Men are not inherently violent, predatory, or dangerous. Any feminist project worthy of the name needs to acknowledge that this behavior is taught. The idea of men being biologically predisposed to being abusers or rapists is actively used against abuse and rape survivors / victims
(does the phrase “boys will be boys” ring a bell at all to you?) and will never, ever work in our favor.

This is a good take but the majority of people saying that men are inherently predatory, violent and abusive are men’s groups, fundamentalist Christian groups and other of that like. Mainstream and even a lot more radical feminist thought do not accept this idea.

Unless there is some feminist project actually supporting this, which is wild.

I’ve encountered multiple self-labeled radfem bloggers on here who either imply this sentiment or state it outright. That’s the context of this post.

yeah this has been a radfem/TERF talking point for like literal decades lmao it goes hand in hand w/ transmisogynist rhetoric. also there have been quite a few radfem/TERF groups whove alligned themselves w/ fundamentalist christian groups too, as both of them hav pretty much more or less the same violently redunctionist + ahistorical view on gender/sex 👀👀👀
