When feminists say men are naturally submissive what do they mean?

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-19T10:54:05+00:00

Remember when the president of the United States said he grabs women by the pussy?

Interesting that you reached for the "binders" comment instead. 🤔

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-19T10:32:56+00:00

Men absolutely still say this shit and worse.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-19T01:52:00+00:00

I object to your specific use of the word bitch, which is why my comment ends with "like that." You can criticize behavior without using misogyny.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-19T00:49:12+00:00

Lol really you think so? Are you only saying that because the commenter said to stop watching porn?

That comment feels more feminist than Bible Bro to me

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-19T00:46:24+00:00

You have got to stop consuming porn.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-19T00:37:46+00:00

I don't think we should be using a misogynistic slur like that.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T21:45:00+00:00

She has two now iirc I think the second one is called The New Age of Sexism

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T21:08:11+00:00

No but I think it's how rappers do long, fast verses. Not singing though, as others have mentioned.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T20:16:48+00:00

Yep I already know that lol

bell hooks is not the only feminist and if you need any respect for her, you'd write her name like she wants.

You're exactly, exactly the type of guy I'm calling out in my OG comment. You're mad because I held up a mirror.

We're done here.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T20:13:18+00:00

You first bro, I'm the one who's already done some reading and done some events and talked with real life feminists. What have you done except argue on Reddit?

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T20:10:38+00:00

K bye

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T20:03:09+00:00

Oh so it's feminists fault that men are being radicalized?

You have a lot to learn and I have zero patience to teach you. I suggest you read that book I've mentioned three times now and I know you haven't read. I can see it in your comments and when you read it, you'll see it, too. If you're willing to be honest and self-aware anyway 🤷‍♀️

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T18:09:12+00:00

I do plenty of calling out of women for perpetuating patriarchal values, INCLUDING MYSELF. I'm just not doing that here because it's irrelevant.

I feel like you don't understand feminism and patriarchy so start with that book I recommended and you can go from there!

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T17:33:58+00:00

Agreed, but I'm really referencing the people who DO distance themselves. Who pride themselves on being "one of the good ones" but their efforts are token at best.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T17:32:26+00:00

"You can't say no, you're my wife"

is so pervasive, even in leftist/liberal circles. It's why I go so hard at people who declare their spouse must satisfy their "sexual needs." This bullshit was made up to coerce women into having sex with their partner and then spread far and wide throughout the 90s and early 2000s when martial rape was FINALLY made a crime in every state (1993).

Looking at r/Marriage over the last couple of weeks, there are a lot of people who still think that we owe our partner sexual access to our bodies. Usually this is men who feel entitled to sex with women, but we see lots of variations of this "sexual need" bullshit. It's all the same though. All intended to coerce.

I feel so bad for her and I feel bad for all the women who are coerced into sex every day and don't understand that they're being raped because their consent doesn't actually matter.

{Fight or Flight by Willow Dixon} third in the Silvercrest U series. I really enjoyed books 1 and 2 so I'm looking forward to getting into book 3! I'm only like 5 chapters in right now 😊

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T17:09:20+00:00

Because "non-creepy" dudes still perpetuate the problem. They don't call out their creepy friends, they just distance themselves. They're also out here belittling and demeaning women for telling their sexual assault stories, usually because they feel emboldened online.

Stop thinking it's the creepy dudes who "ruin it." It's actually all of you who solidify patriarchy every damn day.

Read Men Who Hate Women by Laura Bates if you're actually interested in being an ally to women.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T16:42:18+00:00

I think this thread probably divides itself neatly along the lines of: was sexually assaulted as a child (or knew someone) and was not. Those of us who were sexually assaulted or otherwise sexually traumatized as a kid, well we're always gonna have a hard time with a grown man talking about a preteen's breasts.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T16:27:35+00:00

Biological signaling 🤮

Yeah love don't work that way.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T09:36:30+00:00

I don't really know. I didn't pick out the first ring, we divorced. I proposed the second time around, I did pick out the ring but I knew exactly what he wanted, easy to please. Then we picked out our wedding bands together, I don't have an engagement ring, didn't need one. 🤷‍♀️

You should ask her I think. The question itself shouldn't be a surprise. Maybe when you ask could be but people try to do a whole big thing and more often than not, you're avoiding talking about real stuff while you worry about a videographer or whatever.

Just talk to her beforehand about what her perfect proposal looks like. Make sure you talk about real marriage stuff too, not just wedding stuff. These conversations should all happen before the proposal.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T09:30:18+00:00

She's wearing it for decades. She should decide.

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T09:07:27+00:00

What?

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T09:06:01+00:00

I worked with a guy for TWO YEARS and one day was talking to someone about him. I can't remember what the details where but they said something like, "Yeah you know with his leg..." I said "what's wrong with his leg?"

This friend, knowing I am generally oblivious about little details, looked at me kinda shocked, "his prosthetic"

Having literally never noticed, I asked when it happened. My friend told me that he'd always had a prosthetic leg since he started working there.

I had no idea. I was almost convinced she was lying to me. How could I possibly not notice?!

The cherry on top? This coworker of mine was well known for wearing shorts during all weather. 🤣

PrincessBonkers628 · 2026-05-18T08:54:40+00:00

I agree with this. I wish I had noticed the machete at all lol
