"We found a woman that agrees with us. Please be gaslit into submission like the hivemnd you are"
As an AFAB I can't tell you how many times I got the "Most woman don't care about womans rights" talk from the men in my life. They will try to make you feel crazy. This is why I get so fucked off when people say things like "why does she put up with that?!" she puts up with it because growing up female is like being brainwashed into a cult. You're made to feel stupid and hysterical for speaking up.

Often this is sadly true (41% of American women identify as 'pro life' for instance) and I think it's because, as you said:

I've literally had young women tell me unprompted that they identify as "Anti feminist", as if I'd be impressed by it or some bs. I know plenty of young women that go to chuches that I know have sexist beliefs.
