I literally feel like my ex could have actually murdered me if he was drunk and delusional. I am blessed I am out of that relationship. I have been scared of men since I hit puberty and honestly I find myself scared all the time even though I am 32.

I do not fear men but I acknowledge that they aren’t our allies. They aren’t worthy of our trust because as soon as they get it they’ll abuse it. Despite wanting to find a true partner for life I do believe women are better off with each other in a Gynarchy world. Half of the planet is ours to rule and men can go ahead and ruin the other half. I’m positive their side will be struck with famine very soon because men value profits more than actual humans. In Matriarchial societies there was never famine and crimes was never above 5% because women ruled over everything And do it better.
Men are scary. Patriarchy has conditioned men to hate women. 95% have some level of internalized misogyny. Some more than others. But it comes out in a variety of ways.
Same! Can't go anywhere or do anything outside my apt without that lingering fear. And having CPTSD doesn't help either 😕
fear is a gift.
i also wouldn't want to live in fear all of the time.
discernment seems like a valuable skill to learn, as well as developing one's own intuition; both can maybe be the halfway point between living in terror all of the time and being blissfully ignorant.

It comes down to being able to vet effectively. Pre selection is key.
since your break up how have you handled fear ? i let it cloud my judgment for a long time; even interesting with HVM who showed interest, character, and other green flags.
