Crosspost "Can we address how depressing it is?" from /r/fourthwavewomen:

Knowing most men you interact with watch porn. Probably choke their wives. Probably fetishizes lesbians. Probably make school/workplace unsafe for women. Have probably cat called. Have likley shared nudes with their friends or vice versa. Have definitely gaslit a woman at some point after being called out for being sexist.

It's leaked into me hating public figures too. My partner might say "Oh Markiplier is so wholeseome!" and I'll sit there feeling bitter about it, knowing he's 100% done something. I feel kind of guilty about it because I AM a man hater and I am depressed about it. I want to give them the benefit of the doubt but I've my life was ruined as a child because of the actions of men. I'm so fucking bitter. I'm trying to redirect my anger to be pro woman and less anti man but it's hard. I hate knowing so much. Knowing about the porn industry has been a life ruiner for sure, I feel like such a stick in the mud at times.
