okay rant time.
There has been a seemingly uptake in men liking mascs or butches and publicly talking abt it, and in all honesty i think this is rooted in misogyny, homophobia and also rape culture.
The issue is not men finding masculine women attractive, thats fine! you can have a type! its the fact that they are SPECIFICALLY after butches, studs and masc lesbians. There are so many masculine straight women, but they do not care about them, why? I think it has to do with this fantasy a lot of straight men have of turning a lesbian “normal” (attracted to men). These men cannot STAND the idea of a woman not being attracted to them or their entire gender.
Multiple of these men have stated “the fact they dont want me makes me want them MORE” and i dont think i have to explain why this contributes to rape culture but i will anyways! there is a very common idea of “if you just keep trying she’ll say yes!” now realistically this is obsessive, stalkerish and coercion. someone continuously asking you about something to which you keep saying no to before finally giving in and agreeing is coercion. In sexual settings this is rape/ sexual assault. in romantic situations this is forcing someone to be with you just to be free of your constant torment. these men have this idea that if they just keep trying they will get what they want.
Which leds into both homophobia (specifically lesbophobia) and misogyny. they do not take women or their relationships outside of men seriously. They dont take women seriously. In their heads the fact that these women dont want them makes them a prize to be earned. They cannot control lesbians because lesbians want nothing to do with them. this fantasy often goes hand in hand with turning said lesbian both straight and into a docile housewife. they want control. they want to break women down until they are shells of themselves. Until they will do whatever they want.
Ion wanna hear any “not all men!” or “its not that deep” because time and time again it has been proven it IS that deep, also who cares that its not all men? majority of men while not technically being involved in rape culture actually support it and benefit from it and im sick of seeing grown ass men come online thirsting after women who do not want to be sexualised by them
