Lowkey considered just dropping a list of signs a man is abusive just to help the girlies out. I don’t have relationship experience but I have had many abusive male family members and that shit has altered my brain chemistry

Here’s some signs I’ve observed- -Quick to anger/short tempered -Tries to assert control through small ways (search up coercive control) -Sleep deprivation/being uncomfortable when you rest/relax -Constantly puts down or says sexist/misogynistic things about women -Aggressive towards women, kids, or pets -Talks at you/forced you into circular convos

-Gets upset when you have friends or any community that supports you -Very religious - Any sort of coded language about how women have lost their way or how they dislike “western women” - Constantly making loud noises as a way to get attention (slamming doors, doing basic things really rough) Hope these don’t sound too basic but these are things I’ve noticed with my dad, his brothers, and some of my friends boyfriend

I think coercive control kinda touches on that because it’s used as a way to manipulate ppl into into doing things you want them to do
