A few months ago, there was a post on the antifeminist sub. The post was a screenshot from an incel website that was posted on the Nothowgirlswork sub. There was a comment from nothowgirlswork which roasted the incel post.
The incel said he felt anxiety when he walked on the streets and saw women. The comment from nothowgirlswork was ridiculing him for feeling fear of women. He didn't say anything misogynistic. There are some incels (on incel websites) who condone horrible things like raping women. This post was not like that.
It made me think that society expects men to be fearless and brave. Men are human and fear is a normal emotion that everyone has. It's normal to feel anxiety around women, if the man has been traumatized in the past. Maybe the incel was traumatized by a woman in the past. People shouldn't judge someone without knowing them.
The truth is women can be just as dangerous as men. Society has to stop thinking women are not as dangerous.
If a woman said she felt anxiety around men, redditors would be supporting her. They would say men are rapists and she should be scared of them. She would get all the empathy and sympathy. Reddit shows what people think secretly. Many people in society have this double standard too.
The average women is less dangerous than the average man when you take weapons and proxy violence out of the picture
How convenient that you do, as well.
90% of homicide and 80% of violent crime.
Even though women have weapons too, they're not statistically as dangerous.
I'm not talking about physical differences. I'm talking statistical differences.
As such that affects perception.
You and I might both know that we're not dangers but until all the other men do better we're statistically and perceptually in the higher risk category.
Most men do better. We would do well to avoid generalizing. That is part of the problem here.
You gonna give stats or just sling around strawmen?
Because you're making big claims with 0 evidence.
lmfao
So... you don't have any proof? Nothing? No sources?? Entirely feels?
Cause if you had proof I'm sure you woulda slung it around. Your fragile ego can't handle being wrong.

So in 7 years women finally got us beat on something other than prostitution: Embezzlement.
Grow the fuck up and own that we have a long way to go as a gender. Acknowledging that there is a problem doesn't make you less worthy of a person. Men cause more violence. Men are more dangerous.
That doesn't mean you are. That doesn't mean I am.
That does mean that there is a problem though: And we need to be the solution.
You don't fix something by shifting blame.
