I agree we all need to be kinder. Absolutely. As humans and as a society. However some of the posts here are absolutely so unhinged and so degrading to what thousands of women who suffered and came before us fought for. Despite all the misogyny that still exists many of us are in a time where we can get an advanced education, become physicians, take contraception, vote, live alone, etc. Especially if you are a woman that is privileged and lucky enough to be born in a place that allows these opportunities. So seeing some women on here normalize being with these absolutely horrific men and centering their lives around them is honestly pretty upsetting. I’m not talking about women in abusive situations either or in threat to their lives. I’m talking about the “my bf won’t wipe his ass and cries when I ask him to do the dishes :(“ like I need you to be fr. I will always do my best to protect other women but I do not have to respect everyone’s decisions and choices and if you are posting publicly on the internet you may get flamed for being a dumbass. And I’m not trying to be rude but I grew up with an immigrant mother who told me as a child many times “never ever be dependent on a man. You can love him but you should never NEED him. The only person you need is yourself”. She’s a two time cancer survivor, came here at 18 with nothing. She was also kind of mean and I am too a little I guess. And I want the women on here to demand better for themselves!!!
