GoofSchmooferLadies if all the men of the world disappeared for 24 hours, they are fine they will come back, BUT during those 24 hours what are YOU doing?
andrewChilling with bears, if I understand recent events correctly.
toothpaste_sandwichI think I missed this, what is being referred to here?
Viral hypothetical “would you rather spend a night in the woods with a bear or a man”. Toxic men getting butthurt when women chose the bear
It's toxic to not want to be treated like a monster for something I didn't do?
The Dark Lord ☑️Women were talking about men in general. Some men took it as though they specifically were being targeted. If women don’t feel comfortable running alone at night because men can be predators, men in general should listen. When I hear that, I don’t take offence. I’m with you, I’ve never done anything. But we should be trying to figure out ways that women can feel more comfortable around men. Women shouldn’t need to feel like they have their guard up, and listening is the first step.
I am listening, and what I'm hearing is that I, as an innocent person, am a source of terror for someone I've never met because of a fact of my biology that I have no control over. I have no ability to change the feelings of someone else, because no matter what, those feelings are only able to be changed by the person feeling them. I can say I'm innocent and not a threat until I'm blue in the face, I can act as non-threatening as I possibly can, I can leave women alone in public. None of that matters because I'm not the one with the power over those feelings.
You say you’re listening but all you’re hearing is how what is being said affects you.
You appear to see yourself as a victim. This makes you more dangerous than a bear.
The bear won’t take a women’s fear of it personally. It will want to avoid confrontation.
You will definitely take it personal. You appear willing to confront them for their fear. You will demand they not be afraid of you, because you are innocent. The scenario is one of a thousand reasons they choose the bear.
A bear isn't trying to find a dating partner in a human woman...
You're sick in the head if you think being depressed over being labelled an existential threat makes me dangerous.
Demonstrate that you’re safe. Well, if you can, as mentioned earlier you seem you may struggle with that.
You’re worried about your inability to find a girlfriend. Women who date men are worried about their safety, and for good reason. So, why would I ever set a friend up with a man who acts the way you are? I have men I’d gladly set friends up with. They demonstrate that they’re safe and easy to be around and that they’re more concerned with not scaring women than they are with not scaring women away.
Found the incel.
Feel better?
