5 Common Forms of Sexism That Men Face

1. We are told we can’t be raped.

A lot of people, specifically girls, believe that a female can’t rape a man. Why? Because he has to have a boner in order to have sex. Some would even say that if a man has a boner, he isn’t being raped. This is just plain wrong. It is the same as saying that if a girl is wet during rape, then automatically it isn’t rape. See how stupid that sounds?

2. Women can hit us and get away with it.

If I slap my girlfriend because she cheated on me, then I am an abusive and terrible person. I agree with this. But if a girl hits her boyfriend because he cheated on her, she is a strong independent woman that doesn’t take shit from anyone.

3. That we are ‘lucky’ to be raped.

If a 15 year old boy has sex with his 30 year old teacher, his peers will say that he is lucky. But if a 15 year old girl has sex with her 30 year old teacher, she was raped.

4. We are told to suppress our feelings.

If my dog just died, and I am sad about it, I am told that I’m a pussy and that I should get over it. But, if a girl’s horse just died, then there will be 30+ guys standing in line waiting to cheer her up.

5. We are told we can’t have preferences.

On dating sites, it is perfectly fine that girls do not want to date guys under 6 foot. But we are sexist and evil if we say that we don’t want to date girls that are above 250 pounds. Hell, if I reject a girl because she is too fat, I am shallow. If a girl rejects a guy because he is too skinny, she just has standards. Why am I not allowed to choose what I am attracted to?
