Just wanted to share.
It’s funny to me this was said considering like… I know more women participating in 4b than I know aren’t. The only women I know who aren’t are women already in commitments.
And then I had others in this thread say I’m making light of a serious movement… meanwhile they are saying the most sexiest things possible, wondering why women don’t feel safe with them.
It’s so frustrating because they think sexism is small scale on the whole issue. But sexism is where violence finds excuses.
I’m so tired of this being the response or literally just terrible responses to 4b because it truly shows men do not and will not take this issue seriously. They think it’s just tik tok bullshit or whatever else.
It’s so frustrating because it proves it’s point. They mansplain the movement to women and its origin, they act like we’re bad people for participating, they act like we’re so foolish or horrid for doing it, or that is delusional and not real.
And my biggest frustration about it is not even just the response itself, rather them thinking it’s only about the violence or abuse.
It’s about the risk of pregnancy that you can’t terminate in the US. It’s about not being able to dnc and dying from sepsis because a miscarriage, and the laws made around a miscarriage because these men can’t even educate themselves on our bodies.
It’s about the men who still to this day defend their rapist friends or excuse the abuse their male friends perpetrate.
It’s about the comments you see on X that scare you in public because the disgusting nature of it.
It’s about the women who have been assaulted and go unheard & unbelieved. It’s about the murders hidden by cops and the DV excused.
It’s about the shit you see every weekend on Dateline or a true crime special like worst ex ever, where women do report and are believed but the guy still only serves 30 days with time counted.
It’s about much more than just baseline shit and I’m frustrated.
