The article talks most about moral anxiety because it is targeted toward philosophy students, but I've been looking for a while for insight into survival anxiety.
Growing up male, I was always morally anxious about the possibility that I would harm someone else accidentally or (when I was considering joining the military) through violence or (when I became sexually active) through misinterpreted signs of lucid enthusiastic consent. A thing that I've never fully been able to grapple with is anxiety around the possibility of being assaulted or having violence done to me and I feel like this makes me fail at properly empathizing with many of the women I'm friends with. Does anyone know of anything I could read or watch besides Gavin, Captain Awkward, or MVC? I feel like I just don't get it and, well, feel anxious about that.
