Question for women on this sub

Yes. Only once finding out I'm Afab.

They always assume I'm Amab (I wish lol) first, as usually it's when I'm sharing my story being SA'ed by a Woman, they assume I must be a "fragile male blaming women". (Even got told I must've wanted it because they thought I was Amab.)

Then when they find out I'm Afab, they short circut because they can't fathom a woman would SA her daughter, and then they screech about how she was probably influenced by a man, how it's somehow mens' fault, and how I'm a pick me and lying about being SA'ed.

Funny how I've been supported by men and only women have ever relentlessly bullied me for my trauma. The exact opposite of what feminism claims. Funny how that works.

I haven't directly been called a 'pick me' yet but I've had women suggest that I'm trying to impress men before, or that I "want men to come to my defense" apparently. And I've had women be pretty dismissive when I brought actual issues up.

It's probably a defensive gesture on their part, at least that's what I assume. When misandry happens in discussions you're kind of expected to join in yourself, at least when men aren't around, it's kind of a bonding activity for some people for some reason. So when you're one of the odd few that speaks out against it they seem to become a little surprised and then irritated, they're not used to having their views challenged and seeing another woman defend men or refuse to be sexist about them is probably a little shocking.. for some more feminist-leaning women it seems like they think you're "betraying the sisterhood" or whatever. Basically the "us Vs them" mentality. Some of them seem to live in this feminine bubble where only women ever face problems, and men create them so they're a group to be hated on, they're "useless" - yet simultaneously they need men as romantic partners or to kill the spider in the room when it's convenient.

No, no one has. But if they did, I wouldn't give a fuck. I have two sons.

"Pick me" is a derogatory term used against straight women by non hetero women. It's also used to shame bi women who like men.

You never hear a lesbian calling a lesbian and Pick Me when she does even more outrageous things to get a woman's attention.

Yea, just a few days ago, ironically, one of the people who called me a pick me was a man, lol
