My years as a sex worker taught me that men are very emotionally starved people. I don’t say this in a “boohoo male loneliness woe is them” way. But even I am still incredulous how many men would pay just for emotional intimacy. Men would book champagne rooms just to cry.
All those jokes men make about not knowing their “best friends” full name, job, favorite foods, etc are a cope. Men YEARN to be closer to each other and the people around them. They literally force themselves not to be.
Special needs boys like this should only have male caregivers. They should not be in the care of someone they can overpower. But of course the men of these kids are often nowhere to be found, having walked away and left the kid with their mother.
It’s been very bizarre to grow up when “I hate my wife, don’t ever get married” was the dominant manosphere attitude and now watch it shift to “rejecting marriage is the downfall of society”
that one radfem who said a lot of men are only attracted to the performance of “woman”, and you can remove the woman entirely and they’ll still objectify whatever is left
"Afganistán":
Porque ante la masiva ausencia de mujeres, los musulmanes empezaron a ver con buenos ojos a los travestis en su país.

Micro feminist things I do:
- Only hire female service workers if I can
- Tip female lyft drivers/instacart shoppers more, even extra if they’re BW
- Tip female servers and bartenders more
- Patronize woman owned bookstores and cafes as much as possible
I genuinely believe men and boys almost always have an innate sense of who they can and cannot physically dominate. I’m really curious to see how severely special needs boys’ temperament changes when they have male caregivers equal to them in size.
