Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.
Our Rules:
-
Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.
-
No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.
-
Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.
-
Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.
-
No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.
Sister Communities:

Whilst I knew them empathizing was what came naturally but thinking back on some of those cases, those dudes were not the greatest folks. Like of course they were basically kids being like 19 on average but I'd bet money some of those girls were doing it cuz these dudes were aggro
I mean generally yeah, asshole aggro dudebros is anecdotally most of what I've seen as well.
But, I have seen it happen to a few genuinely good natured and well intentioned, but just colossally naive and/or astoundingly brainwashed/gaslit guys as well.
