(Anonymous) 2014-06-04 12:36 am (UTC)(link)But I hate this all or nothing movement. That if you say, "Well, not all men are like that." You are automatically labeled a misogynist. Fuck that. I hate that all or nothing movement. It's poison to any progress. It sets up an "us vs. them" mentality that will only set us back. I want people to see me as an individual. So, I refuse to put people in a group.

(Anonymous) 2014-06-04 01:19 am (UTC)(link)At the same time I am a victim of sexist crimes from those nasty men out there so I completely understand why people are having the mentality they are. If I talked about some of the trauma I went through and the response I got was "well I'm not like that" (which has happened to me several times) it starts to get old because OF COURSE you don't mean that person it's not about them.
I guess what I'm saying is that I am really not sure where I stand on the whole thing because both sides have good and bad points.

(Anonymous) 2014-06-04 03:58 am (UTC)(link)The people using the hashtag do have an "agenda." Their agenda is to raise visibility of the shit women routinely go through at the hands of society. To point out that "not all men" is true but dodges the point spectacularly, and that women are usually not the ones saying or implying "all men" in the first place. To stand up and say that this is a legitimate problem we as a socitey have and it shouldn't be ignored. To let people know that Elliot Rodgers did not come out of a vacuum.
