How to help make women feel safer and more comfortable in public spaces.

“[Emily] May says men can help women as a whole by ‘asking them about their experiences and offering a safe space to talk’ — she adds that many men are shocked when they find out how bad street harassment really is, and that ‘male outrage can be really comforting.’ It can be nice to know that someone gets it — and is angry on your behalf.

[Holly] Kearl says ‘the most important thing for men to understand is that most women perceive public places differently from most men’ — but by being decent and helping other guys do the same, men can help women in public feel more like equals.”

“Act Normal”
wtf

Men don’t have a responsibility to make certain paranoid women “feel safe.” If you don’t feel safe in public, consider counseling. That’s not a reasonable phobia to have. Take a self defense class or arm yourself with a gun or mace. Goddamnit. Men aren’t out to rape you, psychopaths are. Oh, and women rape too. How about all women act a certain way to make men and young kids feel more comfortable?
This kind of stuff fills me with such disgust that I scarcely know what to say.

First, ladies (and I use that term loosely), the idea that I should have to do such a thing as “act normal” or “announce myself to you in public” simply because I’m a man is the vilest of personal insults.

I’m a straight man, sure, but I’m not a rapist. In fact, what makes you think you turn me on at all? Most of you can’t cook, you don’t read, you have about as much personality as a bar stool, and you wouldn’t know femininity if it came up and slapped you in the face. Hell, most of you don’t even smile! Don’t worry, sweetheart, raping you is the last thing on my mind, trust me on that.

Furthermore, if you need me to announce myself while we’re in public so your frightened little bunny hearts can remain at ease, you don’t deserve equality with me or anyone else. Get a grip.

Secondly, I don’t ever want to hear a feminist tell me their maggot-gagging philosophy is about equality ever again. As long as there is ONE WOMAN who thinks like the two broken condoms in the article cited above, you can take a long walk off a short cliff.

Third, Valerie nailed it. Excuse the vulgarity, but you bitches need help.

By the way, I assume the women - and again, I’m just guessing when I use that term - who endorse this revolting concept would be perfectly fine with wearing giant signs around their necks announcing when they’re on their periods. You know, something to make us men feel safe and secure… perhaps “Warning: Psycho Bitch Attached - Do Not Feed!”, or something similar.

Seriously… just when I thought the world couldn’t get any stupider.
