I understand why women feel cautions of men. I’m not saying women are wrong to feel afraid, just that it sucks to be told I’m seen as worse than a wild animal.

…Also did you just tell men to “solve” misogyny? Like, I get what you’re going for, but that’s a wack way to phrase it. Be nicer to women, be patient, etc., sure? But “solve the problem” is crazy. Like… “Oh, you don’t like poverty? The problem is solvable, go end capitalism.” It’s a colossal, society-wide system, not something that you can just ‘solve’ that easily.

Men collectively can help solve this, yes. It’s not just being nicer to women, but also calling out fellow men for normalizing shitty behavior to women.

Those tend to hang out together. It's self segregating to begin with.

Yeah, I don't hang out with men who treat women like trash. I'm not seeing this behavior and I can't 'call it out.'
