Fake Feminism & Gender Equality: Women Enjoy Mothering The Same Men They’re Sleeping With
“Treat men the same way you treat women. Hold men to the high standards you hold women to with no apology.”
If you are on social media, namely TikTok and Instagram, you may have seen a trend where women are pretending to be masked robbers in order to teach a man a lesson about strangers. Usually the caption will read, “When he invites me to his house for a first date without getting to know me. And now I gotta teach him a lesson about strangers.”
Sure, the reels appear innocent and even (kind of) funny, but why does any woman feel obligated to do such a thing? Is it payback for a man not wanting to get to know you properly? Because we all know that people get harmed by those they know well, even more so than strangers.
So again, why are women always trying to teach men life lessons as if they are little boys?
It makes me wonder why some women, namely feminists, view men as their equal when they insist on dumbing themselves down to either appeal to the opposite sex or teach the opposite sex a lesson. I mean, if men were your equal wouldn’t you treat them the same way you treat women? Wouldn’t you expect them to be as intelligent and well-versed in many areas of life as women are?
