      or is it intended to constantly neg you to the point you become a hollow shell of a woman, overly eager to please others out of fear for hypotheticals, no longer capable of recognizing good in others so you’ll settle for the abusive relationships you’ve been conditioned to expect?

      I’m using your words, in your phrasing. If I’m misrepresenting what you said, then you might want to reexamine what you said.

        You should read it more carefully. I’m speaking about the motives of those who spread fear porn, not the aptitude of women as a whole.

          Ok, and claiming that news pertaining to the rape and murder of women by men who were spurned is manipulative is better in what way?

          Painting news organizations as having the overall goal of negging women into paranoia and abusive relationships doesn’t even make sense. If anything, their goal would be clicks, not sewing chaos in that way.

          And anyway, insinuating that the problem in the original post is the news fear mongering to condition women, and not the pervasive problem of violent men assaulting women, is itself insulting to women. Which is the point I was originally making.
