It’s like the man who only starts caring about women’s rights after he has a daughter. Like, ok, I guess it’s nice that you’ve come around, but you couldn’t have exhibited basic humanity earlier? ffs you presumably had a mother, a wife/girlfriend, sister, female cousin, female friends, female coworkers so even if you require a personal connection, couldn’t you have gotten there earlier?
They don’t actually care about women’s rights, they just want to protect their property. And of course, they’re constantly lusting over young girls, so by means of projection, they assume that everyone else is too.
That’s fine. I didn’t dislike yours either. I just don’t know what point you were trying to make. Because my point was essentially “a certain kind of (predominantly conservative) man is very sexist and they only learn that sexism is Bad Actually after they have a daughter”. Which is a far cry from what you suggested.

I know an ultra-conservative who suddenly cared about gay rights after his daughter came out. I’m sure the timing was entirely coincidental.
That’s Leagues better than the alternate, at least they showed growth.
But theres a systemic selfishness about “I don’t care unless it directly affects me or my loved ones”.
True, but I’d also like to add that he only cared about gay rights for his daughter. The rest of them can get fucked, apparently.
How would gay rights for only a single person even work?
You must suspend logic in order to understand the conservative.
They are just selfish.
Things only matter if they affect them
Well, that’s certainly better than remaining homophobic and disowning his daughter, which is the story we most often hear, sadly…
God forbid we have empathy for those brought up in shitty environments and learn.
It’s good they they grown. But it’s more of a “about fucking time” rather than “thank you for becoming less of a cunt”
You might as well start chanting #AllMenAreMisogynists
Should I? I don’t think that’s what I said.
BTW, I didn’t dislike your comment
