    I’ve never in my entire life heard a single person say that all men are trash. I think you’re either lying or exaggerating, and you haven’t either.

    Pointing out that some men do horrible things is a common observation. Asking that men stop other men from doing bad things is another thing that could sounds burdensome. I can see how these types of statements might upset you if you’re missing the context or the speaker is unclear. But neither of them is equivalent to saying that all men are trash.

      I didn’t have that experience, therefore you are lieing.

      Wonder why men are turning away

        the irony is so much of this disoc2urse parallels the rape discourse.

        ‘well i haven’t been raped so if you got raped it is your fault or your lying’ ’ well i don’t experience misogyny, so therefore nobody hates women ever and you are making it up’

        the pushback is always of the form ‘why is that that women get raped’ it’s that ‘if you got raped its your fault and maybe you shouldn’t wear provocative clothing or drink or go out at night’

        just like here it’s not ‘why are men voting right’ it’s ‘if men are unhappy and vote right they should be even unhappier and be punished’
