Because gifting only money for a birthday would be too easy..

Searching a few hours for inspiration and tutorials, spending too much money on material that I didn't even use, spending two evenings crafting.

Yeah basically. And yet, even good feminist men see it as “awkward” and don’t understand how terrifying it can be.

Every single comment is fucking ridiculous! Take the compliment for what it is or flip them the bird and move on. Enough is enough!

I found all of those links in less than five minutes, each representing a different woman who was murdered for ignoring or declining advances. And could link every word in this paragraph to another act of violence against women for declining advances. You have no fucking idea what it is like to be a woman in this world. Educate yourself.

Funny how you deleted this, @truthandbadintent, but it still showed up in my notifications. Ladies, this is why you never submit to (or even date) a man who isn’t a feminist and isn’t at least trying to understand what your experience is like in the world.

Every woman you know has a story she hasn’t told you because you are too much of a selfish asshole to try to understand. We all have stories of the man leering at us on the subway, the guy who hit on us at a coffee shop who tried to follow us to our car (shout-out to the male barista for taking note and walking me there), the guy who called us a fat ugly cunt when we declined to send him nudes, the guy who came into our home for a professional job and refused to leave because he was making a pass at us. It’s not rare. Not even close. Just because we aren’t murdered by every guy who makes a pass doesn’t mean we aren’t violated and intimidated on a regular basis.

Plus you never know which ones might become violent and which ones are “just kidding.” There is no way to know until it’s too late. And we all know it happens. We all know that’s how you get pulled into the van or the back alley. That’s how you disappear never to be seen again. Even if it hasn’t happened to us personally yet.
