The displacement effect

When a heterosexual, cisgender male is incorporated into a gender-queer, queer, female friend group burdened with the patriarchal wrongdoings experience by the other members of the friend group despite not being associated with the male majority. For a man to fall under the displacement effect, he can only be incorporated into a singular group.

Andie (she/they): I hate men
Max (they/them): speak your truth Andie!
Matt (he/him): guys I'm right here
Andie (she/they): it's ok Matt, you're part of the displacement effect.

The Jj effect

The Jj effect (it will be studied for millennia) is a beautifully complex effect. An incredible outplay? The Jj effect is present. An awful int play? The Jj effect is present. A pointless solo shatter? The Jj effect is present.
No one truly knows what the Jj effect entails, and it's true meaning is yet to be discovered (hence it shall continue to be studied for millennia to come).
