Anon is worried about men
(sh.itjust.works)
This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.
Be warned:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
Nobody really cares about men besides a minority of men and an even smaller minority of women. The remainder only consider men in as much as it pertains to validating women. If you reduce women to being brood mares and play things for men it's sexist but men being seen as nothing but wallets, sentries and sex toys for women is just fine.
I'd love to see what you're basing that conclusion on. Most American women identify as feminist, which aims to liberate men as it does women from deeply entrenched gender norms. Less men identify as feminist, and one could argue some of that loss is because some men don't value the liberation of women while still valuing the liberation of men. Admittedly, not all feminists are working towards liberation equally, but at its core it's about self determination for everyone regardless of sex or gender. Most marriages in my social circle have the woman earning more than the man, and the men are not operating as "sentries" or "sex toys" in these relationships. Most do not need a male protector at this point and can certainly get sexual gratification solo or elsewhere if something happened. If you're not American I can't really speak about your country, and even in America lived experience can differ, but it seems reductionist to say nobody cares about men.
It seems like you have an interest in crypto, which is fine, but that community seems to self select for a certain type of person. It's possible you're just not in spaces where the majority of people behave the way the general population does.
white women voted for trump 65 to 35, so thats a lot of feminists voting for a rapist or your statement might be wrong ;)
This is an easily accessible statistic. If you want to discuss what it means that a third of Americans didn't vote, or issues with intersectionality, I'm happy to do so, but the statistic comes directly from pew: https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2020/07/07/61-of-u-s-women-say-feminist-describes-them-well-many-see-feminism-as-empowering-polarizing/
I understand what you're getting at, but it's not super relevant to the conversation at hand. Some women voted Trump. Women as a whole did not. If we're using voting Trump as a proxy for feminism/supporting men and womens liberation then the commenter would have to at least concede that women are more likely to support men's liberation than men are. Also, if this is to be a discussion of white women as it relates to respecting men, if men believe that nonwhite women are most likely to respect then then I'd love to see more men embracing their representation and elevating nonwhite women. I don't really see that. So it then goes back to why are men not supporting men? Why are men not elevating people that support men?
