So instead of women having to register their route home…

I see the new idea to keep women “safe” (or maybe just to be able to find their murdered body more easily?) an app has been suggested so that women put in their route and if they’re late, a call goes to the police.
So, what about instead of that, men have to register their route before they go out - and if they go “off route” an alert is sent and they’re arrested.
Also, how about 2-3 nights a week, men have a curfew. Any man out after 8pm has to have a female chaperone, or if they’re at work, they have a permit and have to register their route.
Women have done the heavy lifting on keeping themselves safe for ages, how about we do some proper stuff to affect men for a change?
I don’t have answers for violence in the home - but maybe instead of blaming women and expecting them to constantly change their behaviour, men could do something.
This is somewhat tongue in cheek although the more I think about it, the more I think it should happen. Women are already mainly under a voluntary evening curfew, so how about we flip this.

Personally I think we need a penis license. Men should do a theory test to show that they understand how to behave in public and how to operate their penis responsibly. They can't go out after dark unless they have the penis license.

A bit like the old dog license, or a driving license, or the citizenship test

This is just fabulous. Best bit of the internet I’ve seen for a couple of weeks Grin

Thank you
My DP was most affronted when I suggested it to him but I really can't seethe problem.
If men truly believe NAMALT and there are no problems, they should be happy to get the license. Smile

Expanding on your idea, there could also be a mystery shopper element to the licence. Female actors could be employed to test men on their non misogynist prick credentials with various scenarios in the wild.
