      This is v good. It's *so* normal for girls/young women to feel this way/have those experiences (the norm, really, at my math-science high school!), but so taboo to admit to having experienced thishttps://twitter.com/LuxAlptraum/status/989163486730211329 …

      After the Elliot Rodger shooting I wrote a piece about this for Nerve (it's since been scrubbed from the internet along with all the rest of Nerve but lives on on http://archive.org : https://web.archive.org/web/20140602101212/http://www.nerve.com:80/love-sex/true-stories/confessions-of-an-awkward-teen-girl …)

      Eh, I checked out at "men are told the world owes them sex and love" in the Twitter thread

      I'm talking about the article itself, although I agreed with much of the thread when I read it a few days ago

      I'll take a look at the article. I do agree the idea some "incel" men have that any woman can get laid any time she wants is absurd. But that's a small & weird subculture, & most of those men have personality disorders

      Agreed that "incel" is an aberration, but there's definitely a cultural notion that women have the option of sex at any time, maybe not universal but extending far beyond that subculture

          Do you seriously deny that it is on average easier for women to get casual sex than it is for men, along with differences in sex drive (desired number)? The thresholds to "would" are different. The overall picture that emerges is a male sex deficit and a female romance deficit.

          By the way, it is interesting to note that redistribution centers on material goods, that means there's a disparate impact to the disadvantage of male resources. Informally and through taxation/government services, the transfer is from men to women. And women feel entitled.

          Basically [still talking averages], females differentially invest in personal relationships (and feminists complain about emotional labor) and reap the benefits (some of which they share with their men). Naturally that can't be redistributed.
