The core issue that nobody is mentioning is that (cis) men are ultimately not the people who suffer the consequences for not taking it so they are more likely to just lie. Stealthing is already common enough because men insist it feels better.
Stealthing?
Is that where they don't put it on or pretend it comes off or some stupid shit?
I'm... Yeah. Im Not ok now. My ex gave me way too many details about when she cheated on me and now I realize just how stupid I was staying with her as long as I did.
God fucking damnit. I mean I get it. Yeah, there's a noticable difference. But Jesus fucking Christ its rape at that point. I just
Goddamnit fuck men. Fuck all' the bastards that think they can do whatever they want with women. It's not right, I don't care how much hate I get for it. I might be a man, I might be straight as anyone can be. But no one deserves the shit that the patriarchy has created, and every day I seem to learn something new. It's bad enough that I don't conform to the "manly" image of being handy, strong, or arrogant, or sporty.
Yeah. It is that disgusting shit. Someone did it to a friend who does SW last year and it really fucked her up.
I ultimately cannot advocate for male birth control because I trust men so little that I think manhood should be abolished but that is more of a personal stance than anything.
Yeah. Honestly, I don't blame you. I have like 3 friends that are guys. Each in stable relationships. Each very respectful people.
Personally? Another reason I haven't had the balls to try and meet women is because of what "masculinity" is. It's wrong. That's what it is.
Just like no one can choose their identity or their sex assigned at birth, I can't choose the fact that I feel natural in my body as a male and im attracted to women. But I can't fulfill the image that is expected of men. Not amongst men, and not amongst women. If loneliness is the curse I get, then so be it. It's better than being someone I'm not.
