I donât think men are âproviders and protectors.â I believe in egalitarianism. I am a third wave feminist.
Itâs interesting though that you use charged and gendered language, labeling me impotent. I am a trans man and by definition, I cannot produce semen. As a survivor of ovarian cancer, I canât reproduce at all. So yes, in this sense I am impotent.
And if reproduction is the only worth someone has, you are reproducing the same harmful rhetoric that is used against women.
How do you expect your average man on the street to shut down this behavior?
I am a 40 year old man and not anywhere near dorms or fraternities. When I was in college, I was often the young woman getting raped so I am hardly blind the fact that these are common occurrences. However, as a middle aged queer trans social worker, I am not involved with men engaging in this behavior.
Or, to paraphrase someone more articulate than me, if there are good men, they are not going to be in the group chat about raping women. Those groups have already self selected those men out of their social organizing. And I am happy to have been selected out of such peer groups. "
Please don't waste your time engaging with this circular firing squad of purity tests. Just wanted to say I appreciate your comments and hope you have a great day.
Yeah, he specifically said he don't know what he should do. You proceeded to call him impotent for that. Ok, whatever. But he literally admited not knowing in the first comment.Â
