Can girls/women just be allowed to enjoy things without being made fun of by society?
I saw on another subreddit a video of a huge line of what appears to be a sorority at a Starbucks because pumpkin spice dropped early or something. The comments are absolutely horrendous, making fun of girls for liking pumpkin spice lattes and other "basic bitch" things. God forbid girls enjoy simple pleasures in life. We are ridiculed for liking pumpkin spice, the autumn season in general, astrology, makeup/skincare, etc. You never see this level of bullying for men enjoying stereotypical masculine activities like football, the Super Bowl, them obsessing over the latest video game drop, whatever.
It just speaks on how pervasive cultural misogyny really is, even when politics aren't involved. As soon as we girls/women collectively enjoy something, it's considered stupid or silly and a waste of time.

Me waking up from the dead to yell at someone for making fun of girls for liking girly things source
I pretended to be a 14 year old girl to a 37 year old grown man who randomly messaged me on Telegram. Turns out, he's a married Christian who's on the board of a nonprofit.
He hit on me, said I was going to get him into "trouble" and that he wanted to see me in a bathing suit. He even sent face pictures to me! Idiot was using his legal full name on Telegram, too. I screenshot everything, sent it to the nonprofit's Facebook and his wife. Now we wait...

Airing the trial publicly was a very specific decision (and also an important reason for him retrying in the U.S after failing in the UK too!) source

Misogynists melting down over the fact that Scotland is ending period poverty
It is ridiculous the number of comments I’ve seen and heard about how “sexist” it is that Scotland is providing free period products.
I’m not even talking about the legitimate questions being asked about how a cis man is qualified to be the “period officer” or whatever. I mean just the number of outright misogynists foaming at the mouth over the thought that menstruating people in ONE country now have access to period products.
“i sHoULd gEt fReE cOnDoMs” (you can...go to a health department)
“iT’s nOT fAiR”
“LaZy wOmEn rELyiNg oN hAnDoUtS”
“nExT iT WiLL bE fReE BiRtH cOnTrOL” (I thought you wanted free condoms...?)
Like oh my gosh. This is a GOOD thing, the pink tax is a real burden, menstruation isn’t something “optional” really, and every one of these troglodytes was born from someone who menstruated. Get the fuck over it. Menstruation is a fact of life. 50% of the population does it. It shouldn’t be a big deal.
I don’t hear them whining over public restrooms providing free toilet paper. Why are they bent out of shape about free menstrual products? In a country they don’t even live in. (the vast majority of negative comments I’ve seen/heard are from Americans).
The answer? Misogyny. Pure and simple.
I’m so tired of this.
