"This thread was started because a man in my mentions insisted I not speak for all women by discussing how afraid we are to reject men," Elizabeth, a Scotland-based author, wrote. "This thread was my point."

According to inews.co.uk, the recent deadly school shooting in Santa Fe prompted Elizabeth to broach the topic of rejection. "Santa Fe was only the most recent story in a long line of stories where the media blames a woman’s rejection on a man’s murder spree," Elizabeth reportedly told i. "But that’s a simplification of the issue. It’s not just rejection. It’s a toxic aspect of culture in which women are seen as prizes, possessions, objects. Their desires and feelings are not considered."
