I hate men
Let me begin by saying I love the phrase “I hate men” I live by it ,I stand with it and I will always justify it because there is literally no reason to be amused by anything that does value your existence.It is common sense.Why would I like something that kills me,rapes me,destroys my self esteem and takes away my humanity?Opinions are allowed to exist based on personal experiences .You hate eggs because you have had several foul experiences with it,I hate men because I have had several distasteful encounters with men?????What next????
More importantly;I love this phrase because of the desensitization it provides.When you are raised ;rather conditioned to appease men ;show up for men ,serve men ????Literally molded to encapsulate all the qualities of the woman who is “picked “ by men it requires a copious amount of effort to snap out of it .So “I do not care for men” has really been “I do not care to be picked by men” ,” I do not care to center my autonomy around the likings of men.” It is a reclamation of self ;a rewiring ,a reminder to set your own compass.
Moreover,to hate patriarchy is to automatically hate its depiction of masculinity .So when I hear fatuous statements like “Women claim to hate men but are getting married to them and are procreating with them” to insinuate hypocrisy I cackle in justification🤣because the memo is “haha you still need us” wrapped up in “if you hate men you wouldn’t interact with them”and that’s exactly what patriarchy does to men.For it to flourish ,masculinity must be needed,praised,applauded and anything that threatens the system breeds insecurity because it completely strips it of its power.
When women reject this version of masculinity through rebellious statements and phrases such as “I hate men”,”A man cannot do anything for me but open a door😭😭😭” Literal interpretations are made despite the fact that these ideologies have never been actualized .These phrases only exist within harmless tiktok comments and videos or female banter so it surely shouldn’t raffle as many feathers as it does.Ask yourself why you hold such great spite for a woman on the internet who does not clothe you ,feed you nor sleep with you for holding an opinion ????This behavior suggests two things :your entitlement to be viewed in a particular light or your in bred insecurity because your identity is contingent on a system.Both being consequences of the patriarchy on the male species.
This phrase is a powerful tool for the deconstruction of patriarchal laws for both men and women.So in an ideal world where we all embrace humanity and open our eyes to how harmful the patriarchal system is.We would all be screaming “I HATE MEN” because of what the particular depiction of “manhood “ demands from all of us ie everything from women and emotional security from men.To hold offense to this statement means to centre your worth around patriarchal ideologies and maybe you need to figure out your identity outside of that????No?



hating men will free you as a woman
A masterpiece quite literally
