You know why women often say “nothing’s wrong” when something is definitely bothering them
It’s because men have been belittling, minimizing and mocking our emotions forever
And we are socialized to be as passive and undemanding and selfless as possible, and not to run any risk of bothering or angering a man lest he abandon or hurt us
It’s not passive aggression, it is fearoh my god
and then its so highly regarded when men show emotions
Plus girls are always told our issues are “nothing”. No big deal, quit whining, so we end up believing our problems really are “nothing”
Therefor, “nothing’s wrong”
