I’m apart of the don’t be a shithead crowd. Apparently a lot of men in this thread aren’t. And you all wonder why so many women are so terrified of men. You can’t even empathize with the fear and abuse they face at a systemic level.
I do. I empathize with it completely. I’m not even saying that condition is WRONG. But I AM saying that turning someone’s lamentation of the situation into an attack on them is crass. It’s possible to acknowledge the bad situation one group is in, and acknowledge their actions are reasonable, while ALSO being sympathetic about the collateral damage of the situation.
Rather than focus on the very real and legitimate issues at hand, they made it about themselves. Complaining in the thread about how they’re being targeted as a man instead of having a modicum of introspection about why so many women feel this way. I don’t respect or empathize with such a position.
