yoisthissexist: Look at you, all figuring shit out on your own. Yes, “friendzone” is part of rape culture because it’s predicated on the idea that a woman is deliberately withholding something or punishing a man by not returning his sexual interest. Which is based on the commodification of female sexuality wherein if a man “pays” through attention, “kindness,” status, etc. then he’s owed recompense in the form of a woman’s submission. Which traces straight back to the idea that every woman, every woman’s body, every woman’s being, is or should be available to any man do with as he pleases. Which is itself the very backbone of rape culture.
