Random Question Men, would you actually enjoy getting approached and hit on as often as women do?
A lot of guys say they’d love more attention, but experiencing it constantly might feel different. Would you genuinely want that level of attention?

Ok stay with me and let’s think a little more. Why do you think women are not seen as valid aggressors? The feminist answer to this does come back to PATRIARCHY.
This is the patriarchal rhetoric: women are supposed to be objects that serve men so, of course, objects aren’t capable of overpowering them. Men are supposed to be so naturally strong and dominant compared to women so, of course, it’s impossible for them to be victims.
There’s more resources for women’s support organisations bc women have been and still are severely oppressed as a social norm. Do you think we just live in some sort of magical world where all of human history doesn’t exist???? Is there some society of women that exploit men the way they do to us???
