It’s men who are oppressing you. Not women.

Speaking to the women being mean comment— I understand that when you’re questioning your beliefs and open up the floor to open discussion in a vulnerable way, mean comments can hurt, especially from women, when you’re trying to deprogram yourself from the things you’ve come to believe about them. I implore you to delve deeper into why women might react in this way.

For you, your biggest fears regarding women are probably rejection and confirmation of your worst insecurities. For women, their worst fears regarding men include violence, sexual assault, and murder. So when you look at it with that added context, it makes sense that women may be more reactionary towards men who have purposefully dehumanized them in the past.

You have to remember, we only just got the right to vote, have credit cards, control our reproductive organs, and become employed without being discriminated against within the past century. Only recently in the history of the world have we gotten this close to having the same rights men have had since the dawn of time. Red-pilled ideologies ultimately culminate anger towards women in a way that aims to reverse this progress by positioning women as beings that must submit to the authority and will of men or face consequences. Women are angry that their very existence as free beings is being questioned and threatened by red-pilled ideologies. It’s alarming and scary to witness your existence and right to self-determination be questioned in real time. We just got these rights, and we are not letting them go without a fight.

Now, does this context make it right for women to cut below the belt during what are supposed to be good-faith discussions? No, of course not. However, acknowledging the physical and systemic advantages that men tend to have over women makes it more understandable why women may be on the defensive when it comes to these conversations.

Now, nuance is critical to note here. I think that the most important thing when it comes to these discussions is to avoid making sweeping generalizations about any group of people. Within both men and women exists an infinite capability for a diverse range of ideas, thoughts, and beliefs regarding the world in general and the other gender. For every woman with the tendency to be mean and invalidating, there is a woman willing to listen, show kindness, and connect on a human level so that we can learn more about each other and bridge the gap of pain that has existed for centuries between us. Character is dependent on what is in your heart and mind, not what gender you are born into. We are all human beings at the end of the day, and making broad generalizations about half of the world’s population only serves to further hurt both men AND women. We have much more in common as human beings than we have differences as men and women.

I wish you well on your journey to self-discovery. Remember, we are all a part of the same team at the end of the day. Just human beings looking to glean some meaning, connection, and joy from this whole “life” thing (whatever that is).

TLDR: Patriarchy hurts both men and women. Women are mean to men in red-pilled discussions because we are tired of having our rights continually threatened by people entertaining this set of beliefs, not because we inherently are inherently malicious or hate normal men simply for existing. This is a real problem that needs to be addressed within feminist circles if we want to bridge the gap and make any progress. Broad generalizations are bad and we should look at the nuances of individual women and men rather than believing that women and men are inherently one thing or the other.
