Wait, what’s wrong with masturbation? Controlling an individual’s sexuality under the premise of needing “discipline” is literally one of those things that oppressive societies and governments do to control men, separate them from autonomy of their bodies, and eventually get them to use their bodies for things like going to war.

I hope for a day when we can all have bodily autonomy and honesty at the same time and no one has to fear being trapped with no legal or social support! Good luck! As a woman who has asked men out, I definitely see many ways that women often expect men to handle things without thinking about what it would be like to handle those things themselves.

What country are you in? Here in the United States, with the overturn of Roe v. Wade, I think a lot of of women (and probably some trans men) feel like they would like to have more control over their own body and reproduction rights. The courts and legislatures that make those decisions are actually largely controlled by men. A lot of other countries also control women’s decisions and reproductive rights in these areas. I think perhaps you mean that women are the gender typically carrying and bi…

Thank you for such a thoughtful and measured response. I was a little worried about what kind of replies I might get by asking, and I appreciate yours.

Thanks! That makes more sense, but I guess I still don’t understand what the problem is if there are people who would rather be single and sexless than forcing themselves to have sex they don’t want.

Im confused by the comments here. What does women not having sex have anything to do with being entitled to someone’s body? I read this headline as implying that a quarter of American women haven’t had sex because they don’t care to. And, if they’re not having sex, they’re certainly not putting any sexual demands on someone else.

This might not be the situation you’re talking about , but sometimes people want to wear things that are comfy or make them feel good to wear, and the goal is not so much to show off or attract attention from someone else. [edit: rather, the goal is just to wear and do something that the person likes rather than something they hope other people like]. They might know how others could perceive them, but it might seem better to go out anyway than to let the fear or discomfort keep them stuck at ho…

It seems like you’re somehow fixated on stereotypes said by lots of other women (and men) when what really matters is how you and your girlfriend feel together. You also seem to have a lot of self worth unnecessarily tied up in that. I hope this is something you can talk through with your girlfriend, but also hope you can find some support or therapy to help you reconnect with your own worthiness. If you don’t feel worthy yourself, it will be hard for you to believe she could ever feel good abou…

How could it happen? The political powers that have been inching toward it for decades finally got the right pieces in the right places. And, they don’t care about public health or bodily autonomy for either women or men. It’s not about rights, it’s about power and how some people think things “should” be for everyone else. “Shoulds” are just as dangerous for men as for women.

Since its normal for companies to be so extractive, I do also wonder if they’re just doing it because they can, regardless of gender? I think companies view everyone as subhuman. I understand you’re really suffering, but I wonder if your colleagues just SEEM to be doing all right or if they really aren’t but are also saving their breakdowns for when they get home? Do you have a many work friends that you can talk to to understand how everyone is handling this or find someone sympathetic? If you …

I get the frustration in this title, but I don’t think this is a thing that “feminists” demand. I think this is a thing that many women expect (whether they are feminists or not), which may make it harder for them to meet men that could be really compatible with them in other ways. Claiming that demanding a man should be 6 feet tall is part of feminism is inaccurate, and I’m not sure why someone would say “feminists” when it’s not a feminism thing.

It is instinctual to eat, but if you ate someone else’s food and they didn’t want to share, is that ok? Even for non-instinctual activities, if there is something you want to do and your friends don’t want to, is that wrong? Are your friends unfairly depriving you of an activity? Would it be selfish of you to goad them into going bowling with you when they didn’t feel like it at all? I suppose it could be different if it was a one-time thing vs if you were that guy who was always forcing the fri…

My sense is that it’s good for anyone to be open to understanding others’ experiences and recognizing where they may have been taking something for granted. That’s just being open-minded and considerate and maybe even responsible… however if he’s taking what he sees/reads on the internet about other women’s experiences and making assumptions about you and what you want (or don’t want) without giving you a chance to tell him what makes you happy, then this sounds like more of a communication issu…

… you mean like when women are portrayed as being “demanding”, “emotional” or “slutty”? I think it’s also important here to separate the concept of “ideal woman” (or “ideal man”) from the concept of women or men. A lot of times, when individual people don’t match up to an ideal, those people get ignored or not even considered as women (or men)

Are you asking about whether “male privilege” might also sometimes be something that harms individual men? My thoughts on this are probably a little unconventional, so please don’t assume I’m speaking for anyone aside from myself: A lot of what “privilege” really does at the end of the day is allow people with “privilege” (and there are many different kinds of privileges) to shield or protect themselves from difficulties that other kinds of people face. It’s tricky to point out because often peo…

I think a lot of people easily miss the difference between narratives/concepts vs individual people. Things which benefit an overall narrative or societal “norm” are actually often damaging to individual people if every different and unique person is expected to conform to an expected norm. For example, it’s an expected gender norm (and not without statistics) that men are typically bigger and stronger than women (and more often in leadership positions) and that men are “masculine” whereas women…

My point is that sacredness and things protected by the law may often be similar, but are not exactly the same thing, and that construing them as the same thing can be dangerous. I am not arguing that they are not similar, and I’m not saying that what you’re saying is invalid. You’re just talking about something else and something different. To your last comment, I used to think that creating a law about something might raise its value or importance in the eyes of others, but I now know better. …

They are similar concepts, but they are not the same thing. They are not identical. We often create human laws around things that we believe to be in the common good (even if in reality that means the “majority good” or “good for those in power”) at the time. Similar concepts, but not identical. It is not the laws around murder and abortion that makes life sacred. There could just as easily be laws enshrining respect for each person to have autonomy and get the healthcare they for their body and…

… I’m sure I don’t need to remind us that anime is not real, right? But if we were talking about a real thing: The sacred place would be sacred even without laws. If there is a law against accessing a sacred place and then people are punished according to the law, then that happens because of the law, right? But the place would have been sacred with or without the law.

Laws don’t make sacred, but they do make things punishable. Whenever one thing is being elevated, it’s always important to look around at the cost that is being paid for it, and who is being expected to pay that cost.

Are you kidding? So many women are told that pregnancies and the consequences of it are their fault because they should just “keep your legs closed” - as if men don’t know any better and can’t be expected to also take responsibility. That kind of narrative is harmful for both men and women. I’m assuming that this subreddit is extremely sensitive to the things that “society” often tells men, but please understand that you might not also be familiar with the things “society” tells women if you are…

Yes, I personally wish the OP had picked a more sensitive title. Yes, it seems a lot of people are reacting to the title without having read the actual content of the OPs story. Seems pretty simple. Sounds like to agree at least with the title part. I’m not sure what hill you want to kill me on here, cuz there’s no reason to die. I’m thinking maybe this is your hill.

I do understand that it’s damaging. That’s why I replied to the OP saying that it’s worth remembering that there ARE men who actually have been victimized. And this kind of title is probably about as destructive as the stuff I see in this subreddit every day about how terrible women are. Which is why I’m also replying here encouraging people to read the OPs story and not just the title.

Yes, that makes sense, and is why I’m focusing on the story along with the title, instead of just the title itself.

No problem, thank you for taking the time to read and consider what was being said, both by me and the OP. I really appreciate that. I find it difficult and unfortunate when there are topics like this that where there is naturally a lot of hurt and fear all around. It’s important to understand, but the reactions make it hard to talk about meaningfully. Thank you for sharing some of your context. I do understand with the kinds of frightening things that you hear from people, it must be scary to s…

I agree with you that this kind of stuff is terribly destructive. That’s why I keep returning to the particular content of the OP’s story rather than all those women you’ve heard of who are not in the story or writing the story. The title is problematic. The story is pretty clear.

You seem to be using your own brand of logic as an excuse for jumping to extreme conclusions. I do wish there was more gender-inclusive language for recognizing that victims of any gender can be unfairly silenced.

How did you get to that conclusion from the post? [edit: adding the following to avoid being that person who just asks annoying questions] That’s not exactly what the title says either. I don’t like the fact that the title of the post is clearly inconsiderate of men who actually have been falsely accused of rape and who are NOT like the person in the OP’s story. That part of it saddens me, and I feel bad for the men who actually have been falsely accused because i imagine reading a title like th…

... I read the post and it’s about a particular story from the OP’s experience that she hopes will help others. In the story shared, there is a person who seems completely unable to understand reasonable boundaries, and it brings up the question of whether people like the one in the story can be trusted to correctly judge what counts as consent or not. Also ... assuming that men are lying is not what “feminist” is. That seems like an unhelpfully narrow definition.

Well... the quote doesn’t say anything about the LAW forcing a person to become a parent, but it does mention the ability of a person to legally force someone to become a parent against their will. I was thinking if a man impregnated a woman (which could definitely happen legally) in a place where it’s not legal to get an abortion, then that woman would end up becoming a parent even if they didn’t want to, unless other options like divorce or adoption could be agreed on. But if divorce or adopti…

... it kind of sounds like this title should be “Teach more people the value of consent so they can understand how nonconsensual infant circumcision is and stop it”? Shouldn’t boys have opportunities to learn and understand how to consent (or not) to what is happening to them or what they want to do with their bodies just as much as anyone else? I don’t think anyone should be deprived of the ability to learn about consent just because others are having things inflicted on them :(

I’m seeing a lot of good comments about over-investment and mindsets here. I’ll also add that I am a woman and I am also the type to put investment and energy into a date that doesn’t always get appreciated or returned. So, the way I deal with that is to not plan anything for a date that I wouldn’t be happy to just do myself anyway. Then no matter what, at least I am having a good time.

I understand you’re feeling very frustrated at not being included in that conversation, and it seems like maybe you don’t realize that the “can’t / can’t stand on its own” or “by its own merit” is the kind of language that has been shutting down underrepresented people for a long time. I used to think like this as well, but by now I’ve seen and heard enough to understand that a lot of times when people think they are talking about “merit”, there is a lot of unspoken systemic privilege packed in …

Yes, exactly! Those toxic ways of controlling and reinforcing how someone is “supposed” to be are harmful no matter who it’s being said to.

Maybe first find out if it’s an “excuse” or if there is something that should be understood first? A lot of these comments seem to be focused on ways of dominating a conversation without any mutual understanding, which is usually the problem in the first place.

... when you say feminism is women’s rights ... are you meaning that only in the sense of legal rights? Are you seeing feminism and men’s rights as things that cannot exist together? Because that’s what it sounds like, and I feel like this post is illustrating the one-sided-ness of the men’s rights sub. I’ve seen some very deep discussions around issues men face on menslib, and have not yet noticed that kind of depth on mensrights. Maybe you are mistakenly thinking that a discussion must be angr…

Yeah, that’s the sense I got from it, too.

I don’t think a fear has to be “rational” for someone to feel it and to have a preference. It sounds like you think it’s normal to be afraid, but you also think it’s not appropriate for someone to say truthfully what would make them feel less afraid. It’s kind of laughable to me that people often talk about fear as rational vs irrational. It’s an emotion. Of course it’s irrational. It comes from our lived experience and perceptions, not from a spreadsheet of statistically significant data report…

I didn’t get the sense that anyone thought the OP in the example was wrong for existing as a man and possibly being on the street behind a woman. I was reacting more to the lack of empathy in many of the comments here which seem to think that the woman who replied to the man’s question is wrong for existing and answering his question truthfully.

What about that fear seems irrational to you? Would you ever feel nervous about someone coming up behind you or following you for a long way on a dark night? The person is just answering a question from someone else. How do you think they should have answered?

I what I was observing as a lack of empathy was that I saw so many comments here seeming completely uninterested in understanding why a woman might feel safer if a man walked on the other side of the road as opposed to walking behind her for a long way or coming up quickly behind her. Especially since the OP in that example was specifically asking what people would rather have him do, and people answered him ... if commenters here are going to blame the responder for being “irrationally fearful”…

Wow, I’m seeing a lot of responses here that have zero empathy for others and zero willingness to understand others’ situations.

Really glad to hear this helps. I think looking for ways to take a broader perspective is a good exercise because traumatic situations like this can sometimes get people stuck in a particular way of feeling defensive. And even after the bad thing happens, if you stay “stuck” there, then the trauma still has you feeling as if you actually are still there, like a trap. So I think it’s good to sort of “exercise” and “stretch” your way of thinking and feeling to try to get out staying “stuck” there …

Have you ever heard things about women saying they “hate men”? It’s probably because a man did something terrible to them like this (but probably being manipulative or toxic in other ways). But not all men are bad. Also, not all women are bad, so you don’t need to be concerned about all women. But toxic people are bad for you. Do watch out for toxic and manipulative people, whether they are men or women, and protect yourself from them. That’s some toxic and manipulative stuff that happened to yo…

OP might be missing the idea that in the example, the word “females” is being applied to individual humans who probably want to exist and be recognized as individual humans, whereas the examples like “male gaze” etc, are used not for individuals but for describing concepts that can exist within a person or perspectives that a person (male or female) could have. Many women have also internalized aspects of a “male gaze” - it’s not a thing that only men have. An interesting exercise here could be …

Neither of those things should be considered ok. Plenty of people of both genders “get away with” saying terrible things to their partners, especially if their partners don’t realize that they deserve better or don’t complain about it to anyone. I’m thinking, even if the guy doesn’t realize that he’s being disrespected, maybe he also hasn’t realized that he deserves to be respected and not to be yelled at.
