Hrefna (DHC)

Men stepping up to defend themselves as a group and go "well actually it isn't _our_ fault" is quite a look.

Way to make a point, dudes.

If only women vote then the map looks a bit like this, but do tell me how "no no no this isn't teh mens fault."

We can _also_ "blame" a variety of other groups if we want to get detailed. There are a bunch of ways to cut this (based on the few exit polls we have that ask the question, just at queer vs. non-queer groups is almost hilarious).

But men, you aren't off the hook here.

@hrefna it's so... Revealing? The need to defend a group that you belong to because of circumstances beyond your control. Reveals an acceptance of the logic behind so much bigotry.

Any way you slice my identity into groups, those groups suck. White? Suuck. Cis? Suck. Male? Suuuck. Straight? Suuck.
And yet, I do not feel overly sucky, because I am not my group(s).
