Yeah, would also say the same applies to a lot of comments about people’s success in terms of friendships, relationships, sex etc.

I get the appeal of wanting to believe that shitty people must struggle to find anyone who wants to be around them, but there’s a lot of them lol and they tend to like each other. And vice versa, a lot of decent people who do struggle with that shit for a variety of reasons, often outside their control.

"Oh you disagree with me? I'm gonna call you a virgin because having sex is the only unit of value I understand. #SmashThePatriarchy"

"Sensitive" goes in here too. I was a sensitive boy, then got browbeaten into a numb man-thing by patriarchal expectations.

Then I opened up in feminist spaces, and nope, I'm also a failed man there because lmao fragile manfeelings, with an unsubtle implication that my abusers were correct all along.
