donāt fucking know me or what iāve been through or if iāll burn out. use the bullshit excuse that iām young, itās not like old men are any more sensible than a 12 year old boy. age isnāt a factor here, iāve already been shown how the world is. i will not stop until i get all of you motherfuckers.
