I really hate that y’all are making me defend cis men but I’m just really not going to sit here and listen to you tell me that all the men in my life actually just want to violently dehumanize and degrade me

So respectfully this is a pretty reductive take. Not saying Tolkien is uncancellable but there’s no way you’re comparing him to a character as mean & enthusiastically bigoted as JK Rowling. Cause yes Tolkien had views that were very much informed by his period & faith, but he’s…

even worse, some of yall speak as if consensual sex is something being done *to* a woman, as if she's not an equal participant even though she's given informed consent.
