at the risk of sound like bill bennett, where exactly are the men in these boy’s lives? the fathers? coaches? anyone genuinely concerned with their lives?

agreed. rape culture on steroids doesn't happen overnight.
this has been brewing and growing for ages. thankfully, there are dads and uncles out there who are NOT having it. i see 'em and i appreciate 'em.

Riiight! The reason the incel and red pill movement thrives is b/c misogyny, patriarchy and sexism been existent. Nothing new at all!

That is true but only to an extent. i think those (coaches, teachers, etc) genuinely don't care about kids to tell them anything.

Another reason i laugh at the idea of women not being accountable. "Boys will be boys" has been the norm for most of history. Women have had to dress/talk/act like saints to avoid assault and even then they can't. But it's women who lack accountability? It's an unserious argument.

I had a whole argument with a man because he'd told me this story about a man getting killed by another man, right? And he said it was the first man's LADY'S fault because she set him off by speaking to the 2nd man.....................

A nigga with TWO daughters.

That's why i don't argue when i hear "women not accountable" because they want women to be accountable for the actions of MEN.

Desafortunadamente, this is family. His COUSIN and I had a SIMILAR argument when, after a young GIRL was killed by a grown man for not taking his phone number, he had a talk with one of his THREE children...guess the gender.....

joybella.bsky.social•6 days ago

I don't speak to either of them without the kids present anymore, but yeah. This shit creeps up and out on you. Men you'd think would know better absolutely do NOT.

I remember back in the day, crack era nyc day me and my older brother had to tell some dude's FATHER that if he doesn't tell his kids to chill around our cousin both his kid and the dad were gonna be statistics. All cause the pops didn't care his kid was pestering young girls.

You can’t even do the “where are the Fathers” thing with this. Most of the dad-age guys at the gym I go to are on the same type of manosphere bullshit.

Thank God for sobriety and my headphones

Theres a yt vid out there with Jam and Lewis talking about how that so g came about and it was absolutely purpose built for this moment.

Facts.
I was very lucky to have the father i did. I've been saying the same thing about that adolescence mini on Netflix. It's an important convo to have, but it comes down to what's nutured at home. I heard someone say, kids don't do what they're told, they emulate what they see.
