Wow, my first morning of waking up & thinking "RIP my mentions." Have I arrived? (I do not want to arrive.)

I'll be as succinct as possible in re. why I find Blanchard's comments on AGP so insulting:
I've struggled against suicidal ideation all my life. This is because nothingness so often seems preferable to all the weight, the pain, confusion, uncertainty, rejection, the exhaustion of life.

(I employ several coping mechanisms, this is not a cry for help.)
The vast majority of men -not just AGPs, not at all- view women as less than fully human adults.

Mirrors, movie screens, oceans to sail, fields to plow, children to discipline, helpless maidens, blow up dolls.

Voids.
When men want to escape the pain of being human by pretending to be what they think women are, their escapes are predicated on viewing us as non-humans.
When still other men say we cannot possibly understand the drive to escape the pain of personhood & the relief in achieving some fleeting release, they too say we aren't people.
When a man tells us we cannot possibly understand how pretending to be their fantasy of us is an escape to them, they are telling us we couldn't possibly understand the absolute disdain with which they view us, in which we swim every day & so MUST understand so as not to DROWN.
I don't blame men for developing AGP. We are all brought up in a toxic soup of misogyny.

I'm simply saying this:

1) AGP is VERY EASY for women to understand.

and
2) AGP cannot function as a satisfying fetish (much less an identity forced on women by proxy) - if you truly understand & accept that WOMEN ARE PEOPLE.

Not men's mystical orgasmic voids.
