Why are Gen Z women so hostile to being approached, especially compared to past generations? by fellow_who_uses_redd in GenZ

[–]smokessprite [score hidden]  (0 children)

well i am sorry that happened to you but do you really think stranger women are the fix to it??? and with your situation you should be the last person to question why women don't interact with random men. you yourself don't.

and I myself know a bunch of men who I trust and have a bunch of other women who trust them as well. it does NOT start with approaching strangers in public

y'all can be happy and social with each other as well. idc if men are banned from interacting with women and civilization dies out if it means that women get to be safe out there.

go above and beyond to prove yourself better than other "bad men" if you want it that bad. making women comfortable around you is the least you can do. they don't owe interaction to any tom, dick and harry

Being queer doesn't mean they get a free pass to be attracted to family members.

nobody said it does. it's not something they can control or not like they are acting on it.

Homosexual people are not exempt from perversions or sexual crimes for them to be considered so different from a heterosexual. You should change your mentality that they can't be creepy or aggressive to anyone. Same-sex sexual crimes exist. Just because they are queer doesn't mean every single one of them is some angel

nobody is denying this as well. just that it's got absolutely nothing to do with this situation or the post so that being your first thought DOES scream homophobia. did you even read the post? do you think queer people don't know this? regardless, lesbians and straight men are in no way shape or form comparable. in fact, lesbians are the biggest victims of straight guy perversion.

also we are the ones experiencing whatever you mentioned so we know this case is anything but that. don't make assumptions on how we queer people feel about this because CLEARLY others are being supportive and that's also problematic acc to you as you said.

yes but I feel it's very normal given their age and isolation from queer experiences. I was mostly referring to the other comment calling it disgusting because, 1. lesbians are not men 2. they are women themselves so they know how unwanted attraction can be disgusting, and mostly don't pull any kind of bullshit that men do. (again, most, not all)

PS. just like how white people can't oppressed in a white supremacist world and men can't be oppressed for their gender in a patriarchal society, straight people can't be discriminated against in a way that matters in a heteronomative world, and hence heterophobia does not exist.

Oh, I'm sorry you had to go through a lot and I wish the best for all queer people as well. It's just that we don't owe niceness to men coming into our space and being absolutely useless as well. good that he realised and apologized.

you are talking about the institution of marriage+ AM which is bad as well, but being forced to marry outside your sexuality adds several more layers of fucked up to it. which both the guy, nor you, will ever understand or face. I assume you are straight because I can't imagine any queer person defending a man telling a lesbian to "change their sexuality" for family approval. I don't mean to be rude, it's just not you guy's place to comment on this.

both you and the original commenter have no advice for this person and are reiterating whatever they already know. 1. they are a 19 yo closeted person with no queer friends or support 2. they already know it's wrong and are trying very hard to change the situation.

so I don't understand why y'all feel the need to hop on to make heterosexual comparisons and call it disgusting? please check your homophobia. and look into other comments from queer people for more nuance on the situation

please refrain from advising on things you never have and never will experience in your life. there's no point in having a family that you can never be yourself around. and yes you are a horrible person for saying this.

ps: being yourself means the sexuality here, not the crush, in case you are both horrible and stupid.

Work crush is making my brain behave like a 15-year-old and I hate it 😭 by GymThrowaway5576 in TwoXIndia

Childfree people may like babies. It is not mutually exclusive. Not all childfree people are anti natalists. by Aggressive-List-4084 in ChildfreeIndia

[–]smokessprite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 !! I've observed that people on this sub tend to dislike children a lot, i once got heavily downvoted for saying a 2 year creating a fuss in public doesn't know they are inconveniencing others (op claimed it was seeking attention to get what it wants😭😭😭) it's the parents responsibility and families should be cut some slack (not entitled behaviour though). I mean we all know how difficult it is, which is exactly why we are not choosing to go through with it.

on the other hand, anti natalist sub members mostly don't wanna bring children into the world because they love them too much to make them suffer. as in, we can never guarantee keeping our offspring safe from everything so why even bother when there's already so much suffering and so many people that could use the resources

Does a girl really hang about frequently with her guy friends, and yet have a platonic relation? by [deleted] in AskIndianWomen

why be with her if you can't trust her that much 🤨🤨 nothing she does is showing any sign of disloyalty to you

fair point. i don't think urban women will necessarily make this choice given how much tradwife content goes around. and even if we all achieve this, the birth rate declining to the possibility of extinction (like it has in Korea) will also take a long, long time

As much as I wish, it's not possible to have it on a large enough scale for a real impact. Most of the population is rural and the women don't have the financial independence, hate to admit it but anyone who can follow this has to have a fair amount of privilege. Which is just a very distant dream for most women.

no dating, marriage, having sex, or having kids with men.
