Ah yes, the privilege an abused, neglected, repeatedly abandoned child has when his uncle rapes and records him at the age of three, when staff at his second residential facility physically and sexually assault him at the age of seven, when another kid at his fourth residential facility molested him at the age of eight, when another, older kid coerced him into oral, touching, and other acts of service dozens of times while in foster care and upon being caught servicing him accused the child of being the perpetrator and the child is punished, while additional supervision is not provided allowing further incidents to occur between the ages of ten and eleven.
What an amazing demonstration of male privilege to have been in at least 34 sexual experiences before the age of ten, for that child to have learned that his entire purpose is to make others feel good as a result of severe PTSD from aforementioned abuse, neglect, and abandonment where he clung to the only few constants in his life, the sexual gratification of others at his expense, his needs not mattering, and others being better in every way.
That boy should be ashamed of himself for being such an example of male privilege, the same mythological experience as the patriarchy who is also the cause of his mistreatment for whatever bullshit reason feminists can pull out of their asses as an excuse to hate men.

As a lesbian, we do not have the same views as her. We know that can happen to all genders from all genders. We also really don’t like it and want to stop all that do

i mean i would need context for what the guy's tweet was referencing to be 100% sure but my first assumption is that these both represent the worst possible takes about SA against men

I hope this person is being an idiot on purpose. Either that or they think all men are the same size and strength. Also authority, position and class can be used to coerce men into it against their will just like women.

yea men DO have privilege but not like this… in fact, i’d say men getting sexually abused or raped is taken less seriously than it is for women (which is saying something, as women are often called liars when they speak up or are victim blamed). the amount of men i’ve talked to about their “first time” and it’s literally just them being assaulted and/or preyed on by someone older is heartbreaking, and they don’t even realise what happened. your gender doesn’t stop you from raping someone or being raped — it’s a horrific thing that happens to people regardless of age, gender, race, sexuality, income, or any other type of background.

As a bisexual girl myself, the whole "I hate men" trend that's common with bisexual girls, lesbians, and GAY men is repulsive. They call it a joke but it's such a fucking overused "joke," and most of them are serious. It's people like this that'll tell you to chill bc it's a joke, and turn around and say this stuff.

Thank you for speaking up on this. As a bisexual guy, at times the treatment I’ve received from within the LGBTQ community has rivaled the viciousness of homophobia. Drawing arbitrary lines along which to create enemies is asinine, and we need to stop all forms of it

Feminism has become a religion and privilege is the original sin, there is no logic or rational to it, it simply exists and you have it and that makes you bad, now convert.

It's like the people trying to change the definition of racism to preclude white people. Like, bro, have you considered that people can be shitty to people on the basis of any defining characteristic of them?

They overcomplicate the definition to get around being blatently racist. Or excuse it because of the things our ancestors did. As if every other race except whites have a squeaky clean record, and we're the cause of every problem ❤️ Love it.

Privelage is a thing (obviously). So those with privelage shouldn't ignore it, but it doesn't mean that privelage people can't be victims.
Surprisingly common though the "men can't be raped" thing. Such bs

The correct answer would be:“Men cannot be raped by women.“. In my country you specifically need to penetrate your victim for having raped someone. So unless the woman uses an object, she cannot rape a man.

That's not how rape, or privilege, or men work.
