phallocentric reactions to women who choose celibacy
i don't know if yall have been to the celibacy sub, but the amount of non celibate men who post butthurt comments under posts made by women, either practicing or considering celibacy is hilarious.
There was one post where a woman was talking about her own self growth, coming to terms with herself, and one comment was a married guy, telling her she had to avoid relationships alltogeher because men's PP, men's feelings get hurt, men view sex as the culprit for a relationship, yadayada.
This is not at all what her post was about, and doesn't enlighten her as to whether celibacy is the right choice for her. How is this comment even relevant ??
Not to mention it's false. Many couples aren't having sex. Just because as they grow older, most people let themselves go, and love evolves from physical to a more understated, more stable form of "love". people also don't have time or don't feel like they have the libido because they're trapped between children, obligations, responsibility, work, etc... so many things can happen in someone's life, and that's not always an indication as to whether the relationship is doing well if people aren't having sex. And some people are okay with their partner being abstinent if they share the same religious or spiritual beliefs.
>"If you stay celibate, i strongly urge you to not start a relationship..." "Men generally want a sexual relationship as a gage to how well the entire relationship is going in its entirety. If you feel like you can't or don't have a desire to express yourself as such then in my opinion it is better to go it alone without added expectations."
The person who made this statement isn't even celibate since their profile clearly states they're married.
Married man who have nothing to do with celibacy, don't even practice it, feeling threatened by a post by a random woman who conteplates celibacy as an option ? make it make sense.
There are other passive agressive comments by men under these posts all the time whenever a woman makes a post. It's very enlightening how as soon as you decenter males and don't let them use you for their sexual gratification, some of them feel as though it's an attack on them.
