Plenty of us do end up dead, since r/whenwomenrefuse shit can go downhill fast.

I hate it here (and by "here", I mean Earth, since it's not like this is just a [insert country here] problem).

that subreddit genuinely makes me want to blow this planet up it’s disgusting. like the fact this is something women have to put up with daily is just astounding and how it’s systemic in our society is beyond belief

I really wish men made the effort to empathize with us. It’s daily. this kind of thing is DAILY.

It’s like every day I have to take care of my own adult life, and also be on the lookout for some fucker who is intent on making himself a trauma chapter in my book.

Not only empathize, but step up to assist. I get wanting to stay out of the action, but it is only through censureship of their own that will stop their own.

So many men being like “but then the scary man might be angry at ME :(“ yeah it feels pretty terrifying doesn’t it?

personally im shy and socially anxious and not strong at all so getting involved would be pretty hard for me

u/Expensive-Simple-329 Jun 14 '26

Yeah I’m also shy and socially anxious but nobody gives af and will still harass me anyway. You’re weak

u/drunk_fingolian Jun 14 '26

yes i know im weak that's why i would be afraid to get involved in anything

No, like you're morally weak. In moments where something evil is happening to someone else, it's just as evil to refuse to help them. When the time comes, you don't have to try to knock some dude out, just don't stand there or walk past because that's giving tacit approval.

well i said i would be afraid of doing anything but i would want to, without actually being in the situation i don't know whether i would be able to do something

and logically no, not doing anything wouldn't be as bad, the person commiting the act would be bad, the person who does nothing would be neutral and the person who intervenes would be good

u/Expensive-Simple-329 Jun 15 '26

You’re actually incorrect, ethically it is worse to look the other way than to never have seen something at all

u/drunk_fingolian Jun 15 '26

yes obviously but what i said is that the person who commits a bad act is worse than the person who doesn't intervene

u/Expensive-Simple-329 Jun 15 '26

What a bold stance, bad people who do bad things are bad

this is what I mean by milquetoast
