This is how it happens for all hierarchical systems . And yes marginalized women experience it more, if no visibly different women are there, then “social standing” it’s NOT just men who do this or do this to gain standing Everyone learns to offer up a woman to sacrifice for gain

I read somewhere recently that toxic masculinity needs these bad men so that the good guys can "stand out" and look good. Like, if a "good guy" saves a woman from assault, he really expects for her to be his prize.

That saying about how the people in power actually want you to go thru the proper channels because they created said channels and they know that the system will never actually work for you. It's called systemic discrimination for a reason.

Also take into account moods because a lot of the time, you no longer want to eat what you had planned on cooking. Some days it is about ease and comfort because everything affects what you can make at the end of any given day. It affects your energy, your physical limitations, etc.

2 Screenshots from the movie "Amélie" (2001): First, a brightly lit candy stand filled with colorful lollipops, candy apples, and ice cream cones, with subtitles reading “September 28, 1997. It is exactly 11 a.m.” Second, Amélie rests her head with a peaceful smile against a man’s back as they ride together on a motorbike, the background blurred in motion.
