#but she’s no more gross than the other middle aged entertainment powerhouses that take advantage of young ppl

[medievalwife]

whenever there’s a story about an older woman abusing a younger man and ppl are like ‘ew DISGUSTANG how is no one talking about this can you imagine if she were a man she’d definitely not be able to get away with this!!!’ and it’s like… idk how to break the news to you but if she were a man doing this to a woman, it would probably not change anything bc we live in a society that demonizes victims and protects predators no matter their gender. men ‘get away with this’ behavior all the time!!! also if she were a man abusing a young woman it would probably not faze anyone as much bc we’re programmed to normalize older man younger woman relationships. this isn’t to defend female predators at all but i feel like ppl go after them as a way to somehow blame feminism for why abusers are still out there 🫨
