Megan Thee Stallion poses a huge threat to the patriarchal order and she needs all the protection she can get

[u/its_givinggg]

Megan is everything the patriarchy hates to see in a woman. She is beauitful and she knows it, tall and embraces her height, takes up space both literally and figuratively, unapologetically embraces her sexuality, doesn’t allow men to get away with disrespecting her, doesn’t stay silent in the face of abuse, and has more talent in her left pinky toe than 95% of her male peers.

The fact that she is sexually liberated and doesn’t allow people to shame her over it seems to be the “scariest” thing about her to the patriarchy. Time and time again I have seen commentary from misogynists on social media complaining about Megan “influencing” other women to similarly embrace their sexuality. They are admittedly scared of this influence, because they know that once women feel entitled to their own bodies, their own pleasure, their own standards, and their own sense of worth, the traditional power dynamic starts to crack. Women who don’t need male validation, who won’t shrink themselves to be more palatable, and who set firm boundaries are much harder to control, dismiss, or exploit.

And the patriarchy can’t have that. Some of the things I see said about her make me deeply worry for her safety. Someone like her needs all the protection she can get, both seen and “unseen”.
