The sad truth.

Yep! Getting death threats as we speak from an ex. He is posting videos with my full first and last name slandering my name while threatening death. YouTube refuses to remove the videos. Police refuse to press charges. All with an active restraining order. If he wasn’t bound to another state for parole (for his animal crimes not all the rape and abuse they refuse to prosecute) I’d be fucking dead already.

Its so sad how true this is.

Ugh. It's so true, and males like Donald Glover can stand up and make jokes about it and that's the only time males will ever listen to it... but then they'll take it as a joke like "haha yeah I bet!" and then do nothing to change it

I want to add that in many cases, when men have a story about a “crazy” woman, they are lying. When most men call a woman “crazy” you’re only hearing the part of the story that comes after them lying to, hurting, manipulating and/or straight up abusing this particular woman. When they describe the “crazy” behavior they are describing it as a unique event rather than a reaction to something so of course it sounds crazy to everyone else.

In some cases, they just make up these stories completely because the woman rejected them.

Wow, because fewer live to tell. Chilling.

Also I can attest there are no parades when you put some stalking psycho coworker in jail. You learn not to talk about it because bystanders are like "Um, errr..." and start looking at you like you're bad luck whom trouble follows.

We're telling them. But then we're labeled as sexist... Or in FDS' case, a hate sub.

Men define crazy as their girlfriend getting too “emotional” because he doesn’t do the bare minimum or she cried because he ignored her. All gaslighting

I came to argue my ex was crazy but not murderous. But then I remember us driving home from a night out drinking and he was belligerently drunk. I told him to stop acting like a baby then he got so so so ridiculously mad. Started waving his hand gun around. O was thinking im gonna die, but I was so mad he was being so stupid I kept mocking him like oh wow youre so bad ass waving your gun out the window. Then he kept screaming at me to pull over the car so I finally did and he got out and started walking off so I got out to argue with him and we got into a fist fight. Then when we finally got home he took off walking. I tried to find him, but got annoyed and gave up after a couple of trips around the neighborhood. Then he called me at 6 am telling me how im such a piece of shit for not coming to find him and that he was done with me. Unfortunately that wasn't the last of our relationship. It ended about 6 months after that though. My husband is such an easy man to be around. I feel so lucky to have someone that cares about me and my feelings. We aren't perfect, but we always make up after we argue and we never everrrr get physical or scream at each other

Also crazy ex girlfriend stories are “funny.” Crazy ex boyfriend stories are perceived as “being dramatic/hyperbolic, playing the victim, complaining, etc.” They are fundamentally not perceived the same way.

I forget who it is but there's a woman stand up who has a bit about how women watch true crime to take notes. 🙃 Sadly kinda accurate.

Donald Glover just telling it like it is...

Fearing for my life because of a man is the main reason I have been single for around 2 years. My ex made plenty of threats and I honestly feel like this is the norm. I don't want to be murdered and this is sadly a possibility for ALL women involved with any man.

Alice Fraser is so wonderful. She has an hour long special on Amazon that’s fantastic. Deep thoughts, quirkiness, stage presence. She’s charming and hilarious without being crude or offensive. Which is funny too, but sometimes becomes a crutch.
