You know acting like this is representative of the general hurdles that everyday women have facing sexual harassment is really fucking stupid.

Except, you know, women keep getting violently assaulted or murdered for saying “no” to men:

So yeah. Women have this in the back of their minds when sexually harassed or approached by a creep. That any man who they reject could turn violent and kill them. So maybe its time to have a conversation about misogyny and the entitlement men have toward women. 

How anyone can look at an incident of sexual harassment in school culminating in violent retribution and not see an everyday danger in something that literally happens every day is just mind-blowing.

Because we can’t admit women have legitimate reasons to be wary of men because that’s mean and hurts men’s feelings.

there’s a thread or two on twitter of women being killed for rejecting men… when the woman first said she would start it, men called her all kinds of a liar. and then as she added to it every day, they started the name-calling, threats, etc.

i say all this to say i do not believe for one second that men don’t know this is a real problem. they just don’t want us discussing it and compiling the information.

it’s just like how the NRA keeps pushing the “lone wolf” and “isolated incident” narrative. it’s just like how the cops keep pushing “isolated incident”. They know it’s a lie.
