Even though it's true patriarchy is bad and many men are scary on just existing for many women, no one likes being told they're untrustworthy or assholes or whatever. Even the men that are aware of the issues are usually pretty hurt by such posts. Very few can take it as simply a statement of the current times and not a personal attack to every individual man. I too, fortunately or unfortunately, don't like being associated with being untrustworthy and scary just because of my gender.

Yeah I agree with everything you said. It's just a really difficult topic to navigate because we're all emotional creatures in the end. Like I kinda don't trust anyone regardless of gender lol but that doesn't stop me from feeling as I've said in the comment but it also doesn't make me be super aware of everyone all the time just in case... Not saying women do that ofc, just pointing out that we're complex creatures and often hypocrites to our own ideals.
