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.

    If you see something like this and get angry at women, you have a problem.

    At best it’s a problem with reading comprehension. At worst, you’re worried that things like this could get in the way of your murdering-women hobby.

      My problem with this post is exactly the same I have with any broad assumptions over a poorly defined group: taken as fact, they’re false.

      Of course it’s meant to make a point, and a very valid one. But I’ll point out that there are many places in the world where a young woman can go out for a walk at night without fear of never being seen again, and it’s not because there’s fewer men, so perhaps we should focus on the conditions to achieve this?

        I’ve been told my whole life tbat i can’t go out at night alone because it 's unsafe. Why is it unsafe? Because there are men out there. Apparently it’s ok for the men in my life to say other men are dangerous but it’s not ok for me to say that men are dangerous. A plague on both your houses. You are all unsafe.
