  1. #Today I sat in a meeting where the ONLY man in the room (and also the only non-recruiter) spent 90 minutes lecturing a room of 10+ year recruiting veteran #women on how to write a job description and read a resume.

    Is it Fall of the #Patriarchy season yet?

  5. I'm so glad that you, a man, has come to my posts to explain to me, a criminal justice student with 30 years experience in prison and police abolition, how the US death penalty works.

  6. A common thread in the way men discuss things here is levelling the charge of "misunderstanding" at someone (who, from what I've seen is invariably not a man). There's this assumption that their ability to comprehend something is inherently correct and if they don't easily understand a point being made they won't struggle to think it through, they just decide its a problem with the writer.

    Babe, that struggle is where the learning and discovery lie.

    Me:
    I think you're wrong because [evidence]
    Him:
    You misunderstand.. [repeats same thing ad nauseum without evidence]

    ..or..

    Me:
    [posts]
    Him:
    WHAT YOU HAVE POSTED IS CONFUSED
    Me:
    You mean it's confused YOU?
    Him:
    NO, IT IS A CONFUSED POST
    Me:
    You mean YOU find it confusing?
    Him:
    NO IT IS CONFUSED AND ILLOGICAL WITH YOUR SILLY GIRL WORDS

  7. I'm seriously considering adding "no cis men comments" to all of my posts because I'm fucking DONE with the mansplaining here.

    It's worse than anywhere else I've ever encountered.

    I wish you could make posts so that they could be responded to by people who aren't men.

  8. I don't understand cis men.

    I clearly state on my Fetlife profile that I'm not interested in talking with people who work in policing, military, security, etc.

    But they message me anyway so when I ask them if they work in those sectors and they say yes, I tell them that I'm not interested.

    They get all offended - "you're shallow for judging someone based on their work! " (as though they don't judge someone based on their body size and defend it as "just a preference"..

    And when I insist that I'm not interested, they keep messaging me.

    Like dude, my guy, I said I'm not interested.

    I'm so uninterested that I specify my disinterest on my profile.

    Do you think that haranguing me for the next 3 hours is going to reify my disinterest or make me decide I definitely AM interested after all and beg you to fuck me?

    Because I know which it will do...
