I didn’t mean for this post to cause a bunch of arguing in the comments =(

I thought this was just some gallows humor (e.g. “Everything’s lovely except that I have to fear for my safety all the time”) type of shitpost that sounded similar to comments I’ve heard from women irl a lot.

    Because men are statistically more likely to commit violent crimes. Targeting both men and women. Women are just easier targets because they are physically weaker.

      in some places people of certain skincolors or descents are more likely to commit certain crimes so that’s not really an argument.

      The better argument IMO is that the racist versions target discriminated minority groups, while this one targets the group that is generally not the victim

        There is a difference between systematic oppression based on race/class/faith/etc, and males being more aggressive across nature.

        You don’t understand, men are only 13% of the population but commit 52% of all crime, google 13/52 to find out more!

      Because men are statistically more likely to commit violent crimes.

      So you’re saying it’s ok to make negative statements about a subset of people as long as they are statistically more likely to commit violent crimes?

        Men violence towards women is a result of systemic oppression. Stop trying to make social comentary when you understand jackshit about society.

        You are not the victim, you’re just playing one to justify your sexism, misogynistic prick.
