Misogyny: systemic sexism(which includes too many things for me to list here), rampant rape, murdering women, abusing women, joking about raping, abusing, and murdering women, familicide, and pretending feminists made all of this up. Misandry: women saying mean things about men.

Study in which participants would pay the "Johanna" AI bot less than the "Johan" bot also revealed that a plurality had more comfort w/ the female bot. Most virtual assistants are "female", perceived as less threatening, more approachable & subservient.gizmodo.com/ai-agents-succes…

OTD in 1989, 37 years ago, I turned off my Wide Angle Camera (WAC), a 200 mm wide-angle lens with an aperture of f/3. There was nothing more to be gained by powering its heaters, & that energy was needed to provide more power margin. Photo by PF is the Engineering Test Article at the Smithsonian.

“No sex until marriage would have prevented this.” No. Marital rape is so common we had to make laws about it. Men rape across every country, culture, and religion, across every age group and relationship status. In every place, women have to protect women and children from men.

How the fuck do we live in a world where when women complain about the rates of male violence towards women, men take this as a personal insult instead of as a call for fucking support and solidarity for fellow human beings? #NewsCorpse

It's beyond appalling how so many men don't understand how patriarchy structures their lives.

Patriarchy does not control women because women are unnecessary. It controls women precisely BECAUSE female bodies, labor, care, reproduction, and relational work are structurally indispensable.

Men insist males are protectors, while simultaneously watching men abandon their children.

Calling a woman selfish for having an abortion in a world full of men who abandon their very much alive children is wild to me. Men walk away from living breathing children every single day with zero consequences. No legislation. No felony charges. No public shaming. But a woman making a private medical decision about her own body is the one being called selfish. The accountability has never been equal and they know it.

You think abortion is murder? Then why the fuck haven’t you chopped your dick off yet? That’s the murder weapon. Men ejaculate irresponsibly and cause the unwanted pregnancies that lead to abortion. Literally every unwanted pregnancy is caused by a man.
