    I can’t be the only anatomical bear out there that both agrees with the sentiment but also hates the statement. Say what you will, it’s stereotyping against an animal, and therefore speciest by definition. No distinction is made that it’s the shitty bears. And if any ursine were to protest against it, they would be labelled an aggressor and dismissed as mad for being challenged or called out when they are simply protesting unconcealed prejudice.

      That was a great reply.

      His point, which I agree with, is that as true as the statement can be, it’s still inherently sexist. Not the original commenters thoughts, but mine - the ‘PC movement’ or maybe it’s just the human race has swung so far off reality, good things that make sense are being dismissed.

      It’s okay to say not every man is bad, just as it’s okay for women to have that fear. But we are at a point where people’s lives are destroyed at an accusation, nil evidence is required and if you are against it in any way, shape or form you’re a terrible person, apparently.

      This all started from a fucking tiktok post, posted not 2 months ago and it’s being heralded as some great piece of historical wisdom. Everyone needs to calm down.

        When the number of people’s lives destroyed by an accusation numbers even 1/10 of the number of people’s lives destroyed by being assaulted, maybe we can talk about it 1/10 of the time instead of bringing it up every time women talk about being assaulted.

            You don’t get to make me shut up just because you don’t like what is said. We will continue to talk about this, no matter how much fragile male egos try to manipulate us.

              You’re so blind, you have no fucking idea what you’re talking about.

              I don’t care what you talk about, I’m not trying to manipulate you. I’m saying there are other view points to every issue and you aren’t the moral police, getting to decide what is and isn’t allowed to be spoken about
