No, I don't actually believe I'm ugly... lol
In this episode, I revisit a viral moment about a women who felt insecure because she was never approached by men when she goes out with her friends. I share why I don't believe that male attention is worth having and what I do with it when I receive it. This episode explores, desirability politics, pretty privledge, beauty standards, and decentering the male gaze.

This makes perfect sense!! 3:25 hits home for me because, from my personal experience, I came across guys before who just wanted to sleep with me but I would not do it with them. I’m still a virgin to this day because I’ve never believed in giving MY body away to a man I will NEVER marry. There’s always a possibility I could get pregnant or an STD and I’ll never know his background or body count history. Most guys want access to our bodies and have babies left and right but they don’t want to be married. I’ll NEVER put myself in a situation I can NEVER get out of like having a baby with someone who won’t commit to ME. If I was a single mom today and the potential sperm donor is living his best life, I would have been told to choose better. I enjoy this type of content because it motivates me to stay single and childfree. I have NO time for one night stands or deadbeat fathers. #bestbirthcontrol #childfreeforever #singlebychoice #decentermen

All of this! You escaped all the traps!! While I’m not a virgin, I totally agree with your position. They’re really just out here looking for momentary physical satisfaction, not genuine partnership, so it makes sense to keep your distance. I also get the ick that they can just get a woman pregnant and go!! It’s so upsetting! Once you understand their behavior, it really is the best birth control!!

⁠​⁠@@ibuymyownrosesI’ll also add that the majority of things in this world are NOT free. My p***y🐱 is NOT one of them. He got to earn it AND put a 💍 on it. Okurrrrr?!?!

All of this!!!! I wish I would’ve never opened my legs to any of these men. But I know that my story will help other women but bump their heads like I did. I’m focused on building community with likeminded women so we can support each other in this Decenter Men transition.

I was always considered ugly within the circles I was in during my teens and 20s. Not only did it spare me years of toxic relationships that the pretty girls couldn't seem to avoid, but I also enjoy the freedom of being single and childless. Many of the women I know who married and have children are unhappy. Also, the pretty girls hate aging so much, freak out at the slightest fine line, etc. I'm turning 40 in August and am excited about it. For me, life just goes on as usual 😊

I just won't go to nightclub. I'm staying at home, avoiding men. I won't talk or won't look at them or I just call the police on them. One time I just screamed at a guy,. because of ptsd caused by men. I don't care if he is being nice. They all have bad intention.

Yeah, “nice” is just the wrapping paper. It doesn’t speak to the character. I had to learn that. They’re all nice when they are trying to convince us to give them what they want.

I rarely get any male attention so I can freely walk anywhere in peace. I dress like a bum to be invisible

I love your take on this. You made it clear that male validation isn't worth it at all, and the issue of "attractive" and "ugly" is therefore meaningless. I am really trying to understand this and internalize it. However I grew up the ugly friend, and it affected even my friendships with other girls, and it took a big toll on my self-esteem. I think it all boils down not to the attention itself but to the gratification it causes in the reciever. I believe that was the reason that woman spoke up in the first place. Also that is what I feel was missing from your take. Yes, male attention isn't something valuable or something you are missing out on, but how should girls/ladies cope with a society that disagrees with them and places immense emphasis on looks? Self-esteem and self confidence don't come from nothingness and the surrounding environment will definitely affect it. It is easy to dismiss male attention when you constantly recieve feedback that you are pretty and worthy (from men or other sources).
