to clarify, the only person’s opinion of you you should truly care about is your own, it is valuable to consider others, but you decide for yourself and only you.

    not only men, nobody’s opinion of you means anything unless you want it to. that being said, I find that it’s most often men who offer unhelpful, or even offensive advice unsolicited. if a man happens to get offended by my unsolicited opinion by seeing this then all I have to say is ~~ <3 ~~ :3c

      I jus… I rlli want to believe that that many manly peeps aren’t evil.

      I wana believe that this is just me projecting everything bad [capitalist, selfish, unhelpful, not empathetic, unreasonable, loud, aggressive, angry, insults more] onto something, and not axtual reality. Like - it can’t be that clear cut…

        Evil is a religious word, they likely aren’t inherently irredeemable but they have probably been conditioned to have certain beliefs about what they should and are allowed to say/think/do which they need to unlearn in order to not be harmful to others.
