Thankyou!! That’s exactly how it feels when he defends his stance, like i was wrong to protect myself instead of some monstrous boys. He may as well have asked if I did anything to deserve it. Feels like the same level of blame and disregard for the survivor and none for the perpetrators.

Amazes me that masks can claim til the cows come home that men are monsters and he’s a woman so not a monster, but then fail so hard at even pretending to empathise or sympathise with an actual woman.

It’s a disturbing trend I’m noticing amongst discussions online around rape. More and more women are being told to think about how dehumanising it is to misgender their own rapists, or condemned for refusing to drop their guard around males because that male might feel badly about it. No idea if I’m just seeing it more or if it’s happening more but it’s scary.
