The infantilisation of abusive men needs to stop
I’m not sure if infantilisation is the correct word, but if a woman speaks up about her shitty experiences with men hundreds of people will chime in to say “those aren’t men, those are boys”.
This rhetoric is so reductive & makes it easy for bad men to avoid accountability. People need to start acknowledging that bad men are grown MEN who know exactly what they are doing. I’m sick of seeing this.
