  • So why post about it?
    You then make it everyone's business in an open forum.
    People are going to do what they do. Asholes are always going to be assholes.

    • It is everyone's business. Women make up half the world population and routinely get treated like their safety and autonomy isn't as important as what men want. This isn't just assholes being assholes. That's dismissive and too many people are dismissive of women asserting their basic right to exist in public without being fucked with by strangers.

      • Did you just say men don't treat the safety of women as important? I won't explain how dismissive you are being here my big post is coming up. I'll tell you there.

        • I stand behind that statement. I don't think you understood what I said, but I stand behind what I said. I don't need to defend everything I say to every man who takes issue with it.

          • So you don't stand behind your statement. If you did, you would defend it.

            • I get the sense, and I could be wrong, that you might be thinking that I owe you my time and knowledge. I don't. I just don't.

              • I don't care about you. Or your time. And I don't believe in your "knowledge". What the problem here is I'm defending my beliefs and you don't like it.

      • But you just said it's your business and no one else's.

        Speaking of being dismissive, you seem to dismiss the possibility that not all men are like your generalization and that really it could just be your perception of them. But then you'll probably tell me I'm being dismissive or condescending. Whatever. That's life. You create your own happiness.

        • MY body is my business. This issue is everybody's business.

        • Well, you kinda did answer your own question there. I said somewhere else, it isn't about attacking anyone personally or about hating men. I'm calling attention to a specific problem, stating that it's symptomatic of a larger, much more complex problem and addressing the comments that come in. And yes, saying it's 'not all men' is a cop out. I know it's not all men. If you read the comments, that should be pretty obvious. Saying it's not all men dismisses the responsibility of the men who aren't doing it but are supporting it by their inaction and benefiting by default of their sex from the subjugation of women. That said, you can be as condescending as you want. As much as some of these guys think I'm an idiot because I'm passionate about something they don't understand or care to because they think it isn't real or doesn't affect them, I'm smart enough and strong enough to handle it, and much more good natured than one might expect given the weight of the subject matter.
