Ive also encountered misogynist comments directed at male friends who play games with me.
On a few occasions I've had my best guy pal I play with be bombarded with comments about how he's a simp if he helps me in any way in the game.
I told this guy friend I was mad for him. He said he just ignores it but. It's pretty shitty.
Being cooperative doesn't make him a simp. We like playing games together cause we have a fun dynamic. I kinda hated that other men were trying to make him feel bad about it.
Mysoginist men really try to enforce other men to bend to their rules just as much as they harass women.
