    (cw misogyny) Not AP, but my gov/econ teacher went on a long rant one class about how he knows the reason misogyny exists,

    and that it was because women give birth, and that because of that their bodies need to be biologically weaker and need to be taken care of so they can take care of babies, and so it was only natural that men were protectors, and thus it was only natural that men get upset with women when they provide and then only get more mouths in return. He wasnt explicitly saying women deserved misogyny, but his whole rant was steeped in that attitude and justified with bioessentialism.

    Very normal thoughts he had visible-disgust

      Man knows he's a misogynist and is justifying his own misogyny as "natural".

      Honestly sounds like the same shit Musk and the manosphere is on. All obsessed with their seed and impregnating women.

        Yuuuup he was a shit person iirc. Idk anything specific, or if he tried anything, but he gave major creep vibes. and he would kinda bully the girls in his class and treat the boys with much more respect.

      ah yes, in keeping with the storied tradition of using on teenagers the arguments that adults will rightfully ridicule you for voicing

      genetic essentialist...misandry...? Idk?

      Had a weird day in one HS bio class where the teacher put some emphasis on how "since men are born with XY chromosomes they are genetically inferior to women who have more genetic material in their XX"

      Just a weird memory your story dredged up
