I am starting to develop a genuine hatred of men.

When I was 10 years old I was groomed on the internet by men on Omegle.

My dad hates on women’s choices constantly developed his own theory called “the Prince Charming complex” and has cheated on my mom with multiple women some even being prostitutes.

My uncle cheated on his wife with his nephews girlfriend and ruined our entire family. None of us talk to each other anymore.

My mom’s back is so badly damaged from the beatings she took at the hands of her ex boyfriend that was 19 and she was 14.

The man I lost my virginity to told me he used me for sex because he wanted to “feel something” and get over his ex.

My ex sexually assaulted me.

My ex made fun of my body hair to his brothers after we broke up and taunted me asking if I was going to “let his brothers hit”.

It appears everytime I meet a man who I think might respect women he turns around and does something that makes me realize he doesn’t. I don’t want to hate men and I’m trying my best to not, but fuck it’s hard for me not to. Of course I acknowledge surely all men aren’t this way, but my hatred is deeply rooted and I don’t know how I’ll get over it.
