Every. Time. Every time someone on the internet mentions violence against women you can be damn sure there is some dude just waiting for the chance to tell them they aren't oppressed because their male friend got their wallet stolen once and that's totally the same thing.

    Also dudes don't tend to be harassed in ways like stalking and being followed home. Or having a group of dudes walking behind you discussing what they're going to "do" to you.

    When I was a 15 year old girl I remember being at a party and a guy loudly banging on the bathroom door I was in while I was peeing. He was screaming at me to let him because he "knew I was into him" in for half an hour before he gave up and left. That's not exactly a crime but it still fucks you up. Especially as a kid.

      I hate constantly being surprised by more ways society, men in particular, make life hard for women or people who look like women.

      And that story is just awful. I can't imagine going through that.
