Men don’t even realize how controlling they are of women. They don’t even realize that they’re talking over you or cutting you off bc they’re so used to the authority they have over you. They casually, nonchalantly order you to do things and it’s just innocent nobility because they think as a man the right thing to do is to “take charge of the situation.” Unconsciously they don’t even realize that that means, the man knows better. They beg you because they’re used to getting what they want. They don’t realize it’s a sense of entitlement they really feel. An unconscious male will always be sexist because he has not yet questioned the natural, assumed authority he’s been given. He will always look down upon women no matter how much he thinks he praises them. Because once he really questions it, he questions everything.
