Important clarification/FAQ

I am not calling to coddle or excuse the behavior of bigoted men in any way!

I am calling to be kind and understanding to young men (often ages 10-20) who are very manipulable and succeptible to the massive anti feminist propaganda machine. Hope this clarifies that very important distinction. :)

Very good comments that express key points:

    “Unknown men” includes me if they don’t know me.

    I’m not upset they don’t want to be around me. The feeling is so mutual.

    But let’s be real clear.: Women can be inappropriate too, and often are.

    Everyone is trash. Especially the ones who dismiss things by saying “this isn’t about you” when it is about everyone who is impacted by it.

      You are specifically choosing to put yourself in that group and then get offended by it. That’s no one else’s problem but your own. Yes, I’m dismissing what you say, because you keep trying to portray yourself as a victim when it has nothing to do with you. You’re not a victim just because a woman who doesn’t know you would choose not to be alone with you.

        In no way have I ever said I was this. You’ve not been listening to anything I’ve said.

        I’d like to not be in this conversation with you. Respect that. Goodbye.

          They definitely feel they have a right to express their desire, because as a man… I’m obviously trying to fuck everything in sight. (Sarcasm)

          I feel uncomfortable around unknown women

          Tell me again how you don’t portray yourself as a victim.

          I’d like to not be in this conversation with you.

          The feeling is mutual. Have a nice day.
