edwardspoonhands: cassandracroft: So this is what trust looks like. Funny, my first thought was “So this is what the patriarchy looks like.” Yup. This is how women are supposed to trust men. With their lives.

Woman : “Hey, can we just… Drop the bow?”

Man : “WHY DON’T YOU TRUST ME I’M NOT A VIOLENT GUY, YOU ARE INSULTING ME THINKING I WILL HURT YOU!!!”

Woman : “No it’s just… Well I’m afraid.”

Man : “But why? Look at me, I’m not afraid. And we’re equal, look, we pull the bow together.”

Woman : “I think we’re not equal, you can kill me with the arrow and I can’t.”

Man : “What? So you would like to be able to kill me? You’re so agressive!”

Woman : “That’s not what I mean, we were talking about equality : you can hurt me, I can’t.”

Man : “Of course you can. You can hit me with the bow if you want.”

Woman : “That’s not the same thing, it will never kill you.”

Man : “Oh, you always complaining, stop victimising yourself! Do I talk about the difficulty of holding the arrow? Of the responsability it giving to me?”
