i wonder if a single man that’s ever reblogged a “respect women” meme has ever actually respected a woman in his life 

like really… dig deep down and take a close look at yourself. have you ever held a woman in high esteem? have you ever been able to admit that a woman might be better than you? that she might know more than you, have more experience than you, have a better perspective then you? can you put aside your pride and defer to the expertise of a woman and admit that she is right if she corrects you or has a better argument than you, or does it sting? 

do you value the friendship of women, or are you settling for “just friends”? can you be close with a woman without thinking about sleeping with her? can you take interest in her life and hobbies and interests even if they don’t have anything to do with you directly, whether you are dating or not? are you able to take a woman’s feelings, thoughts, and concerns seriously, or do you brush them off as frivolous or overreacting?  

can you really look at yourself and say that you genuinely respect women or is it something that you had to filter through 14 tiers of irony before reblogging as a joke
