Isn't it strange how every woman knows someone who's been sexually harassed but no man seem to know any harasser?

Random Old Memes and ✨Stuff✨

Got sick of bigots, and pedants, and trying to figure out if something is “meme enough” to count, and of feeling like I’m spamming other spaces, and very quickly of the lemmy UI too (still love you blahaj.zone!) so am opening my own space where I can make my own rules and post my collection in peace. ❗BE WARNED: SOME OF THE IMAGES YOU SEE HERE MAY NOT TECHNICALLY BE MEMES❗ Now that we got that out of the way, let the infodump commence! Expect a mix of slightly outdated: mostly leftist (but never tankie) content, many cats, and some general old memes I’ve collected over the years. There are many, so will try to mix it up! Update: looks like 🐝Beehaw🐝 have banned this magazine. If you want real leftism rather than "nice" (more like "unchallenging to the status quo and the comfort of libs") leftism, I guess you'll have to follow from elsewhere!

Well it’s not like they go around advertising that they are harassers and rapists.
The statement also assumes the numbers are equal, but predominant amount of assaults are perpetrated by a minority of people. So you have a small number of abusers who victimize a large amount of people.
Them not advertising it doesn't mean they aren't there, and that if only you cared enough to know the signs or even just listen to and believe women when we literally point them out, you would see them too.
That second part is also factually and statistically simply not true but I honestly don't care enough about educating you to do your research for you.
I think you are missing my point here. “No man seems to know” is precisely because because it’s hidden. It’s not that they don’t know, it’s that they don’t know that they know, because people don’t advertise their acts.
As for statistics, general crime statistics in everyday category point to a minority of people perpetrating them, unless you are saying that this is somehow different from all other behavior.
Thanks for the patronizing instead of “educating”. I’m sure your that will help to actually address the problem.
Right, I'm missing the point of my own post, it couldn't possibly be you missing the point, which has already been explained plenty, you just don't like what you hear, but that's a you problem.
Also I don't owe you shit, go educate yourself you self centered ass
