I’m starting to get scared of the rising hate speech against women. I see it everywhere on Instagram. Blank accounts calling us disgusting, vile, whores, subhumans. The list goes on and there are so many.
I don’t understand this obsession. If they hate us so much why don’t they just date each other?
I’ve also noticed a rise in intimidating looks in real life. Not to toot my own horn but I’m at least conventionally attractive and getting stared at in public is just normal. But lately I’ve noticed something different. Literal hate stares. Men looking at me with this intense, cold expression. Like actual hate from a distance. It’s extremely intimidating.
Outcasted men are very very angry right now and that makes me anxious.

You’re right to be concerned. We are in uncharted territory in the West in terms of women being outspoken about their rights and standing their ground in their private and public lives. The consequences to the status quo are already becoming clear in terms of fertility rates, but for the moment the world isn’t yet talking about why beyond “cost of living”.
The only backstop we have to a total regression is women at all levels refusing to go back.
I want to get sterilized so badly. Have an appointment for a consultation Thursday. It’s two hours away tho so I’m getting cold feet
A lot of this hate speech is also disinformation that incels are picking up and eating like freaking candy. We need to come together and find a way to combat this and to be louder and smarter than they are.
I read tarot and I typically never ask about the state of the world or what’s to come…but I felt compelled to recently and my reading was basically saying that things are going to go backwards for women- but ultimately, we are the ones who will end up turning things around. It also spoke a lot to women’s voices and potentially journalist or whistleblowers. I just thought it was interesting and somewhat unexpected- I obviously knew our rights were being taken away but it was kindof comforting to know that ultimately, we have the most power and potential to save us from this mess.
That’s why they work so hard to suppress our voices and rights. They only try to keep people down who they’re intimidated by.
If you’re in the United States, we are becoming a very mean society, and it’s only going to get worse. I would suggest learning to defend yourself, and protecting your assets. With Christian fascism set to dominate for the next several decades at least, women in particular will be in physical, social, and financial danger.
I used to be conventionally attractive before I buzzed off all my hair. 10/10 highly recommend, it makes me invisible to men and improved my life considerably
I have enough to say on this subject to write a book.
But I will just say this: there is very real pain and fear in young men today this is largely ignored by society. For all the pain and fear I had growing up as a girl, for the most part it’s at least been addressed. Sure it’s been a fight, and many problems still persist. But I at least feel heard. We have girl power, girl boss, metoo, etc. It is often addressed on a societal scale, and even if it isn’t, I will always feel heard by other women.
Furthermore, being angry at men for the way they treat us works in our favor to a degree. It protects us and provides a net positive for many to not engage in romantic relationships with men. For men, the angrier they get at women the worse their problem becomes. That is why they are spiraling so fast.
Finally, men are not given the tools to succeed in life. I know that’s shocking to hear as a woman, seeing men get free passes for assault or worse. Seeing them rarely being held accountable. But those aren’t good things. They hurt men just as much as they hurt women. Look at where those boys end up whose parents (moms especially) never hold them accountable. They end up in miserable marriages, have terrible relationships with their children, and often can’t hold down a job. And on the fringe of this are incels who have not been equipped with how to have relationships with women. They were not in control of their adolescence. Their parents and society put them in this position and now they’re hopeless of ever getting out. If you’ve ever tried to sit down and teach someone social skills, it’s fucking impossible.
We’ve spent decades trying to raise girls the way we raise boys and we should have been doing the opposite, raising boys the way we raise girls. But that’s a much bigger ask when the ruling class is desperate to keep young men angry and isolated.
Oh my goodness I’ve noticed it too and it’s pretty scary ngl. The amount of times I’ve been shoulder checked when passing a guy on the sidewalk as of recently has definitely increased. Pretty common experience as an ugly, not white woman but wow it’s gotten worse. Also the drive by insults that are either racist or misogynistic. I’ll be walking and a guy will call me an “ugly whore” or whatever and the other men around will do and say nothing. I’ve had women stand up for me though which was very nice and brave of them. The world seems like a more hostile place recently
WEAK MEN – seriously it is the root of all the hate
I would have that job if that (insert race of choice) was not here. (not because I am incompetent or unqualified)
I would have gotten that promotion if (insert sex or sexual orientation here) if they were not here. (not because I didn’t work hard or was not ready for the promotion
I am poor / stuck in poverty / because (insert educational class or immigrant here) they are taking all the jobs. Not because I haven’t tried to better myself
I don’t have anything I want – and what I want is to have servants and a mommy figure to do everything for me. I just want to do what I want, when I want to do it – which includes sex, and not have to be a decent human being to earn it. Thus hatred of women
More and more women are going to leave the teaching profession because of how the misogynist brats treat them.
I’ve noticed It’s less hate than it is objectification. which makes it no less worse.
Go figure, as a voting bloc, we’ve twice said, “no girls allowed” now and for all the bluster i hear from so-called allies, they also exclaim “both sides are the same”.
Sorry if this is downvote worthy. I just wanted to voice my opinion, i suppose. Because it hurts to see how things are going.
Our world ruled by men;
Where the richest man is a nazi;
Where his BFF is a pedo;
Where we are in the midst of the 6th mass extinction; This is our world, ruled by men…
Sipping my coffee this morning,, reading The Ministry for the Future and these words came to me.
