100%. They can offer support to women, but that's it. Keep your opinion out of it.

Porn. Either they get it or they don't. I'm not wasting breath explaining why the packaging and selling of women being raped is unethical.

I never have and why would I? so I can be gaslit? so I can be told my problems aren't real and don't exist? so some arrogant manlet who will never have a period or give birth in his entire life try to explain my own body functions to me? so I can be lied to and told "not all men?" or worse given a bunch of whataboutery?

No. No thank you.

My list is the same but includes "feminism. " They don't understand it. Neither do pickmeishas. It requires book reading...not Twitter.

Edited to include the Me Too movement anything related to sexual harassment.

Who are men to say a woman can have no body hair at all, while his chest and back are full of it? And then judging us for the very little and light hair we have at our forearms.

Screw them and their hypocrisy.

Yep, yep, yep. One of my closest friends is a gay male and while it does afford us a dynamic it wouldn't if he were straight, he's still a guy and all of the above and a few other topics are ones I have told him flat out I am not interested in hearing his opinion on or listening to him "debate" or "play devil's advocate" on.

Just yesterday we skirted into such a subject, branched off from another, in regards to a misguided pickme friend who works against her own / other women's interests. He shrugged with a "It's not my place to judge!"

I said, "No, it isn't, but not for the reason you're implying. It isn't your place because this has no impact on your life and never will, so your opinion means nothing to me on this matter."

He got huffy and did the "well but but but ALL opinions matter!" song and dance. Then I started giving some o p i n i o n s about issues that only effect men in general and issues that only effect gay men, and then he admitted he is a jackass.

7)Literally any choice I make.

Exactly. Sit down and shut up when women are talking. :)

There have been several posts on Am I the Asshole lately from men pressuring their female partners into breastfeeding. I have breastfed and formula fed ( I just did whatever works at that moment), and I try not to talk too much about it because people lose their minds about this stuff.

It is bad enough when women shame a mom who can’t breastfeed, but a man? Or the reversal, when a man shames a woman for breastfeeding.

Y’all remember that asshat blogger Onisom, or something like that? He always dated barely legal, and abused the shit out of his girlfriend on YouTube.

He went on some big rant about what he doesn’t get why women don’t breastfeed. As though he had any fucking clue.

I talk about abortion with my sex partners. That's about it. I want to to be very clear that ultimately I'll do whatever the fuck I want.

I'll also entertain body hair preferences, if I'm in the mood, that aren't creepy or uncomfortable.

lunan4 · 2020-12-08T11:27:59+00:00

I'll start doing this from now on. I've never minded defending the right to make our own decisions. But lately I've met someone who talks so lightly about abortion. It exhasperates me having to explain him that it's not an easy procedure and it entails lots of physical and psychological risks. But next time I'm sending him this picture.

💯%, Men’s opinions on these matters are absolutely meaningless to me. As they should be.

2020-12-09T15:04:51+00:00

Yep especially female body hair. I’m not going to pain myself just so I can look prepubescent for something that in no way contributes to your pleasure. If anything it’s women that should be the picky ones, men are 99% guaranteed to cum, it’s the opposite for women

MRgoudaonionspickles · 2020-12-08T14:11:29+00:00

Umm you should've feel the need to debate these choices with anyone, male OR female. It's your body, and your choice.

Might I add

When it’s the right time to have sex (none of his damn business — did he just propose to you? Oh he didn’t? You don’t owe him shit)

When it’s the right time to get engaged (if you have to ask, and you feel like it’s been too long, he isn’t the right one)

Who pays for dates

Who plans the dates

What they did wrong (unless you like being gaslit)
