> Well, even if one has nothing to worry about personally, it's just tiring and demotivating to see all those broad accusations all the time. sigh

You do realize that when people talk about men as a class, that isn't the same thing as a personal accusation, right?



Yes, yes it is. Same as if someone referred to all women as a class. It's not fair to generalize about all women. It's not fair to generalize about all men. If you refer to men as a class, you're inherently being just as unfair as if you do the same to women.


Yikes! I don't think that argument would work for any other "class" of people.
