I've downplayed men's misogyny many times before because it's so very prevalent
THIS IS IMPORTANT. So many women think they have to grin and bear their partners sexism because “all men are a little sexist.”
You don't have to downplay and excuse a man's sexism because “at least it's a microaggression.” There are men out there who try to work against the sexist society that they were raised in, and they are empathetic. And if they mess up, they try to learn and fix their mistakes. Dont put up with sexist behavior just because you think you have too. I've wasted too much time before I met my wonderful bf.
Okay, that’s what I need to here. I do trust her, any advice on how I can get past this gut feeling? I hate that I feel this way and if I can’t talk to her about it, I just want to get over it but I don’t know how.
Ffs. What principle is that?
