Today while walking these things happened:
1- a man agressively/sexually barked at me on the street
2- a young boy, maybe 12 or 13, called me a sexy dark haired lady when we crossed paths on an empty street
Tell me we don’t need feminism.
I dare you.
Male privilege is “I have a boyfriend” being the only thing that can actually stop someone from hitting on you because they respect another man more than they respect your rejection/lack of interest.
The Sociological Cinema
There was actually research that was done that found that women who used an “I have a boyfriend/husband” excuse to reject unwanted sexual attention and harassment by their bosses were more likely to be left alone than those who used any other excuse (including “I’m not interested”)
Because men respect another man’s property (and that’s how they see us) than a woman’s autonomy.

That’s the thing, though — a lot of feminist men also say stuff like “She’s somebody’s Wife/Sister/Daughter” Right, because “somebody” is a man and his wife/sister/daughter is his and that’s why we need to protect them. Because women don’t matter unless they’re involved with a man.
