This is such an important point, and you’re right, it does need to be discussed more. And why isn’t it?

Liberal feminism is such bullshit that it’s thrown women under the bus and won’t even address any uncomfortable truths. It’s too busy celebrating porn and patriarchal religions as being liberating for women. 🤮

We really have gotten so used to women’s physical and mental suffering that it’s normalized.

Not only do women attempt suicide more often, we’re also much more likely to be murdered by our own partners than men are. Women are statistically far less safe in our own homes than men are.

Men are mostly killing each other and demanding women in their lives do emotional work for their mental health issues and their own self-neglect. These MRA idiots certainly aren’t helping themselves mentally, much less helping other men— just adding more work to women’s pile, whining, and blaming women for men killing each other.

Most women are busy trying to help everyone in their family every single day- keeping the kids alive, keep the house running, caregiving for elderly parents, supporting everyone emotionally, and often also working outside the home. Their own physical and mental health comes last.

We’d have to completely overturn this patriarchal structure that uses women as a beast of burden in their own families before their mental health can improve. On a global scale, the prospects are still so dismal.
