Being a male mean avoiding eye contact with women because they might think we are ugly

hmm yes being a target of abuse is equivalent to thinking you’re ugly

this is literally it. male idea of oppression is women not being sexually available to them when they want them to be. that’s why whiny internet men cry so much about the friend zone. this is literally it for them.

“Men are afraid that women will laugh at them. Women are afraid that men will kill them.” - Margaret Atwood

awfully relevant.
