If you go by the amount of hashtag activism you see online, you'd think that to live as a woman in 2016 is to live in a constant state of terror and horror.

Almost every day it seems like it's something else they're screaming about. A partial list: #yesallwomen; #everydaysexism; #growingupagirl; #shoutyourabortion; #thisgirlcan; #notbuyingit; #solidarityforwhitewomen; #heforshe; #noceilings; #askhermore; #banbossy; #girlrising, #wheniwas, #survivorprivelege; #rapefcultureiswhen; #hollaback; #whyistayed; #dudesgreetingdudes; #tothegirls; #ilooklikeanengineer; #tampontax; #girlswhocode; and of course #genderpaygap.

Of course, we know this is mostly all contrived drama, since white American women -- statistically speaking -- do better and live longer than any other demographic. Perhaps what we're seeing here is women's need to be damsels in distress. And when there is no distress, they invent it.

Whatever the case, there's a new hashtag in town, and of course it's miraculously "trending" on Facebook. (Gee, it seems almost like they engineer all that, doesn't it?)

The new one for today is #maybehedoesnthityou. That connotes "emotional abuse" which is "a form of domestic violence that isn't talked about." And, of course, you have women (like this one) writing online about how they've been through "multiple relationships" where this happens.

Never mind whether this is being played up for attention or not. Does anyone think to tell these women that if they're being abused in "multiple relationship" then maybe, just maybe, it's their choices that are the problem? If more than one woman fleeced me for money and I brought that on here, the response would definitely be "You need to change!" Guess no one's allowed to tell women the truth.

The cumulative effect of all of this is that it's supposed to be "empowering." But I see it the opposite way. Years of this have made me realize that for women to keep pushing one victim narrative after the next, they must live continuous state of hysteria and drama. Or, they perceive the world this way. Because -- as I said -- it doesn't square with statistics (or what I witness day to day).

As such, the overall perception of what women are is gradually changing. And it's going to affect a lot of things in the long run. We might already being seeing the effects of this with people apparently not caring that Donald Trump is "offensive to women! OMG!" in his campaign.

Whereas in the 1990s, you had employers happy to bring in female workers, my guess is that nowadays bosses are going to be wary of bringing a potential Lifetime movie sob story into the workplace. Same goes for men entering into relationships.

After all, if everything about women's lives is a horror show, who is going to want to invest in them? Perhaps the hashtag crew should have taken a lesson in marketing from The Donald and accentuated the positive instead. Because what's happening now can't be doing them any good.

As if women aren't infinitely more prolific practitioners of psychological warfare within relationships than men are by a long shot. And how about all that abuse happening in lesbian relationships eh?

This is literally the Twitter Victim Olympics.

I'm convinced that the social engineers behind twitter manufacture these "trends" and release them to the public. Them or some other leftist circle-jerk of a group

Welcome to women.

I just accept now that Truth is the Opposite of whatever Progressive Thinkers espouse, so if you want to really zero in on the truth of any matter, look at whom and whatever they demonise the hardest.

When they infiltrated education and psychology in the 60's and 70's, Freud was one of their earliest targets and they worked to get the concept of 'female hysteria' devalidated. Breaking it down, there's a tendency for the hysterical woman to always be causing trouble and act out in attention-seeking ways and it was thought to stem from sexual frustration, and vibrators were prescibed as treatment.

Of course, given the calm, logical, realistic complaints of progressive women, coupled with their high sexual-attractiveness naturally-generating stable, loving, passionate relationships with strong, attractive, masculine men, this can't possibly be true.

This is also how when the Office Harridan suddenly comes into work pleasant and glowing one morning, to the degree that even the polite women in the office say "She obviously got fucked hard last night," everyone is obviously-mistaken and sexist.

This is also why, when I observe the older, sour-faced, nasty woman down the end of my street - who always snaps at any school children walking past and will turn her hose on even the cutest wandering dogs - suddenly come running out of her house in a nightie after a departing man to give him his keys, hair down, absolutely-glowing with a natural femininity that I believed couldn't possibly-exist within her, and she then smiles and waves at me as I walk past as he reverses his car out, should I think "Thanks for taking one for the team, brother", well, I'm just being sexist.

These women are going to complain either way. I don't have to listen. The simple answer to their complaint is that "dysfunction attracts dysfunction," so to get your own house in order, but that would be a Hard Truth, and most woman are incapable of either honest self-reflection or accepting responsiblity for their actions, so truth will always elude them.

What protects the ego more?

"The men I consistently-attract are abusive."

or

"#Allmenareabusive"

Hashtags are just how women communally-agree on how best to deflect personal-responsiblity together.
