Downvoted not because it isn't true, but because they aren't automatically mutually exclusive and because it is an unnecessary jab at half of the human species. Why are we paying attention to divisive bullshit instead of focusing on things that actually have the potential to help?

Because the solution to women getting assaulted is to make men think about their actions. The post wasn't anymore divisive than the average black twitter meme. It was a simple tongue in cheek piece about how women have the impossible task of figuring out if a man is going to be their life partner or their rapist & murderer.

to make men think about their actions

Do you not understand that, as a very straight man, I've never once even thought about hurting a woman?

It's absolutely divisive. Stop.

But have you thought about challenging a man who does?

[–] Jax@sh.itjust.works 0 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Ah yes, let me open myself up to physical violence because I'm a man and that's my place in the world.

Shut the fuck up

Are you aware that you get to make that choice and that women don't?
