I’m asking this question because I’ve heard many people claim that the term “pussy shaming” is a way to make women feel guilty for having sexual intercourse with their boyfriends. I understand that it makes it sound as though it is about sex, but in reality it is about using physical manipulation to get a woman to do a specific thing. What are your thoughts on this?This was my first thought when reading this post.The post in question is about the concept of the “pussy shaming” and I think it’s great. I think it’s the most powerful way of bringing men’s issues into the conversation.I like how you said “using physical manipulation”
I also hate the idea of “pussy shaming” because it’s like saying “oh look, if I tell you to have sex with me, you won’t do it, do you think that’s better than what I’ll do?” Like why is this even a thing? I’ve been told that this is a form of “punching up” a woman because she’s embarrassed to have sex with a woman.Like why the fuck is this so fucking common?The thing is, the whole thing is just really gross and objectifying. Like the idea of “punishing a woman” for having sex, or “punishing a man for having sex” are the exact same thing. The idea that women are supposed to be ashamed of their bodies, that men can go out and do whatever they want with them, that women have to be ashamed of their bodies is a clear way for objectifying. It’s disgusting. It’s misogynistic. It’s disgusting.
