Same old story - a room full of men - beware whenever men get together to decide things for others. I wish people would notice.

Could be. They are ghouls and we shouldn't be caring about them. They don't care about us. We can never talk with them. They can never know us. Why do we hold these people in any of our thoughts let alone dote on them and talk about them incessantly. You know why? Because it keeps them going. Attention is like electricity - we power them, we give them energy. They would be empty husks if it weren't for the attention they reap from us. It's up to us to fill our lives with more wholesomeness.

It really is up to the women to take a stand against tyranny or unfairness but it's not just women. Though men wouldn't fight wars if women didn't sanction the men to go to war. If women brought their sons up to repudiate war. We are such a violent society. It's not women's fault but women now can change the trajectory as we have at least more power than in the past, although womanliness is being eradicated daily. The world is run by men but if women stood up for ethics, things would change drastically. Also I think the reason there is so much misogyny is because mothers have their sons circumcised. This practice is barbaric and puts in the minds of boys that mothers cannot be trusted to protect children. It really needs to stop.

Yes who hasn't. I've also been the target of toxic masculinity but most women give that a pass. There are many who've been the target of bombs and guns too - I guess whichever way we look, there's a predator lurking. That's because we live in a distortion of (toxic) masculinity, it's men who make the rules and this is what causes all our dystopia. Don't shrug it off as though women are the cause, they are not, but women can stop it and turn it around. At present we are all caught in the net and it's our time to get out of the trap. It is very, very, psychological and subliminal.
