cause these boys do grow up thinking they own women. they do grow up being dismissive and mansplainy and rapey.

and these boys do grow up taking any kind of challenges from women and rejection as justification for their "i'm a nice guy but...." bullshit and posting about men's rights online.

and young women to grow up to be less likely to think of themselves as capable and as leaders.

these aren't universal, but they're extremely common, and they come from exactly these mundane interactions that people take for granted. how the fuck else do we think people are growing up with these attitudes?

these are all ordinary documented facts based on decades of research. and we start signaling to these children their place in the world yoooooooung.
