yes on one hand it is not an effective refutation of andrew tate’s ideology to say he has a small dick but on the other hand greta thunberg is 19 years old and literally never wanted to be a public figure and was @ed out of nowhere by a sex pest youtube personality i think she can say whatever she wants. get some perspective

like if i had 1 billion twitter followers or whatever and had had to spend years with right-wing commentators harassing me and making weird sexual comments about me and also getting trotted out to eb ignored at a climate summit every year like a show pony id be fucking killing and eating people at that point

One of my least favourite dialogue tropes is when a man tells a woman, “You can’t do that” or “I wouldn’t do that if I were you” and she says, “Why? Because I’m a woman and therefore too weak to handle this/can’t take care of myself?” or something to that effect and the guy replies with, “No, because everyone who tried that ended up with a bullet in their brain” or something equally reasonable and not gender-specific that paints him as the rational not sexist guy and the woman as an irrational paranoid feminist who searches for sexism in everything. This whole scenario is built on the idea that sexism is over and women’s fears and suspicions don’t have a leg to stand on. It’s also self-congratulatory pseudofeminism bc it’s supposed to make the viewer/reader/listener feel that in this specific work of fiction women are treated respectfully and as equal with men.
