🚨| Leaked Rhaenyra line from Season 3:
“I may appear to have the weak and feeble body of a woman, but I possess the heart and spirit of a king.”

These still exist. You're just not invited to them, like how you wouldn't have been back then 😭

When men refuse to give women leg hair or armpit hair in survival movies but they add a 10 minute graphic rape scene for "realism"

Men: women expire after 25.
Reality: that’s when adult brains fully develop and when we stop falling for your bullshit

Sometimes male anger at ‘women getting special treatment’ reminds me of a gorilla experiment. One gorilla gets a banana every hour. The females next to him get one every four hours. Then someone decides to be ‘fairer’ and gives the females a banana every two hours instead. The original gorilla? He flips out. He’s still getting his banana every hour, but it feels like a loss because his advantage shrank.
That’s how a lot of men react to basic fairness for women: not as justice, but as theft.
Community note
This post refers to a fictional “gorilla experiment” that does not actually exist.
Original study used capuchin monkeys, did not divide subjects by sex, and observed their responses when unequal rewards were given for the same task.

it’s crazy that 95% of people just want a nice normal life on our beautiful, already abundant planet where they can have their basic needs met and cute experiences with their loved ones and then we have these 5% of evil, narcissistic goons at the top fucking it up for all of us

"Male privilege isn't real because men get sent to war". Sent to war by other men. Specifically, by rich men.
That's an example of classism. In order for it to be misandry, it would have to be women sending men to war. Your anger should be aimed at capitalists, not feminists. Hope that helps.

So you admit that men's greatest fear is being treated like they have treated women? Hmm

i was thinking about overall reaction to both ttpd and showgirl and tbh taylor can never win, if she writes in a poetic way, it’s too wordy and complicated, if she writes in a fun, pop way, it’s too simple and has zero depth; and it’s the same people saying both of these things

Hot take: Bridgerton would not be as popular if it wasn't for the "diverse" casting. If it was an all white show it wouldn't nearly have the same hype as it does today. This show was a success off the backs of POC and the production does nothing to promote their POC leads.

unpopular opinion but your political views are more than opinions, they’re a reflection of your values, your empathy, and the way you see humanity.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but when you're done eradicating trans people and immigrants, you will still be broke, your life will still suck, and you'll still be a horrible human being.
