I feel like in the dating arena it's been harder for me personally because i obviously look outwardly white and male and it's getting more difficult to be this way I admit but the thing is that i honestly think we as a cohort did it to ourselves and am not really self pitying about it.
The thing is ladies I fear your exboyfriends- and it's not the bodily injuries he can inflict although that does frighten me as well but the bad lessons that he taught you that you might assume we are all like when you go out with us.
i fear if I don't say anything about men like Steve crowder mocking AOC's trauma that you will think I don't disapprove strongly and vocally of the man.
I don't fear the wrath of conservative men against me for calling the monsters our- it's not their opinions that scare me.
no. it's you.
dating has kind of taken on a flavor of feeling sort of like I get punished for every vile disturbing act your ex partners did.
it feels like i've paid a price for every time I've held my tongue and failed to call out a man I felt was misbehaving.
every time I said nothing.
and for years of silence.
and to be clear in spite of being on your side I did - I stayed quet for far too long- it's what I regret.
I didn't want to deal with the drama- but now I see.
I started calling out male misbehavior when I see it because I hear the women who finally cannot take it anymore i hear the radfems arguing for seperation I hear their voices I hear the fear I hear the calling out of toxic masculinity and the fact that our cohort has killed so many minorities just because...
I don't know how to go forward anymore without calling out the men who act like monsters because you know it's like if you date a girl and she's had former partners and those guys want to move fast and rapidly sexually esclate for instance if you don't try to get your dick inside her in rapid secession she might think you think she's ugly and it's like I pay a price of being unable to move slow in dating because other guys didn't and that's not what she expects and it's like this...
it's so difficult to get an opportunity to be in a relationship with you ladies and yet once I do I do everything in my power to keep her- there's no end to the effort i'll put in to keep her with me...
my friends are mostly girls- you don't have to deal with the stupid friends leaving mean comments towards you-you might get jealous but you know that's just how it is.
I genuinely am afraid though if I don't call our misbehaving men it will seem like I approve of their behavior.
