    The problem is that for many women, sex always runs the risk of pregnancy, and they are actively making it extremely dangerous for us to be pregnant.

    so then don’t have sex because it’s not economically or financially tenable. Not because “men are the scum of the earth”

    There’s nothing wrong with a principled opinion, there’s everything wrong with a pointed attack founded on shaky grounds.

    The left really fucking sucks at rhetoric, that’s one thing i’ve noticed.

      Who said men are the scum of the earth? Nothing in my comment was about that and if you’re talking about the original 4b movement I think I made it pretty clear that I’m not on board with how it’s being interpreted or approached by the groups of women I’ve seen discussing it post-election.

      But even leaving this response is in defiance of 4b, which I’m still choosing to participate in on my own terms, so it will be my last. I don’t know why you’re intent on blaming imaginary women for your hurt feelings, but it’s not a good faith argument. It shouldn’t be this difficult for men to figure out why the 4b movement appeals to women (and the men and non binary folks who support them.)
