Men


Im not a feminist, Not even close. Im just a female in the world Who's had more experiences than most. Once, ok thats just gonna happen. Twice, ok odd coincidence. Three times. What is going on? Men expect so much of women. If we have a bad body, then we shouldn't even bother. If we have a good body, then its not their fault. That doesn't make sense. Do they not think about their own mother. And if she was exposed to assault. How hard is it to use common-sense. "She was asking for it" But you were the one who did it. Men need to control themselves And stop blaming the women. We try to fit into their standards, Just to get used and raped Without any escape. But we have to keep quiet. Don't even try it. Shut up or it will only get worse, and a fourth time will hurt.
