    Men killing women and women being afraid of being killed by men is apparently exactly the same thing, and we’re sexist for even noticing it. How dare we make them aware of an uncomfortable truth that they were successfully ignoring?

    As always, noticing bigotry is the real bigotry.

      It’s not a hard concept to grasp. Thank you for saying it, and don’t pay the salty dudes here any mind. I readily tell the ones that argue on behalf of their egos to just talk to any woman they know about this, and I always get some half-cocked “well they’re bigots too” line.

      Like yeah sure, every woman is explicitly taught by other women not to put themselves in a potentially compromising position with a man because all women are secretly bigots.

      The male ego is such a fragile thing.

        Thanks for saying that. The sheer volume of unadulterated bullshit can be a little bit gaslighting sometimes.

          I wanna add that it’s a delight to see someone competently explaining something that needs to be more widely understood.

          This is what social media should be for. The ever advancing push towards consensus and common understanding.
