A lot of times when ppl talk about a woman’s strength or the strength that women have collectively, they’re actually talking about women’s capacity to take a lot of shit. Which has actually been foisted on women relentlessly and continually for centuries.
So like. It sounds disingenuous to me. Essentially ppl are saying, Nice job absorbing the physical and emotional violence consistently hurled at you since birth. As if there were the option to escape it. As if the attempt to escape it weren’t met with even more violence.
“This woman is so strong. She forgave her husband’s infidelity. She sacrificed everything for her family.” The takeaway from that is that for a woman, societally accepted strength involves behaving as if your own needs and feelings and agenda are meaningless in comparison with everyone else around you.
It’s false, hollow praise. It’s more manipulation.

The other day a white customer was mimicking the way a black co-worker talked over the phone to another co-worker, and when he asked her to stop she said “oh I bet your black too” and he’s like nah I’m white, you’re just being awful and I’m hanging up
It’s that easy
When people think empathy w/o personal association or investment is strange, it’s because they have none.
Seriously how has it become such a foreign concept nowadays to empathize with others even if you aren’t the one being affected by it?
