    I'm guilty of saying "I have a bf" as a knee jerk reaction to random guys invading my space like inviting themselves to sit with me or something ngl.

    But just as much I don't bring my bf up around guys who give off a particularly energy. I'm scared they'll lash out if they find out I'm "not theirs for the taking" and instead i just get away as quickly as I can.

    Every friend i have who dates men has a story like this. a-little-trolling (god I realise that sounds like him lmao)

    Don't know how I feel about having to engage and teach feminism to the later group when I'm scared to even be honest around them.

      I think it should be the place of more privileged and less vulnerable people (namely cis men) to do these things. And regardless I really hope the article isn't referring to hating misogynistic men in general, just using insults related to enforcing toxic masculinity.

      If the article is trying to make a case against hating or isolating oneself from misogynistic people in general than it can fuck off. Hate is justified with these kinds of people
