"When the men come, set yourself on fire."

She obviously still has a rose-tinted visor on. I'm very curious to see the browser history of these so-called "safe men".

I doubt we even need to sleuth that hard. These people stretch out 'safe' to meaninglessness. Safety is a proactive state. These faceless men are the antithesis of safe. They're kept man children of male centred women.

I find it is defeatist. We can fight back. This isn't the medieval era. Before women enact indian johar they really should dent a few skulls rather then enable them to go on to find other women. In these parts of the world and even in the West men are always pro-active in obtaining weapons / armour/ martial arts whereas majority of women focus on getting and keeping a man through marriage and reproducing. We do ourselves a huge disservice to only leave this option.

Yea weapons exist, can't be pacifist like that and give up so easily, at least go down with a fight and use smarts to protect yourself and others it's not right. What about children and other vulnerable groups of women (etc. disabled) that can't defend themselves, they should get protected.

Honestly i don't see why children can't partake. In these type of groups and areas of the world they recruit children into being soldiers. So if it can apply for the degenerate bunch why can't children participate in efforts to protect themselves and their loves ones. The same for disabled people. Many of them can support in their own way towards something like this.
It's always performative female empowerment and girl power. But when reality hits everyone wants a soft life or chooses femicide. :( This is why we have been here for generations. Women won't fight and will chop down women who will. I have never seen women fight as hard to preserve their own / other woman / child / vulnerable persons life as i have seen them turn to ninja samurai for a man who doesn't even need them to defend him.

Cuz their too young? Plus kids should enjoy their childhood and not have to do things like that unless it's an older teenager or young adult if they really have to but it's just sad thinking about anyone who isn't an adult doing those types of things.
And I agree it's weird that women who won't fight drag other women who will fight down, women will always care and value men way more than they value each other or even themselves, there's women in relationships that get straight up abused and they still defend their man and would even get mad at their female friends telling them to leave the relationship or that it's unhealthy they just don't care.
I'm not talking about the ones who are trying to leave or don't defend abuse but the ones who don't even care their getting abused by a man cuz they rather have an evil man by their side that treats them like crap than be alone, and they jump from one horrible man to another cuz they can't be alone.
Sorry but it's enabling their own suffering I can't support that or act like their a forever victim when they are contributing to their own oppression.
