“Women on base, you better be careful. Port calls, women in Asia, you better be careful. Because these guys are going to be wild animals and you better watch out.”

      Trying to blame this on all men (not sure why gay men are exempted?) instead of on Republicans is a great way to alienate a large portion of potential allies.

      Next time a woman says something stupid on Fox News it is time to blame all women?

        He was warning women to watch out, gay men usually aren’t a risk to women, even gay men with lots of testosterone.

        Many women (mothers, girlfriends, sisters, classmates) also play a major role in creating the warped masculinity that Watters is fantasizing about.

        So if you’re looking for blame, it goes all over the place, including on closeted queer men like Lindsay Graham and Pete Hegseth and Jesse Waters and Andrew Tate and Ben Shapiro.

        If you’ve heard someone taking about Rape Culture and thought to yourself “I don’t even know what that is”, you can always watch that video again and notice how all three other people on set calmly wait for him to finish, including the woman seated directly to his right.

          My dad mom is great example. My sister went to her for help with dad’s abuse and basically said just take it and pray for him. Just kept enabling it with no consequence.

        lmao you think Democrats aren’t rapists too? Brother they did a fucking holocaust, you think they draw the line at rape? They’re just quieter about it.

        This is absolutely an “all men” problem in terms of the culture men create and rarely speak out against, not literally in terms of each individual man.

          When the Democrats are in power, they block the Epstein files. When the Republicans are in power, they block the Epstein files.

            When did dems block the epstein files? They were in open cases so couldn’t be released.

            Maybe voting them out of power was a dumb decision
