It's like the straight millennial equivalent of the boomer "wife bad" meme. I'm halfway convinced that A) the straights are not okay B) people are still letting social pressure push them into unwanted relationships, C) people don't know how to control their dicks and so they wind up in toxic relationships because "she make my peepee hard" and that's all that matters.
Not just social pressure, but economic pressure these days as well.
A) Straights are not ok. We have millenia of horrible, toxic, abusive, patriarchal relationships instilled into every aspect of us. It's so bad the homophobic usually fear other men treating them the way they would treat women. That's fucked up.
B) See A.
C) See A. But a little more complicated, because I know 14 year old me, and not until 25 year old me was his brain completely finished growing. 14-22 year old me made decisions that he didn't have the ability to see or understand yet. I feel bad for him. There wasn't a good structure in place to teach him better.
