This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

I have not seen the evidence you've seen. Maybe your social circle is particularly fucked up? Maybe mine is luckily less judgmental? ... What you described is common for college and early twenties, in my experience, and less so after that.

I’ve seen women in their 30s and 40s engage in it.

It’s not restricted to higher ed or younger ages in the least.

I’m now in my fifth decade, and no longer care to be around that kind of drama anymore, so over the last decade and a bit I have taken pains to distance myself from those social circles that engage in it.
