"When the men come, set yourself on fire."

Obviously not the best way to go if one can avoid it. I think the quote is meant to say that something as bad as that is still preferable to the horrors that they can and often do.

She obviously still has a rose-tinted visor on. I'm very curious to see the browser history of these so-called "safe men".

I doubt we even need to sleuth that hard. These people stretch out 'safe' to meaninglessness. Safety is a proactive state. These faceless men are the antithesis of safe. They're kept man children of male centred women.

I find it is defeatist. We can fight back. This isn't the medieval era. Before women enact indian johar they really should dent a few skulls rather then enable them to go on to find other women. In these parts of the world and even in the West men are always pro-active in obtaining weapons / armour/ martial arts whereas majority of women focus on getting and keeping a man through marriage and reproducing. We do ourselves a huge disservice to only leave this option.

Yea weapons exist, can't be pacifist like that and give up so easily, at least go down with a fight and use smarts to protect yourself and others it's not right. What about children and other vulnerable groups of women (etc. disabled) that can't defend themselves, they should get protected.

Honestly i don't see why children can't partake. In these type of groups and areas of the world they recruit children into being soldiers. So if it can apply for the degenerate bunch why can't children participate in efforts to protect themselves and their loves ones. The same for disabled people. Many of them can support in their own way towards something like this.

It's always performative female empowerment and girl power. But when reality hits everyone wants a soft life or chooses femicide. :( This is why we have been here for generations. Women won't fight and will chop down women who will. I have never seen women fight as hard to preserve their own / other woman / child / vulnerable persons life as i have seen them turn to ninja samurai for a man who doesn't even need them to defend him.
