    Excusing overgeneralizations when they’re applied to men? That’s typical…

    I guarantee you would feel different if someone was overgeneralizing about women. Do they just need to grow thicker skin, or is it only men who are supposed to be stoics?

      Like I said above, I agree with you. A similar statement about women would be correctly seen as mysogyny. I’m just stating that it isn’t any more egregious than gestures broadly

        There’s a lot of egregious stuff going on, but I don’t think stooping to the level of egregiousness and turning the same bullshit around on anyone who seems like a convenient target is a tenable solution. That’s letting the egregiousness win.
