ok someone just made a post about how some women are treated a type of way purely off of vibes (specifically mean girl vibes in that post) and how it's fucked up to presuppose that going off of absolutely nothing and I definitely agree that's fucked up however, they also said men don't get treated this way and I was like H U U U U U U H H H H H H ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? men ABSOLUTELY get treated negatively by absolute strangers based off of Vibes™, are we living on the same planet? you know how many guys have been minding their own business but are called creepy or intimidating behind their back? this is especially common for men of color. bro someone once told me that I gave off serial killer vibes like ??????

#bro I hated myself in my 20s because I felt like I was walking on eggshells around women #cuz I didnt want to come across as one of the bad ones #do you know how EXHAUSTING it is to have to deal with a part of the population #that has their guard up 24/7 by default #and like yea I get it but holy shit #being a man is being accused of being an aggressor by your mere existence ESPECIALLY in feminist-ey spaces #you are guilty until proven innocent so the only way to cope is to defang yourself or just not care #I did the former in my 20s #and now in my 30s I'm the latter #idgaf anymore if you shit yourself that's on you I'm done #anyway they made a good point in their post but that one bit took me out of it #I didn't wanna respond in their post cuz it would derail their valid point but like ???
