    I’ve spent three days in jail because I broke up with my ex and she went to the police and told them I hit her.

      A person who bragged about barging into women’s change rooms and “grabbing them by the pussy” was elected president.

          It’s important to remember that misogyny and “the patriarchy” isn’t men vs women, it is men and women vs women. This is not about opposing sides it’s about unlearning harming behavior and rhetoric.

              Semantics a bit. The Patriarchy harms both men and women in almost innumerable ways, but it still exists primarily for the benefit of men.

              While we will all benefit greatly from the eradication of the patriarchy, it is disingenuous to pretend the ways in which it impacts us are equal across the board.

      That sucks. I hope you never have to deal with that again.

      Of the fifty guys i know well, none have had that happen. Of the fifty girls I know well, there’s 49 who have been molested. (Fake numbers because I’m not going to bother counting, but it’s pretty much right)

      If I knew you better, I could add you to the pile of stories.
