"I can tell my husband what that's like, but he doesn't viscerally understand it. That isn't an insult to him; it's just a fact. "
I mean no offence to you personally but I keep thinking about and laughing at this statement. Your husband who is twice as likely to be assaulted by a stranger as you just can't understand what it is like to be in danger?
It's a real feminist Marie Antoinette "Let them eat cake" moment. Honestly I have to ask who misled you that women are less safe than men? Women have far less reason to fear strangers than men do.
You're a bit like an American talking to a Syrian refugee and saying "Gun crime is bad in my area, there are a lot of shootings. You wouldn't know what that is like... You just couldn't understand. No Offense".
Is it normal to be mixed and 50/50 on feminism
