  • I agree with this article, but raising a son I think there’s also something to be said for raising a boy in an environment that tells him he’s dangerous, a potential rapist, an abuser, and blames him for all the ills men have committed on women through history. I can see how that can make a boy become resentful and shoot to the opposite.

    Men are also hyper aware of how they’re seen and we have to cross the street to not be perceived as following someone or being a creep. We have to change subway cars when we’re the only one there with women. Or we have to constantly reassure people we’re not pro rape or anti women. It gets very tiring having to prove to strangers every day that you’re not a wild animal who is gonna kill you. Being a big guy, it sucks being looked at as a threat 24/7.



  • Politics is having differences of opinions on how to go about fixing your country. Trump isn’t politics, he’s a racist, fascist bigot. If you guys want politics you can come together and we can get rid of this threat to democracy together, so we can get back to politics. But a guy saying my race is garbage, sub human and deserves to be exterminated is not politics, it’s bigotry.
