I'm so sorry. Does that happen to you on a regular basis? By your boss? A co-worker? If you don't smile, do they call you a fucking bastard? Do they follow you and harass you if you ignore them? Are you afraid a woman will attack you if you aren't "nice"?

Have you ever rejected a woman? It doesn't end well no matter how nicely you do it.

Being a woman, no. I have rejected men, though..and I was called a fucking tease, a bitch, a cunt. I was stalked for several weeks by a man who was a *total stranger*, who was angry when he asked me out and I said No. He knew where I worked, and watched me through the window. /1

John, all due respect, when you call men "weak pussies", you don't sound like an ally. Calling them pussies is insulting to Women. Personally, I prefer "dicks", jackasses or arseholes. You seem pretty articulate. You can do better than that.

I get what you are saying, but I don't have to conform to your choice of language. My meaning is clear.

No, you don't. You are free to use what words you choose. Just be warned that using the word "pussy" to insult men doesn't make you sound like an ally, and you will be called out for it.

Yes. I understand that. I don't care if women like me or consider me an ally. I'm doing what I'm doing whether people like it or not. I'm guided by my own compass, not someone else's. But I understand what you are saying. And I do appreciate your intention.
