i hate this phrase so much

like, "real men don't rape!" ok.......... then how do u explain rapists...... ghosts?????

how to be a real man:

-identify as a man

- that's it

- ur a real man

PERSONALLY, i don't mind the whole "boys do this, men do this" because it's like yeah ok boys are children and men are mature (well, they're meant to be but try telling that to my dad sometimes) it signifies that grown people do that like i'm not a massive fan of that phrase but it doesn't piss me off to the same extent

but saying someone isn't a real man because they did something..... no....... they're assholes..... wyd.......

it just makes me so confused??? so suddenly to be a certain gender you have to pass a test???? weird, i don't remember taking that test when i grew a vagina in my mom's womb!

attached is a really good poem by these two teenage girls who are very good slam poets i would 10/10 recommend watching "somewhere in america" as well

i'm also listening to blurryface rn it's so good!!
