The mom talk I needed back in my teen years. Instead my mom is on her third marriage and was disappointed when I broke up with my first boyfriend because SHE liked him, nevermind if he made me happy.

Seriously! I wish I heard more of this growing up from my mom, or ANYONE for that matter. Now I’m here picking up the pieces from the aftermath.

Ouch! Reading that hurt. My (56) mother (79) had a horrible relationship with my abusive/mentally ill father. She never wanted kids so she did the expected against her will and had her kids one right after the other. Divorced him, had an affair with a married man, then dumped us kids in my abuser fathers hands and moved 2,000 miles away to live with a man she despised for 25 years. And I wonder why I am such a mess! I'm teaching my daughters & sons to be different!!

It's truly astounding how we, as innocent, blameless children, are completely at the mercy of our parents. Unhealthy coping mechanisms and relationship dynamics imprint on us before we even have a chance to comprehend them. Sometimes it feels like I've spent my entire adult life undoing all of the damage inflicted by parents who didn't know better. I'm sure, knowing the pitfalls, you'll do a fine job with your kids.

My mom told me not to dump my total clown of a sex pestering LVM bf in high school because he told me he was going to rich one day. She said that if I played my cards right, I could end up with him.
Whaat? No thanks, mom.

Yes, thank you! Adopting a “male model” of sexual promiscuity is incredibly damaging because we do NOT have the same freedoms as men, the same access to contraception, access to abortion, or even the same regard in society.
Men can literally knock up 5 different women and walk away from each one and nobody would call it “child abandonment”, they’d just call him a dead beat dad and try to collect child support. Women can’t even leave a child unattended in a food court to do a job interview 30-feet away without someone calling the police on them.

It's the fault of this false dichotomy libfems and patriarchy has been feeding us: if you want equality, it means you have to be the same as man, go 50/50, have one-nighters, deny our biological differences... This is not feminism and not equality.
After my pickme period, I have had an attitude which would count as "prude" or "religious" for most people, while I just watch after my interests & well-being and I see no benefit of giving access to my body to some random scrote. And no, I don't have "urges". And I'm not religious (another invention of men).

I love this. I was raised Christian and the only message about sex I ever got was "premarital sex is evil and you'll go to hell." The only alternative I saw to it when I was younger was liberal feminism. Which has misguided so many women.
And this is gold: "Female sexual freedom is charging the highest price for sex. That is, care and commitment."

I went for The millionaire Matchmaker mantra along with my best friend in my twenties.
No sex before monogamy.
I stuck to it. Saved me from a lot of scuzz bags. I lost my virginity at 25 to a guy that was incredibly devoted to making me feel good and jumped through all my hoops for two years.
On the other hand I feel like it all fall apart after those two years in, once he decided that he no longer wanted to be monogamous and wanted to experiment. He was upfront about it but my reaction should have been like, no, that's not who I am. This is going to destroy our intimacy. It's either me or GTFO. It also should have clued me in that he had started watching porn and he "respected"😂😂😂 me too much to try those scenarios out on me because he "loved me".
Cue the three people he slept with. Cue bringing drama into the relationship. Sure it helped him figure out that he had borderline personality. It also helped him become suicidal for the first time in 4 years.
One girl is still hung up on him 6 years later. Six years! Pickmeisha hell. I feel bad for her but she never was interested in the truth. Just saw me as the person blocking the door to him.
The third girl is unstable as hell and his best guy friends tell me quite openly that she needs serious therapy and not a relationship. I feel bad for her, but not my zoo and not my monkeys.
I hate that I didn't follow my gut. It absolutely destroyed our sex life. I know he wore condoms but you can't put a condom on your brain. He started watching more and more porn and it showed. He went from the most dedicated intimate partner who put my pleasure on the first priority to treating sex like something I owed him. Went from super kink compatible to telling me I was never interested in sex when he wanted to. And by kink, I mean using things that enhanced the moment, increased the pleasure. Not any bdsm bullshit. Loving, intimate scenarios that built trust and connection.
I honestly didn't make that connection until today. That was really the breaking point. My gut told me no, but he kept trying to convince me. He turned into a porn sick gross pile of shit.
This is all very yikes on bikes.
Even the hvm in bed can turn into a scuzzbag with enough (any) porn.

I had a more neglectful upbringing from a mentally ill mom who gave me a few lectures as a very small child on how sex is dirty and nasty and you should only do it with a husband. 0 guidance as a teen and went my own way by sexually "liberating myself" by letting men take advantage of me.
I wish 27 year old me could go shake 17 year old me by the shoulders and tell her this verbatim so I could skip all the trauma I endured from doing so. My own daughters will not have to learn this the hard way like I did.

Agreed 👏
I think for a lot of young women they don’t have a good alternative ‘model’ for modern sex. Even outwardly mentioning issues with the male model carry the risk of personal attacks saying you’re against “sex positivity” or that you’re comments are shaming others. Or being called a prude or immature (the IRONY). So it makes me so happy to see other women talk about this.
[–]SkiesEclipseFDS Apprentice 88 points89 points90 points 5 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
I don’t think promiscuity is even empowering for men. They’re conditioned by society to “spread their seed” and shove the feelings down when they feel hollow after another meaningless fling. They call it “post nut clarity,” I call it “your conscience screaming at you to be a better person.”

This!! I've also heard some girls say that their "post nut clarity" goes away when they consume erotica and other variants instead of watching porn when masturbating. Of course these are just anecdotes I heard and not like a scientific study so take it with a grain of salt but you're probably onto something about the screaming conscience.

Seriously! How long have women been trying to act like men and wondered why they're still hurt, being used, not fulfilled, etc.
Being promiscuous, sleeping around, trying not to get attached or engage emotionally like men only benefits men. Of course they want us to have more frequent, "adventurous" sex with less-than-ideal partners! 🙃
Have you ever met a man who slept around in his youth? Who can't get or keep a girlfriend? They age out of any semblance of attractiveness and die alone. Is that what we want?

[–]2340000Ruthless Strategist 368 points369 points370 points 5 years ago (28 children) | Copy Link
Men are sociopaths. Their ability "to not feel emotions" is an unwillingness to see women as humans. They've normalized abuse and the exploitation of women's bodies. Male behavior doesn't work for women because we aren't socialized the same way.
The only part from the video I disagree with is the belief that women should initiate the "what are we" discussion. We certainly have the right to initiate, but we shouldn't. If he hasn't offered what you want by a certain time, just walk. Don't believe men are bumbling idiots who "can't read minds"🤷
[–]modernmedusaaRuthless Strategist 223 points224 points225 points 5 years ago* (24 children) | Copy Link
That’s exactly it, they’re not socialised to look for love or seek healthy relationships they’re socialised through porn and bro culture to see us as state owned wombs to pass on their genes (pat on the back!) & get a lifelong bangmaid who cooks /cleans for them...& to see us as interchangeable sexual conquests. The average man does not register women as human. He does not care about a woman’s emotions or desires- he pretends to in order to tie down his flavour of the month/year.
Women grow up on Disney tales telling them to self sacrifice, be pretty, honest & wait for Mr right whilst men grow up on violent video games & porn & are told to aspire to be self serving lying sociopaths - no Mr right is coming until they socialise themselves out of it- which most don’t bc it benefits them not to. Men exploit women’s desires for love & give them nothing but trust, issues & hurt in return. Then we wonder where it goes wrong lol. Blaming it all on women & their ‘choices’ is futile bc there simply is not enough self reflective healthy men to go around so if the choice is abuse or nothing for most, that is not a real ‘choice’. I rarely bump into a woman who is ‘satisfied’ with her partner- the vast vast majority loathe being with them. The men- don’t really care as long as they benefit somehow. That speaks volumes.

Exactly. I saw a comment b4 from an FDSer who had started having panic attacks from 7 years spent being gaslit & hurt by men on dating apps. She said it’s like her body was telling her ‘enough’ & to stay away from men bc she’s too overwhelmed by all the lies , cheating, betrayals, abuse & mind games. I have a friend who also experienced panic attacks coming out of yet another abusive 5 year relationship- she was looking for love, but got a shit ton of disrespect instead. She’s not ok & I try to check in but how many times do women have to pick themselves up from this bullshit b4 it takes serious toll on them? Trying to have a healthy relationship with a man will most times leave you feeling mentally unwell/traumatised- whether it’s emotional abuse or physical. How many times must a woman do that to herself & put trust in a man b4 she says ‘enough’? I think many women can relate to that sheer exhaustion. She said it’s high time we stopped making light fun of the way men treated us & saw it for what it really is. It’s not a joke, it’s not funny. They are making women mentally ill, till their point their body /mind has had enough. Relentless exploitation & abuse. I completely agree. Women are groomed to minimise their pain & get ready for the next opportunist to hurt them. It’s a cycle of insanity- and it needs to stop.
It’s psychological warfare they’ve waged on us. Women are wired for healthy connections- the complete opposite of what most men have to offer us.
It’s telling men expect us to sympathise with male mental health but they constantly make a mockery of ‘damaged modern women on antidepressants’ who have often spent a lifetime trying to love empty parasitic lying men. Many which have been raped , abused & had their souls /ability to trust or love- worn out by men. Give them an inch of trust, they take a mile & exploit it- so why do they deserve the benefit of the doubt? Most times when they get it, they prove our doubts right. Men will absolutely suck your soul dry if you let them & laugh in your face as they do it - I’ve seen it countless time’s. Yet women are still shamed for seeking relationships, like a normal human being. And besides - the world relies on women to birth the next generation. The problem is men & the way they’re socialised. Womens ‘choices’ can only do so much if most men are unfit for relationships & unwilling to play ball. FDS simply highlights how much women share in common- everyone here has a whole catalogue of shitty experiences with men, it’s no coincidence.
[–]2340000Ruthless Strategist 76 points77 points78 points 5 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link
I love your responses😍. But how annoying are the articles that fearmonger about the declining birthrate? So society abuses us, en masse, and then wants to cry about the next generation? What of women's mental health?
And, I honestly grapple with my desire for a healthy relationship with the majority of people, men especially, because of oppressive gender structures. Is it even possible? Once you move past the pickme stage, you cannot unsee how fucked this world is. Men consume violence against women on a daily basis. Men and pickmes bully women for "being hurt" because women's opinions are an inconvenience. Not to mention the breakdown on a race, class, and cultural scale.
[–]modernmedusaaRuthless Strategist 71 points72 points73 points 5 years ago* (2 children) | Copy Link
Yes and also how much has porn culture increased over the last ten years? Why is it they point the finger at ‘wreckless independent western women’. Do they think porn addicts make faithful stable partners or fathers? Lol. Do most men actually want to grow up & settle down b4 30? No. So what they expect us to be their full time slaves whilst they froth over porn & cheat on us? Is that a stable environment for kids? Like do they actually consider the impact on women?
I’m glad birth rates are falling. There’s too many broken homes as it is. And we all know lifelong LVM’s & pickmeisha’s make terrible parents. It’s better women only have kids when they actually want them, when they’re ready & have got their own backs covered financially etc.
I feel the same. It’s natural to desire relationships but as you said- once the rose tinted specs fall off- suddenly staying single seems the far superior option. And I get a lot of attention off men/don’t struggle for relationships but don’t value their attention since I know what sort of longterm bullshit most of them want to sign me up for. They can’t get their heads around it- that I value being single over spending decades trying to change some clown who didn’t deserve me in the first instance. Why let them drag you down? Id rather help lift women up. I’m not flattered by their compliments or them lusting after my genes bc most would drag me down the sewer in a heartbeat. They just like the idea of trying to ‘tame’ me & use me to make them look better/more accomplished, at my expense. Most of these men drop their mask within 6 months so why the fuck would I sign up to another 10 years of that shit & have their kids? No thanks. Society hates smart women who don’t want to fall into that trap. Women have more freedom to advance when they see through the noise
[–]Davina33FDS Disciple 14 points15 points16 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
Yep. I grew up in a broken home, domestic violence, drug and drink addicted parents. Even though I'm nothing like my parents, I do not want to create another broken home. I've never wanted children and I'm fighting autoimmune disorders. Life is hard enough. The cycle got broken with me.

It's true-I hate that TRP ruined any Matrix analogy but it really is like waking up to the true plight of women. Looking at the carnage and chaos and even trying to envision a healthy relationship is so difficult at this point. I don't wish to go back, but the road forward is certainly unpaved as of yet.

Before FDS, I didn’t know other women were going through this. My ex had convinced me that I had borderline personality disorder when it was actually cPTSD from all the trauma men have put me through. I truly, from the bottom of my heart, did not think other women were having these experiences. I blamed myself. I called myself crazy. I put myself down. I was in such a dark place and had such a tenuous grasp on my reality due to gaslighting, I’m not sure I would have survived the last year without FDS. Thank you to all of you amazing ladies.

It's the classic divide and conquer. They invade any female space to ensure we don't share our experiences because if we do then we realise it's not us, we're not crazy. It doesn't benefit them, so they tried to prevent it.
FDS is a breath of fresh air. I'm so glad it's helped you see that it wasn't you, and it wasn't your fault. Because it really wasn't.

Sis if I had a penny for every lying narcissistic gaslighting cowardly man who called me ‘crazy’ ‘mentally ill’ ‘insecure’ ‘paranoid’ when I was bang on the money- I’d be one rich bitch. It doesn’t work on me cos I’ve seen it too many times- classic scrote behaviour . Trust your gut instinct- never wronged me yet. Once they start up that monologue- that’s my sign to leave.
I’ve seen men lie even with screenshots in their face. So I don’t even need the evidence anymore. I peep the signs & get the hell out.
It’s absolutely normal for this shit to take a toll on you after a while but that’s why no relationship is worth having unless it actually BENEFITS you in the longterm. Most men feel no remorse for their actions & are basically looking to wear you down psychologically- until you’re so weak you’ll take it. The trick is to TRUST your gut & get out b4 that happens. Don’t let them steal your time.
Sociopath men will project their issues onto you & get big mad when you won’t take their shit. It’s just what they do- you’ll be hitting your head against a brick wall unless you get out. Also many are going to extreme lengths to pose as wholesome family men bc of declining birth rates. It’s not our job to try ‘fix’ adult men with anti social personality disorders- they made a choice to be that way. And we don’t owe them humiliation, ‘submission’, sympathy or children either.
My message for them is: get to fuck. Id rather spend my time lifting women up than waste time trying to change a stubborn scrote who does the same shit to every woman. When you lift women up- you actually make a good change in the world, especially since women birth everyone here. Scrotes are a negative investment that are guaranteed to wear you down.

This is ABSOLUTELY TRUE. I've dealt with PTSD after more than one relationship that only in hindsight could I see was emotionally abusive. And society is geared for victim blaming with all the focus on codependence, "raising your vibration," spiritual bypassing, the "what to do to get/keep a man" articles and books, the idea that love/a relationship/marriage/children are the highest goals of a woman's life and not attaining them is failure, the ingrained attitude to give men the benefit of the doubt. It's sickening. My mental health only dips when I'm dealing with some dude behaving badly. Seeing that so many other women have these experiences is eye-opening.
[–]Daciana_DaysThrowaway Account 18 points19 points20 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
I went through an 8yr long emotionally abusive relationship, after I finally got the backbone to leave him, I had chronic panic attacks whenever I had to see him (we have kids together) and being around men even as friends would set me off as well.
It's taken about 6years to heal and get to a point where I can (most of the time) be neutral about seeing or hearing from him, and also to be comfortable around men as friends.
I have one male friend I am comfortable enough to spend time with or have at my house. Most other men are very off putting, always too close, too pushy.....

I still think about an OLD profile I saw that said “obviously not on here to find love.” Why... wouldn’t you want love? Why would you prefer empty, meaningless sexual activity? Men are broken.
[–]modernmedusaaRuthless Strategist 83 points84 points85 points 5 years ago* (1 child) | Copy Link
They are very broken but it’s ok must will end up bald & alone past 35. Yet their anger & violence will become our issue somehow& not theirs.
They believe love is for ‘cucks’ now. I’m pretty sure there’s an agenda to turn men completely off heterosexual women. Because they seem more concerned about impressing other men with their latest victim of the month. Similar to a cat bringing back a dead bird to impress its owner. Women are the prey (birds).
They think they’re ‘correcting’ society by abusing & degrading several women a month- then they’re shocked where all these hostile women, refusing to give birth, come from. Hmm. Look in the mirror men! They pollute the same pond they fish from. Very stupid idea when you think about it.
No civilised or intelligent society would treat women with such contempt & disrespect- since we’re in charge of birthing the next gen here.
But this is why most women don’t respect men- they put their ego & dick above everyone else. They can’t see past their own little bubble to see the extent of the damage they’re doing.

Being promiscuous, sleeping around, trying not to get attached or engage emotionally like men only benefits men.
It really does. I don't have casual sex any more. All it ever did was leave me feeling used and empty. I think I was even straight-up lied to in a couple of instances in order for the guy to get me into bed.
No more. Care and commitment is now the minimum expected.

Agree. Also want to add that they're not even 'adapting the male model' They just keep servicing men while trying to convince themselves that it's what they want.
If they were doing what men do, they would:
Expect men to dress in sexy clothing and make themselves look good according to female standards.
At the same time women shouldn't put too much effort in their looks or the date itself because 'We don't know each other so well' and 'what's on the inside counts'
Should require men to send them photos that show them in vulnerable position (for example with a dildo in their a*s). Photos that they wouldn't want anyone to see and could potentially ruin their social and professional life.
Sex is mosty oral and clit stimulation for the woman, making out and maybe the woman will touch their pp for 1 min.
Many more...
If women were doing these things, this would truly be fighting the double standard, then sure - go be promiscuous.

Maybe she addresses it another video, but I think another piece to sexual freedom for women is the ability to ask for what we want sexually and get it, the ability to have high standards for partner’s behavior in bed, and access to sex toys so we are able to independently have pleasure, even before ever engaging in sexual activity with a partner.
I absolutely don’t want to follow a male model of sexual freedom, so we should be designing a model for female sexual freedom that is neither the same nor the opposite of the male model.
Being self motivated to experience pleasure and having high standards for what pleasure I expect a partner to give me is a piece that’s often not talked about when it comes to female sexuality.

I wish I had been told this as a teenager, when I embraced the “freedom” to act like the guys. Now, after years of a good marriage and a daughter of my own, I still regret a lot about those years. In retrospect, I let guys have sex with me to seem cool and powerful in their eyes, but inside I felt used and uncared for. And of course always alone with any consequences. I like your definition of freedom much better, and will pass it in to the young women in my life. Thanks.

This in particular is why I can’t begin to understand why people call us “female incels” or think that we’re a group of misandrists. Our goal is very clearly being treated with the dignity & respect that we deserve & if a man or really any person can’t do that, we don’t have the time for them nor should we be expected to give them it. To feel like a victim because FDS doesn’t accept what you’re willing to (not) offer isn’t persecution, it’s just having standards to not accept the lowest effort available.

This is so true and why I absolutely hate hate normalizing sleeping around or if you’re prudish about sex or think “casual sex” is a literal oxymoron, that somehow you’re internalizing misogyny against yourself or buying into the patriarchy. Sex quite literally releases hormones that attach us to other humans. In no way is it ever casual and teaching young women that it is, ignoring their very biology, is just setting women up to be hurt and used by men. We should be allowed to demand defining a relationship before we allow ourselves to get so attached. My therapist recently told me that I should take things slow emotionally but clarified she didn’t mean physically, which I thought was an absolute joke. It wasn’t that she was against taking things slow physically if that’s what I wanted but she literally thought the concepts can be separated, and for women, they can’t. They aren’t meant to be.

She said that female sexual empowerment is charging the highest cost for sex, which is commitment and care. I think women will always want commitment and a truly caring partner to feel good about sex. I know I do.

Oh I definitely believe that most women would still choose commitment even in that ideal world, I was talking about the minority of women who are genuinely interested in casual sex.

I’d love casual sex:

-if most men were attractive and smelled good
-if I felt that treating human beings transactionally wasn’t soul sucking and shallow
Until then, normalize sex as an extension of loving, intimate relationships.

Hot take but I think they're not mutually exclusive. As much as I am a radical feminist as most of the ladies on this sub, I think that liberal feminists are also doing good for feminism by fighting for sexual liberation and dismantling purity culture. I don't think that we as women should shame other women for being "sexually promiscuous". There are women who just love sex, who don't get attached through sex, who orgasm easily so hookups are mutually beneficial for them, who are confident in being sexy. If that works for them, why should we shame them for it? But in turn, liberal feminists who are sex-positive shouldn't shame radical feminists for not engaging in hookups, not wanting to have sex before a relationship or saving themselves for marriage, being against BDSM, being against porn, being against prostitution, being against polyamory and polygamy.
I think that true female sexual liberation is achieved when women are not shamed for having sex, AND for not having sex. I think that it is achieved when society acknowledges women's sexual agency. It is achieved when the world becomes educated about consent. It is achieved when we stop doing things for the male gaze, and dismantle porn and prostitution that fuel misogyny and violence against women. It is achieved when we establish the definition of sexual assault and have this crime be punished proportionately. And when women are given access to free birth control, legal abortion, and sterilization.
As long as women are confident and informed in their stance, and not just doing something to adhere to what society thinks they should do--whether that's putting out on the third date or preserving their "virginity"--I don't see the issue. Instead of shaming other women and fighting amongst ourselves, we should hold men more accountable.
[–]kangaskhaniscubonesFDS Newbie 28 points29 points30 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I think you make a great point about women being much more than the sex they provide men. It sounds obvious, but a lot of men can’t wrap their heads around women being anything other than sex providers. I do believe there are some women that enjoy casual sex, but I think many of the women that say they do are just engaging in it because they think it makes them liberated or woke for saying it, rather than actually feeling it.
[–]GrapeJuiceEnthusiastFDS Disciple 28 points29 points30 points 5 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link
There are definitely some women who genuinely enjoy casual no strings attached sex with many men but the problem is that liberal feminism tells young women and girls that it's empowering to put up with shitty sex with bad men. How many of those women who "enjoy" and partake in casual sex are actually orgasming on the regular from their sexual encounters? How many of their casual sex partners actually give a shit about female pleasure? How many of their sexual partners aren't rapey scrotes who watched too much porn and now feel entitled to anal and choking? Until men in general stop being so shit women should be encouraged to stay away from casual sex. We need to stop rewarding these men who can't make a woman orgasm to save his life.
I should also make the point that men who seek casual sex are usually shitty misogynists. They aim to fuck as many women as possible to look cool to their bros and raise their "body count" for popularity purposes. They literally treat women like objects. So if you're a woman who likes casual sex I get it but are these dudes REALLY who you want to be having sex with?
[–]jasmine-blossomFDS Newbie 12 points13 points14 points 5 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link
You are making some excellent points. Personally, I absolutely have enjoyed casual sex, but it requires a partner who actually cares about my pleasure, and it requires that I have the capability of advocating for myself so that I am respected and taken care of. Way too often, girls are encouraged to engage in casual sex when they are young and inexperienced in choosing partners that are going to respect them, and inexperienced in advocating for what they want sexually. This results in bad sex with shitty guys.
No women should be encouraged to have casual sex, but all women should be encouraged to learn about red flag behavior, how to advocate for her own sexual needs, and all women should be encouraged to do some deep introspection to figure out whether she is the type of person who can safely engage in casual sex or if she is better suited to a relationship. Some women just aren’t going to be happy with casual sex, and those women need to be aware of that for themselves so they aren’t looking for more than their casual sex partner is going to give them.
I no longer engage in casual sex because I have found that I can have a better sex life with a consistent partner who knows me very well. I’ve still put my own boundaries in place to keep those relationships from getting too serious, but being with someone who deeply cares about you is going to get you a better orgasm than someone who doesn’t care.
[–][deleted] 9 points10 points11 points 5 years ago (5 children) | Copy Link
Yes the culture as it exists does not equip most women to be able to vet for good casual sexual experiences. Because the culture is what it is, encouraging casual sex puts women in danger and delivers them to men that literally do not give a fuck about them. We can’t send unprepared and unsuspecting girls out there knowing that they’re much likely to get abused than they are to find a fun casual hook up. It’s irresponsible and they shouldn’t be sent to the slaughter on the off chance that their promiscuity will show the world that girls can be promiscuous too and that it’s ok.
The safe message, and safety is obviously what we need to aim for, is to stay away from men.
The savy horny girls who can vet men and get what they want are going to get what they want are going to do that no matter what each side is pedaling. You can have your fun, without leading susceptible girls astray. I’m not trying to infantalize women, but all the girls who I know who “don’t catch l feelings” and “love” unicorn hunting cause they’re totes bi are DYING on the inside.
[–]jasmine-blossomFDS Newbie 5 points6 points7 points 5 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
A lot of what you’re talking about has to do with the fact the girls are encouraged to behave this way before they’re adults. Hook up culture starts young, and minors cannot be expected to know how to identify red flags or how to advocate for themselves, and they do need to be protected. That’s not infantilizing, that’s just understanding that a child doesn’t have the emotional and mental maturity to establish healthy boundaries and standards.
Everything we’ve been seeing in teen magazines and studies on teen sexual behavior lately, makes me very concerned about young women’s safety in their sex lives in relationships. I know when I was a teenager, I was absolutely not interested in having a relationship, and I wasn’t particularly interested in boys, yet I was still targeted by an insane amount of sexual harassment and sexual abuse. And my natural inclination to avoid relationships with boys didn’t protect me physically, but it did make me less emotionally vulnerable than my friends who were desperate to have boyfriends. Both me and my friends who wanted relationships, were hurt by the culture that perpetuated this idea that men hold all the cards and that we as girls must adapt to men’s expectations both sexually and in relationships.
I continue to see this dynamic hurt grown women when I got to college, and a lot of my friends were participating in hook up culture, getting hurt by guys who used them. It’s so fucked that women and girls are not trained to understand how to identify red flag behavior, and actively discouraged from having boundaries and standards. Most women I know didn’t know how to or that they even could have boundaries and standards until they reached their mid to late 20s or 30s. Women should not be suffering through 15 years of abusive male behavior before they realize they can demand more for themselves.
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 5 years ago* (3 children) | Copy Link
The bit about not knowing boundaries till late 20s is big. I didn’t know what a non-physical boundary was. I literally as a grown adult did not FEEL that I could say no. Often it didn’t occur to me. I didn’t think it was an option. It sounds ridiculous because it is. I was groomed by my mom and my the media so hard to ignore my body and mind screaming when I didn’t want something. I just felt heavy and foggy, but I couldn’t hear the screams.
it sounds like my experience isn’t unique. Dating with no self awareness fucked me up because I got used and I “let it happen” but it was like trying to stop a car with no breaks.
Edit: meant isn’t unique instead of is unique
[–]jasmine-blossomFDS Newbie 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link
I think this is a really common experience for women, from what I’ve heard from friends. Especially if you were subjected to any kind of child abuse, even if it was non-sexual child abuse, it’s really common to believe because of your experience that saying no or standing up for yourself will just result in you getting hurt or more hurt.
There are two parts to that from what I’ve seen in girls and women. One is the fear of saying no out of self protection. If you have previous trauma from being sexually assaulted, or you have previous trauma from domestic violence or child abuse, you learned very quickly that sometimes the best way of protecting yourself is to just quietly submit. It’s really horrible to have to experience that, but it’s not a lack of intelligence or self-preservation, it’s a method of self-preservation that does work in a lot of instances. Learning red flag behavior and self defense is what’s needed in this case.
The other is the fear of saying no out of desire to please ones partner or not upset ones partner. Again, that’s a socialized behavior but this one we can actually say is never ever necessary and no woman should be encouraged to “lie down and think of England” as the saying goes.
Teaching boundaries and standards is something that should happen in sex Ed classes, but since I don’t see that happening anytime soon, it’s something that we as women should be talking about constantly so that we can help other women and other girls establish their own standards and boundaries.
When I was young I really didn’t know how to talk to a boyfriend about feeling unsatisfied or uncomfortable with something that was happening sexually. There’s this culture of women being trained not to hurt anyone’s feelings, and it’s often at our own expense. That shit needs to change immediately. We should be looking out for ourselves when it comes to sex and relationships, because no one else is going to be looking out for us.
[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 5 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link
They’d never do that in sex Ed, not on a mass scale. Too many men would have to agree to that. Which is, as we’re discussing, why we need to push these messages informally online because no one else is going to do it .

Yea it’s too bad that these messages can never be part of a healthy sex Ed curriculum. It does make me happy to see women like Peggy ore stein and Gail dines speaking out about the negative influence of pornography and the current issues surrounding teen sex. I hope that we continue to spread more of these messages online particularly on apps like TickTock where more young people are participating in the discussion. I had no exposure to any of this type of information when I was younger even though I went to a school with a very good sex education program, so I hope these informal methods of information dissemination are effective.
[–]WatzooFDS Newbie 36 points37 points38 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I agree, but I also think that asking people to fully register how much promiscuity culture and purity culture are the exact same thing is maybe demanding a bit much of most groups. Most people are going to swing from one extreme to the other, leaving women to eke out whatever freedom we can along the way.
It will take many cultures a long time to absorb the idea of a female sexuality that in no way centers itself on its ability to induce a boner in men, and that is not in any way identity-defining for the woman claiming it.
[–]AocwannabeFDS Apprentice 60 points61 points62 points 5 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link
The woman that loves and engages in casual sex- she is hypothetical. She is not real.
I have not met a single woman in real life who doesn’t get attached through sex, who orgasms easily and finds hookups mutually beneficial.
I have met lots of women (lib fems) that are in deep denial about how much they enjoy casual sex and FWB. Pull back the curtains just a little bit and they express that they have low self- worth or that they accept casual because the man will not offer more.
This is why I loathe “Sex and the City” (directed by a gay, white man by the way) and the glamorization of hookup culture. The reality of casual sex is that it’s a public and mental health crisis.
A woman who “loves” a lifestyle where she goes into strange men’s houses or invites strange men to her home, where she risks STDs and pregnancy with a man that will unlikely care for her if she needs help, where she watches a man she shares her body with choose other women for relationships....yeah, I’ve never met her because she doesn’t exist.
Also, I do shame women that know better and are actively advocating for other women to get set up for abuse.

Why is common sense called "common" when it's so rare?

I love her points. I was having this conversation the other day. Instead of bringing ourselves lower in the name of equality and sexual freedom. Equality should be brought by holding men to the same standard put on women.

Female brains also get short circuited with Oxytocin as soon as we're having sex. But the immediate drop in testosterone after sex makes males want to cut and run, so their already-lower level of Oxytocin doesn't have near the same bonding effect. We cannot outsmart our biology. We are hard-wired to attach to one man because of pregnancy. Blame evolution, but there it is.

Coming from someone with a deadbeat father who had 7 children with 4 different women. THIS is more accurate than ever.

What is promiscuity/promiscuous female behavior? At what point are you considered promiscuous? I wish we still weren't using those terms, but I get understand the value in this discussion.
[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 5 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
I think she might be using it intentionally the way it’s listed in the dictionary. In the dictionary it’s neutral, and these women are trying to approach sex with lots of strange partners as neutral when it’s not cause it’s gross but only cause men are gross
