    starter tip: stop talking about women as if they don’t have any agency, and stop using them as a reasoning device in your unnecessary posts

      @froztbyte @angrystego

      To be fair they all too often have less agency about getting pregnant than they should, and getting pregnant is something women may fear or dread depending on the circumstances such as “was it rape” “is he abusive” “that’d really fuck up my career that is finally getting going” and “am I in Texas or Florida or Georgia or…”

      Also, accidents happen, probably even with birth control defense in depth.

      What? I still don’t understand. Would you mind genuinely eli5 to me what from my post makes you think I talk about women as if they don’t have any agency? I’m asking genuinely for patient explanation.

        no thx, nobody here is your dad and I don’t think anybody needs to explain why

        I think for many women “being inseminated by” IS a big thing.

        is a weird fucking thing to say in the context of the post you’re replying to
