Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

And the original lie isn’t sociopathic? You seem to think the secondary lies are somehow more damaging to the man than the original lie is damaging to the woman

Edit: ain’t saying this is a healthy or nice response. But he dished out a malicious, cruel lie that would damage her reputation (b/c let’s be real, the people doing this are teens and the slut label does real, lasting damage to a girl’s reputation), so she’s dishing malicious, cruel lies to damage his reputation. It’s weird that you decided that her behavior is worse than his. They’re doing the same thing to each other, he just started it in an attempt to boost his own reputation, which makes him the bigger piece of shit.

"X is bad" doesn't mean "Y isn't bad".

Their first comment specifically called the woman the shittiest person in this scenario, that the woman’s lies were even more disgusting and depraved than the man’s lie, to which I strongly disagree. I never said they were condoning the man’s behavior (they did call the man a shitty person), I just questioned why they thought the woman was worse.
