So very close to identifying the patriarchy and that men are victims of it too, and then wild miss at the end. sigh so, so close.

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I could tell from mthe outset that this was going to be sexist, probably the fact it took the stance of "men do x" over "men also do x", but I didn't anticipate the final line being outright misogyny.
There is less pre-modern art by women because women were either censored or indoctrinated into roles where they couldn't create, which is the primary sin of the patriarchy.
There is a myth of men knowing love because the myth of the powerful, rational man doesn't accommodate for this, and what perpetuates that myth? That's right, the patriarchy again.
It's heartbreaking to see someone see through the patriarchal myth of masculinity and arrive at the conclusion that men are objectively better at creation and love than women
men don't universally conform to a stereotype
therefore they must all confirm to a different stereotype
also women bad

Anon is still an incel :O
told men don't feel, don't love, don't care
Yes, that's what feminists mean when we speak of toxic masculinity. Societal enforcement of rigid gender roles are bad for women and men.
This is basic, foundational stuff in modern feminism.

I think a few people here have to remind themselves:
If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
