I couldn’t believe my eyes seeing this advice to teach young boys to hit girls so as to restore the boys’ self esteem and pride.
This is the kind of toxic belief that shouldn’t be allowed to proliferate here and yet is embraced with open arms by other users.
That boys can only regain their pride and self esteem by hitting girls leads directly to more violence against women and girls.
Fucking finally.
Well THAT’S pretty fuckin toxic. Yikes.
As someone who was bullied a lot, I frequently got told fighting back (against the boys at my all boys school) would restore my pride. I was never told “go find a girl to hit when she’s mean to you, it’ll restore your pride.”
Take that for what it’s worth.
Byeeeeeee.
Spend some energy calling out sexist comments instead of picking apart my wording on something that is rightfully outrageous.
It’s telling that you’d rather scold me over this issue than pushing back on the actual sexist comment.
You have no clue what I do or don’t comment about. I saw this thread in my feed. I didn’t see the other one. I call out sexist comments both online and in my daily life on the regular.
Congratulations on fabricating a reality to suit your own needs.
