I’ve never fully understood the mindset that compels some guys to be so awful, but some guys really are shitheads. It does seem largely social, but it’s also extra enticing to cis guys over other folk. Being told you’re special and deserve to be in charge for being yourself is a seductive message, just like the argument for white supremacy or ultra nationalism.
It doesn’t mean all men will get roped in or that any need to stay in, but it is still a real threat that it isn’t your responsibility to solve. Keep yourself safe before sacrificing for others.
The affirming experience of being harassed as a woman!
