Nobody promotes the patriarchy better than women jezuzfreaks... How about "Attention men! Don't fcukn assault women in any season, at any time of day, in or out of a car" #ffs Kelly... get back in your treehouse and keep your syrup to yourself...
@thedisasterautist Well this is true - but how many posts are there ever from men telling other men not to be dicks? Or doing something IRL when they see it happening. It just doesn't happen much, and to be honest, there's likely not a woman on this planet who hasn't known this stuff since early teenhood.. It's just frustrating to have it put upon us to prepare for bad behaviour after sooo many years.
@prairiecelt: I see posts online, as you said, sometimes. I see it more IRL, the doing something, but that's because of part of my background, i.e., bouncing and club/even security, designated driver, and my upbringing. My mom was the first Victims Advocate in the state in the 1980s, my paternal grandmother was a teacher and one of the first h.s. guidance counselor in the state in the 1950s though the mid-1980s, and paternal grandfather was a magistrate and circuit court judge. My mom was...
@prairiecelt: ...also the director of a YWCA women's and children's center in the 1990s. I am also only marginally binary, if that makes sense. (My relationship with identity since toddlerhood has been unusual, almost certainly due to my neurology.)
@thedisasterautist And on a related note, it's 50 yrs today since Billie Jean King whupped whathisname on the courts and just today, there's a motion to give her a gold congressional medal - if it passes she will be the FIRST female athlete to get one, the day after she opened the FIRST professional women's hockey draft. We're patient, but somedays....
