Society now glorifies mental illness to the point that every feeling, no matter how incomprehensible, must be “affirmed.” Thus, “rage rituals” are supposedly a thing and women are “paying big money to scream and smash sticks in the woods,” according to USA Today.
It doesn’t even take one to go past the subheadline to figure out there are many problems with this. Because who would pay to throw temper tantrums in the woods? Anyone can do that for free and this is literally the dumbest thing ever.
Rage rituals have garnered attention on TikTok, where they’ve resonated, particularly with women. In comments, women describe how moving it is to see other women embody their anger − an emotion experts say society often discourages women from expressing.
“There’s no place where you can see women be able to be angry like that and it not be condemned,” Helmus says. ” ‘She’s just hormonal. She’s just unhinged. She’s just crazy. She’s just on her period. She’s just, whatever.’ This was a place where you were, probably for the first time in a really, really long time, if ever, able to scream out loud things about how you felt.”
