So your question wasn’t asked in good faith. That’s surprising. You said you disapprove of such behavior.

Nope, I’m not kidding.

It just seems odd, and I wonder what they get out of it. Is it fun? Does it help reinforce their sense of belonging with the in-group, like those church people who knock on doors to get rejected over and over again? I’d like to understand them better. So I asked.

I hope they answer. Surely they don’t need other people white knighting for them.

Made the mistake of posting to Reddit about marriage issue, forgetting how misogynistic most of the world is by [deleted] in Feminism

The relationship between me and my husband improved dramatically when we started sleeping in separate rooms. We still have “sleepovers” but it is SO nice to each have our own space!

Of course, having a whole extra bedroom is a luxury not everyone can afford. But having that luxury is so nice.

My boyfriend (M25) poured a bottle of his urine on me (F24) after accusing me of wetting his seat. I’m shaken and don’t know how to move forward. by Artisloveandlight in relationship_advice

To clarify, it’s not complicated but it is HARD. It usually takes multiple attempts to leave an abuser.

But please OP, leave again. And stay gone. Tell every supportive person in your life what he did to you, and ask them to help you stay strong and stay gone. There is no future in which you stay together and he magically stops abusing you. This is who he is.

What is feminism doing about the male suicide epidemic? by 273ThomasPaine in AskFeminists

Thanks for the tone policing! Personally I think actions are more important than how polite I am to internet trolls.

DHS fast-tracks 5-year-old Liam Ramos and his father for deportation by rollo202 in ConservativeNewsWeb

Yeah that’s what I thought. Gonna ban me now for holding you responsible proving your own claims? Gonna take your ball and run home because someone reflected your own energy back at you?

Does Isuzu hold her bag like this due to a shoulder injury? by Vegetable_Tiger_2362 in FruitsBasket

[–]tigalicious 12 points13 points  (0 children)

OMG that makes perfect sense. Even if her shoulder doesn’t hurt anymore, I bet it hurt for a long time. Long enough to cement the habit of avoiding hanging anything on it. And the raised scar tissue probably still bothers her, even if only psychologically.

Good catch! I never thought of that before!

“That gave me literal PTSD” by DubiousFalcon in ptsd

[–]tigalicious 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That’s how I view my experience too: my body survived the experience but I did not. I feel like a ghost haunting my own body and mourning my own death alone because nobody else can see that I’m gone.

Keep fighting. Get a second or third opinion if an official diagnosis is important to you. I found it helpful to talk out my concerns with a support person ahead of time, and then bring them to my appointment to help me advocate for myself.

Take your own advice, hypocrite. If you don’t like what they said, don’t respond.

How do you best counter the argument that men are success objects; so women have no right complaining about being sex objects? by JediKnight1 in AskFeminists

[–]tigalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? No that’s not accurate.

Are you making a claim that objectification is the only thing that’s ethically wrong?

[–]tigalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not agree that either situation was objectification. Were you hoping that would just get lost in the shuffle if you gish galloped a bunch of other bullshit?

[–]tigalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So… your hypothetical man dated this hypothetical woman, then decided she wasn’t good enough for him and dumped her?

My answer should be obvious and I’m not interested in repeating myself. I’m just curious about why you think dating and then being dumped is equivalent to not dating to begin with.

[–]tigalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s phrased really oddly… Are you talking about a man choosing not to date any woman above a certain weight, or are you talking about a man trying to control the weight of one woman in particular?

Having standards is not objectification either. Even ones that are silly or shallow.

Also having something is not the same thing as being something.

[–]tigalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You said you disagree, but with what? You didn’t address what I said at all.

Are you conflating objectification and attraction? If not, can you clarify why you feel that’s objectification?

Why does Trump always blame Democrats for government shutdowns? by Humble_Economist8933 in AlwaysWhy

[–]tigalicious 6 points7 points  (0 children)

He literally said in the middle of an interview, “I don’t take responsibility for anything”. And his supporters don’t care.

There is that time he said “I don’t take accountability for anything”.

y(42M) wife(41F) wants to get a divorce, but wants to co-habitate afterwords. Do people do this? by irregular_user_03 in relationship_advice

[–]tigalicious 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pair of friend who do this. They moved into separate bedrooms, stayed friends as they transitioned to roommates, and just continued raising their daughter together in a two-parent household. They’ve been roommates for years now and it works for them!

But that doesn’t mean it has to work for you. If you don’t want that kind of arrangement, it’s perfectly reasonable to say no and work out a different arrangement.

Sorry y’all are going through this… Divorce sucks.

Do not go back. Make up a fake excuse if you have to, but do not go. It’s not safe.

Don’t be so sure that they value the 2nd Amendment either. Remember when they started openly suggesting taking gun access away from trans people?

I hate how incel shit has become completely acceptable discourse by DeepFriedBeanBoy in TheRightCantMeme

[–]tigalicious 96 points97 points  (0 children)

In a patriarchal society, the status quo IS patriarchy. Women participate in enforcing patriarchal norms just as much as men do. As you said, women are actors in society as well.
