[a sign reads FEMINIST CONFERENCE next to a closed door, a blue character shrugs and says…]
I don’t care

[next to the same door, the sign now says RESTRICTED FEMINIST CONFERENCE WOMEN ONLY, there are now four blue characters desperately banging on the door, one is reduced to tears on the floor, they are shouting]
DISCRIMINATION
SO UNFAIR!!!
LET US IINN!!
MISANDRY

    I remember when right wingers would get mad that women’s shelter wouldn’t take men or there’s wasn’t an equivalent for Ben. I’d tell them “we’ll start a men’s shelter”. Turns out people want to control other people.

      I’d tell them “we’ll start a men’s shelter”.

      Never forget Earl Silverman

      Earl died by suicide on April 26, 2013, shortly after selling the shelter due to bankruptcy and ridicule.[5][6][7]

      “Feminism is for Everybody” is a lie, and Earl’s life proves it.

      This shit still pisses me the fuck off.

        Lol true story vibes. I doubt it was 1 guy and I’m pretty sure women would be receptive to plight of men

          I simply (shamefully) couldn’t remember his name. Earl Silverman

          You really wanna read up on what happened.

            Yeah looks like earl went broke running a men’s shelter nothing about feminist destroying him. Kinda just basic accounting, but shows that Earl was alone in his venture and not even other men helped or got involved
