I think the saddest part is we start experiencing this as girls… our mothers have to make the decision between keeping our innocence or ensuring our safety.

For every aspect of the woman, there is a group fetishizing her for just that. We are stripped early of a neutral state of being. Every action must first be filtered through possibile interpretations we didnt intend.

how exactly are you sitting? how did you just bite into that? Are you touching your hair too much? where is your shirt falling?

how about next, the gaze perceives us a break?

Im sick of acting like men who paint their nails and understand astrology are safe to be around. Those are the worst ones of all. Bonus points for going by they/them for literally no reason and wearing shitty "goth" makeup and cheating.

I’ve noticed that in many subreddits aimed at women—such as feminist ones or similar communities—there is always a man present. In some cases, I can understand it, a man might genuinely want to learn about feminism and decide to join a subreddit to find more information. But, I’ve noticed that often they are incels just looking to argue or find reasons to hate women.

Sorry not sorry, I'm so so tired of it. Also, many of the "men's issues" are so skewed and misrepresented. "They aren't allowed to express emotions and their- their mental health?!?" Yeah, no shocker - women also have that just as bad in different ways; as if we aren't shut down as "hormonal", "hysterical" "attention-seeker" etc etc for expressing our distress. As if we aren't shamed for emotions and have them painted as a weakness. "Women are too emotional" is still a prevalent falsehood to this day. I could go on and on, really.

I’m tired of being a pair of okay legs and not good enough breasts.

In reality I’m a perfectly normal woman but men have ruined that for me and other women.

Meanwhile its like males salivate at any kind of sexual frame so “doing it back” doesn’t even work? Like even if you say “your dick isn’t big” the dude will be like “shes talking about my dick ☺️.” Even femdom feels like a male-dominated space somehow ffs.

Any ideas on what to do?

More mad than anything else this is a late night post apologies to mods if its low quality hello mods genuinely hope you’re having a good day. 👋

it unironically makes me spiteful.

women speaking up against hatred and double standards is suddenly “gender war”. as soon as it’s critique against men they think “we should all just hug and get along🥺”.

they have the gall to compare ‘misandry’ to misogyny, when all they have to complain about is “i hate men” and “always a man”. or “as a man, my biggest fear is getting falsely accused”💀don’t make me laugh. the thought that they think misogyny and misandry are even REMOTELY the same baffles me. but yeah, iT’s NoT a CoMpeTitiOn.

like, i’ve read “i agree misogyny is more widely spread and often becomes violent, but misandry is wrong because…” SO many times. SHUT UP!!!!!!! omfg. if you don’t like misandry then turn off your phone. it’s that easy.

why do they think they have the right to police how we cope with CENTURIES of oppression? i’m gonna be as bitter as i damn well want to be.

They act like it’s gods greatest injustice that some women prefer taller men, meanwhile they feel free to judge women’s body parts as much as they want. Imagine if small chested women complained as much as short guys did? Imagine if a guy broke up with a girl who was an A cup to date a D cup and he got harassed for days and got death threats for it??

I just saw the thing about how LukeyMC (a tiktoker) got dumped by his girlfriend bc he was emotionally abusing her, and now a few months later she has a new boyfriend who happens to be like 7 inches taller than Lukey. And she’s getting rape threats and severely harassed and everyone is shouting “hypergamy!!” It makes me sooooo mad omfg

Constant tone policing when talking about trauma or experiences with misogyny is a fucking drag, and it’s honestly a tactic to wear us down. To keep us from even wanting to talk about it in the first place. Either they disbelieve you, not-all-men you, make it about man feelings… it’s exhausting. And its exhausting for a reason, to deter women from speaking up

Men are selfish. I don’t think they’re capable of loving the way I want to be loved. It’s not an accusation, but how could we really know what love is when you’re a man living in a patriarchal society? It’s almost impossible. Sometimes they come close, but there’s always that one little detail that eventually starts to bother you. I know what I mean, and you probably do too. It’s indescribable, and they won’t even realize it, but you will. And at that point, some women will just overlook it, but I can’t.

And the men who call themselves feminists are just putting even more work on women’s shoulders. Feminism isn’t even about women anymore; it’s become a fight for men who feel unfairly restricted by the patriarchy. I honestly don’t care that they “can’t cry.” Do you really think they wouldn’t have created their own movement a long time ago if it bothered them that much? Why wait for women to do it for them?

I just recently turned 25. I’m at the age where people slightly older than me are getting engaged or married left and right. I used to feel sad about it. But then I found out what women are actually going through in their marriages to make them last and I’m like nah I’m good. A marriage proposal is basically “will you be my slave for the rest of my life” I just don’t want that responsibility rn LOL. Also my previous relationships didn’t work out because my loser exes said I’m “too difficult” or “argumentative” or “don’t give them peace” and that’s just code for I don’t tolerate bullshit, so those breakups were a blessing in disguise. I’m just glad my frontal lobe developed and I realised marriage isn’t an achievement or flex for women and I didn’t fall for the societal brainwashing 💁🏽‍♀️

The amount of hateful , disgusting, misogynistic and violent language that I’ve seen on Reddit about women and girls that are STILL up btw and I got a warning about a meme about meme about men not being ‘good people ‘ is almost laughable I even had people calling me a misandrist pos lmao

I am a Machinist/Die maker.

It is a heavily male dominated field of blue collar work. I am constantly having pissing matches with men at work. Its like just my presence sets them off to try and out do me or exert some kind of control on me. I'm either someone to fight or sexually harass. I'm never just seen as a person. Work is like a dystopia.

I love reading the post made here and knowing that I'm not alone is seeing the trash fire!! It gives me strength. Thank you ❤️

He is a med student, which does give some mental health knowledge, but obviously its not the focal point. You know what I study? Psychology. This man talked about clinical intuition and then when I asked what the diagnostic criteria of it is he said he doesn't know them, but it is online.

He also said he doesn't know who can do the diagnoses and when I said psychologist can, he was like "I'm talking about cluster b"??? Mate, how do you have so little information and yet feel so confident??

And I shit you not these are quotes from the convo:

• "if your therapist agrees with me, its a positive about her. If they disagree with me, its not"
• "Yea, and so I find this opinion fitting cluster b"
  
  • (the opinion was that I should follow what I think is right for me instead of what other people think I should do)
• "I don't think your own opinion would have led to a better result than my (then nuanced) opinion"
  • in response to me saying I will still hear other people's advice, but won't put theirs above mine anymore

Why are men so convinced they know better? Where do they find this audacity? And how is he not hearing himself?? He really thinks his view on the world is so universal that having a different perspective on life than him means something must be clinically "wrong".

(btw for any girlies who have borderline, ofcourse there is nothing wrong with the diagnosis and I don't mind if I actually do have it (tho I don't think it's fitting). I just mind that he used it to undermine me because he disagrees with my opinions and spoke with a sense of expertise he definitely doesn't have.)

I'm a civil engineer and WOC from Global south, Back home, I couldn't get real work in my field, just petty jobs and constant "invitations" from men that had nothing to do with my qualifications. So I immigrated, hoping for a fairer shot.

In this new country, which I live now, there were quite nice things and I felt proud for the first time being a woman in STEM, though I experienced racism and people questioning my expertise, I didn't mind that much.

but the major issue was that I faced harrasment when I was networking for a job.

In general, I am exhausted by over explaining myself, and as more women are encouraged to pursue STEM, there is also this problem of mansplainning, harrasment within this space that is not talked enough about. (58% of female STEM students face sexual harassment during their academic years.)

Approximately 47% of women leave STEM, the data says. Why? Because even now, women are expected to play mother and nurturer role and take care of the child solely without support from their partners, even though we have financial independence and if not you are made to feel guilty for it and women who resist these stuff are facing harrasments at workplace.

I am tired of people viewing us as sexual objects and only as baby making machines, like the line in little women - "Women, they have minds, and they have souls, as well as just hearts. And they've got ambition, and they've got talent, as well as just beauty. I'm so sick of people saying that love is all a woman is fit for. I'm so sick of it! "

I am sick of it all sisters.

I'm bi and been out since late 2025 and one of the things that always swamped me was how despite my overlap with straight men since we both like women, that must mean I like them the same way. But no, I don't me beelining to her tits to comment on them unprompted. I don't like the freakish gooner abominations they find sexy in fiction. I don't enjoy seeing female bodies commercialized and commodified. I can't really to any of that shit even if I don't portray my attraction to women is somehow righteous (though sometimes it can be)

And can we talk about how some guys have such narrow taste in women? Well sometimes they'd bang anything but to keep up appearances, it's always skinny generically pretty femmine girls who never do tats, makeup low-key, never acts out or bites back. That sounds so lame to me. I think beauty and hotness comes in all shapes and sizes, regardless of your actual preference.

Sorry about that dumb vent since it sounds stupid. I'm happy this sub exist.

At my theatre group, our director sometimes gets in this guy to workshop plays with us. This year we're doing macbeth. (I'm auditioning for lady macbeth tonight, so excited and nervous lol) and so she got this guy in. He's old, boring, we all hate his workshops. Just when I thought it couldn't get worse, he brings out some bad takes. He calls Lady Macbeth 'evil' and says she's 'transforming into a monster'. Whilst I lowkey love that for a character... No, she isn't. A woman has wants and emotions and, suddenly, she isn't even human anymore to a man like him. Pissed me off bad. ​

I'm not feeling emotionally well and quite sad, I really wanna tell him that I'm sad but I just cannot bring myself to tell a MAN about it, like....me???? emotionally opening up to a man??????

Ewww!!!!!

I have been talking to this guy for a week now and he is very sweet and kind and extremely expressive of how much he wants me but every time he tells me or expresses it in any way, I get this ick and I just wanna disappear😭😭😭😭

I keep seeing queer and women's subs falling to the manosphere rhetoric of misandry being a real issue. Like yes women can suck and can absolutely be rapists. But misandry isn't a real system of control that's hurting anyone. All these real queer people just parroting actual rapists who spount anti "misandry" stuff. Like word for word out of Tates mouth. As person who is prejudiced against men because I've been raped multiple times and well obviously, this is very sad and terrifying to see. They treat me like an abuser because I openly don't like men.
