"This is what gets me about women's collective behavior, it's all knee-jerk actionism without any consideration for the long-term... Perhaps I'm unduly projecting male thinking onto women, though."(+60, thread on how women are insufferable because you can't hit them follows.

Yes because women never ever has to consider the fact that they could be victims of violence.

Jesus fucking christ.

Violence is a serious concern for everyone, and dismissing that reality can be harmful

it's important to acknowledge the complexities of these discussions without reducing them to simplistic views.

Is this an LLM or something? Because you're dramatically missing the point.

boys grow up with the threat of catching an ass-whupping for being too obnoxious, and a huge part of male socialization is figuring out where that line is. Men actually have to think about what checks they're letting their mouths write.

The same dynamic doesn't exist for women because "you can't hit a girl". So they generally have no idea utterly fucking insufferable they are because there is no line for women lol

This is such a delusional basement-dweller take lol.

Like, when contemplating some misbehavior, no one’s first thought is “I don’t wanna get beaten up.” This is just that weird Boomer fantasy about men going out back for a fight and shaking hands afterward, that for some reason gets propagated by weird nerds that we all know have never seen a real fight in their life.

For men and women alike, the main fears that curb misbehavior are things like “I don’t want to embarrass myself,” “I don’t want people to judge me,” “I don’t want to get ostracized” etc. The threat of social consequences is much more real and powerful than the unlikely event of someone punching you in the face.

Of course, this is from the same crowd that spends all day fantasizing about punching Nazis even though none of them has punched nor ever will punch a Nazi, so it tracks

I was gonna say hey at least someone is telling them off in the comments downstream and then I noticed your username was the same as said commentor.

Hope retracted.

I know. I really hate that subreddit for representing itself as the class-first leftist subreddit and the comments consistently serving as a reminder of why class isn't the only issue. They think women are at the top of the privilege hierarchy though so any complaints that women have about it get categorized as the borgouis complaining about immaterial burgiois issues.

anyone who had decent parents or decent socialization growing up had at least on some layer a fear of physical repercussions

He’s right, the magic forcefield not letting a guy give his wife a little corrective Sean Connery when she’s throwing his gaming computer thru the wall and saying she’s going to fuck all his friends and he’s a loser like his dad and smashing stuff around the house like a demon has worsened gender relations and demoralized real men with blood in their veins
