tbf i'm slightly jealous of his male privilege and the fact he likely hasn't had so many of the 'great' experiences we get due to being sexually harassed by men regularly since a young age.
i don't think that's what he's referring to though.
apparently noticing that men are jealous as hell of our ability to create other people with zero need for them is “cope,” according to some women on this site
There is absolutely no doubt in my mind whatsoever that men are extremely jealous of our ability to create life with our bodies.
It just seems more about sex and arousal than life creation.
I think women who don’t believe it can’t fathom that men would envy the inconveniences, pain, fear etc not realizing that for men (who are less cautious) those things are inconsequential and the goal / achievement is worth the risk. The idea that motherhood is a monumental achievement seems like a cope to them because they emphasize the negative aspects (which are considerable) of women’s reproductive role.
The idea that the real thing is jealous of the imitation is a delusion only the male mind could conceive
