"Patriarchy hurts women… always, first, worst, and Epstein’s files make that clear in ways we’ll never unsee.

"Patriarchy hurts women… always, first, worst, and Epstein’s files make that clear in ways we’ll never unsee. But it also eats men alive, just differently, just slower, in ways that turn them into fuel for the same machine. The same system that told Epstein he could buy girls told a generation of boys that women owed them something, that their loneliness was a conspiracy, that rage was easier than asking for help."

"The reason young men are lonely—that is (to name the specific problem that is usually indicated whenever male loneliness is mentioned), the reason they are having trouble getting sex partners they want—is that, if you listen to the young men suffering in this way, they still believe that they are owed a female as a possession, and because of feminism," (continued in /4)

"women increasingly do not have to be a possession anymore, so more and more women are opting out of seeking sex and companionship from patriarchal men, and patriarchal men are very upset and enraged (and, increasingly, violent) to learn that they will not be given what they were told they are owed."

"This is a problem. What I am inviting you to contemplate is how frequently it is treated as a problem for men, caused by women, to be solved by everyone else. I'm inviting you to contemplate how seldom it's being treated as a problem caused by men who have never even started the work they need to do on themselves."

A good piece for this thread...
"A few days ago I saw an Instagram reel of a young woman talking about how she had been raped six years ago, struggled with thoughts of suicide afterwards, but managed to rebuild her life again. Among the comments – the majority of which were from men – were things like “Well at least you had some”, “No way, she’s unrapeable”, “Hope you didn’t talk this much when it happened”, “Bro could have picked a better option.”
