(115,173 posts)99. Exactly. And all of this leaves out the hate. The anger and resentment and hostility.
We see copious amounts from these types of men, whom I refuse to pity or sympathize with, and IMO it is the lack of entitlement which explains why we don't see that from women.
Pornographers know, and they exploit it. Once again I can't find the list of quotes from pornographers explaining that their audience wants to see women treated badly because they want revenge on the girls they couldn't get in high school, the ones who rejected them.
Sick stuff, but at least they're honest, I guess.
