And it doesn’t actually have to be tears to be called tears. Some women don’t cry (it’s an art I have not mastered, and have no wish to).
In fact, it seems to be more prominent in accusations for women who are not crying, but who are standing up for themselves, speaking out about injustices, trying to deal with trauma such as rape, or just existing anywhere in the world without being ‘special’ enough to count.
I agree, you women should not let yourselves get pushed around by this Amelia Zohore man any more!
I am in the old school where racist stuff is bad in either direction. When the trend to mock “white tears” started, it didn’t sound any better to me than if people were mocking “Black tears” or any other racial group’s tears as unworthy and even laughable.
Maybe we can be nice to each other instead of changing whose turn it is to be allowed to be mean?
Now I have to wonder what those other items just out of the photo have to say about whiteness and being able-bodied.
To borrow a phrase, “what is our children learning?”
Shorter version: Women are so gross – cut off your breasts before you become one!

Wrong me or try to physically harm me and I will not be using tears as a “weapon” at all. I have other ways of dealing with bullies and attackers.

Heeeeey I’ve been wondering where you went. It’s been SIX MONTHS. Way too long.
