    At worst, you’ve committed to a fight that will never ask you to do any fighting.

    Then why should i bother? Where’s all the women empowerment?

    in a world where you can barely make friends without a car or money

    Those aren’t friends… strange world you live in.

    this unfairness you’re subject to will not go away unless the thing that’s causing it is dealt with.

    Predators have existed since mankind has existed, it’s human nature (oh, wait, this is the internet, here’s a disclaimer: no, i’m not defending predators, i’m just saying they’ve always existed; yes, that’s bad).
    So what you’re saying is this unfairness will not go away, ever. How nice.

    Here’s a third idea:
    Most men aren’t predators.
    No one likes being generalized and discriminated against.
    Men will 99% of the times be suspected of being in the wrong whenever there’s any kind of gender conflict, even if they’re not in the wrong.

    As always, this specific topic needs nuance and cultural context, to say the least, which is something you generally don’t find on the internet.
