How to Avoid a Midlife Crisis | Clarissa's Blog
They’re not only infantile, but victims of self-deception, because they want to pull you in and get you to sympathize, claiming that it’s all about equality, equitability, and allowing others to have a fair say. But, really it is about you having to take it whilst they emit their tantrums.
It’s the same thing with the Rebecca Watson “elevatorgate” scenario. It’s about males getting their feelings hurt, but it seems impossible for these guys to just accept that “okay, it was hurtful for her to rebuff a stranger’s advances, but let’s get over it already.” They can’t let it go. Feelings were hurt. So, then they have to start their weird projections and make out that women can’t handle the big, wide world, because their feelings might be hurt. I’ve had these little males yell at me that I should “stop acting like a female stereotype” and just accept that a troll is an anonymous stranger who means you no harm. That was simply for visiting a site about “elevatorgate” and making a very general, non-offensive comment there.
So, I’m supposed to accept the pile on by all the trolls telling me, in one way or another, that I’m a female stereotype and treat this iimpartially, as if they were just simple observations from “anonymous strangers”?
I tell you, men will make you pay a very hefty price for getting their feelings hurt.
