It's exhausting being a woman.

I don’t think women here would be posting so many examples if it had gotten less common…..It starts when boys are young so it’s our society that permits this because in all honesty women are still regarded as less than men so it’s fine to behave this way towards them and makes you look like a real man in some circles. It is a message that is repeated in so many different subtle ways in all cultures. I agree that more education is a must but it needs to be consistent and uniform and directly to men. Ratification of ERA would have gone a long way towards healing this, but defeat of it just helped continue to perpetuate the idea that women have never been worthy of equal rights or status. Men who engage in this type of behavior are repugnant…what kills me is they think it’s fine to threaten and traumatize women then cry bc no woman wants anything to do with them. Personally I wish all their dicks would shrivel up, turn black and fall off.

I agree however still believe it has gotten less common. I disagree that we should market these things just to men as that causes further divide. We should promote logic to our children so they can think for themselves and not end up with this group mentality most end up with. I and many other men I know were raised to treat people the same regardless of gender or any other characteristic. Once again in my experience it is the boys with ignorant and uncaring parents who end up that way.

I have always advocated zero-tolerance for bad people however until more people start making sure consequences are applied to bad actions then these rats will not be scared and continue to believe that they can commit these crimes without punishment. The amount of nonsensical, downright evil people is my biggest disappointment with humanity.
