tw: femicide, personal trauma, misogyny
being a woman sometimes is like you're walking through a minefield where you have to bypass the mines carefully to avoid triggering an outburst.. I mean I honestly don't get the stereotypes. like the notorious label and myth that women are "too emotional" for crying is overused and outdated bcs they're ignoring the reality that the "less" emotional and so called cool, calm, logical ones are the ones causing so many ruins. expressing feelings is completely a normal thing. unlike those with fragile masculinity who cannot handle a rejection. the irony is wild. like who's the irrational one here? but anyway...
how many women have already fallen to their outbursts? well, you know what I mean by that. this is what has been going on for decades. the past few years have been really crazy here with a high number of tragic femicides following rejection. just recently a 16 year old who went to school for a tuition class was brutally targeted while no one was around (source: here) after allegedly rejecting her classmate's advances and the worst thing happened
this makes me sick to my stomach at how much these femicide headlines just prove the terrifying reality that even for saying "no" is not enough to keep us safe. personally the recent case triggered my trauma and it makes me so sooo mad just how inhumane a person could be to do a horrific thing to another person
instead of telling women how to tread through the minefield, society should teach their son not to plant the mines, bcs this happens when boys are never told no, and they become entitled to take whatever they want
the world was supposed to be a safe place. no one deserves to be treated beyond what they're willing to give. if someone says no, then you know they have set a fine line. and overstepping that line is why we're in this terrifying reality rn
