@CoNN13Killz: please remember that in the beginning of this conversation I said it isn't just women, but how would you feel if I in response to you sharing your trauma said "oh but not all women are like that we all don't do that" you would probably feel invalidated and I actually also have been abused and violated by women but what men did to me was far more horrific and men harass me 100000000x more than woman ever have and by calling out possibly invalidating things that were said it helps men in the long run, when men post about their sa all I see is kind and reassuring comments (mostly from women) but when women do the same thing all I see are men saying "liar" "not true" "you were asking for it" ect. Men don't get "held accountable" for their clothing choices in the discussion of assault, litteral stats show 1 in every 7 women and 1 in every 72 men it's a literal statistic. Look I'm sincerely sorry if I upset or irritated you, I was genuinely just trying to explain how what you said could be hurtful, I not going to be able to change your mind, but genuinely please be careful in what you say on someone's post when their sharing a traumatic experience and are being emotionaly vaunrable, it could be taken the wrong way, we obviously misunderstood eachother and I'm sorry if I came off the wrong way, I am not however sorry for the point I made, I hope you can think about and consider my point of view.

@urloverboy: yes I understand but trans women don't just get these things they also get k!113d on top of that misogyny runs rampid in our society I never said it doesn't happen to men I'm just trying to explain I'm not trying to see invalidating but that is simply incorrect men harass women (especially trans women) far more than anyone

@KandiCrunch: dudeeee

atleast my teacher reprimands the kids in my class.

she uses the name i prefer in school, and she compliments my work a lot because well, i know what im doing and i do it well, and i catch on pretty quickly. She still uses fem pronouns/terms (especially in spanish because there arent a lot of common terms that r gender-neutral in spanish. i mean hell almost all nouns are either fem or masc)

@Moon9: ive also been abused by men and i think that women have to deal with a lot of bull shit and it may b hard 2 tell who is bad and who is not but woman also do abuse too and men never get heard when they get abused and i know this from experience and also my own mother violated me and i know at three woman who have abused my friends because they have no 1 to go 2 and those woman knew that and they knew they could pin it on my friends w ease they even blackmailed them w it

@Lord_Cookie: TW SA

first off I never said they can't bc they're stupid I said it bc they literally don't have the privilege too, yes men deal with sexism but has it ever stopped them from voting? From reading? From having a job? From getting equal pay? From having bodily autonomy? How come you only mention the sexism men deal with when I'm trying to point out how something that was said can be invalidating to women? Like oh you were r@p3d by a man but don't worry not all men are assholes, like no they aren't but I'm still going to be afraid of men my whole entire life. Also as an autistic woman I littlerally cannot differenceate, so no not all women can. After being followed home, being assaulted, catcalled, harassed and more BY MEN I'm not going to trust men, I'm not going to like men automatically, there are so many other women out there like me, also I don't think men are dealing with literal femicide RIGHT NOW as we speak, I can send you some links and resources if you would like me too. I never once said all men are bad I said women don't have the privilege to experience that in life. I was trying to explain that what was said can be extremely invalidating and harmful I said COULD BE not that it inherently was, I think you may have misunderstood my point.

Edit: going off of Connie's point in there are bad people of all genders, yes I obviously know that but I've never been followed home, catcalled, invalidated and more by a woman never once in my life, statistics also show that men do all of those things more than women, I again can link sources and statistics

dude I took a spanish class for 4 months. Worst 4 months of my life. So many annoying homophobic boys. The teacher was also like a really cringe old man chad who would usually laugh at these jokes.
