Comments on The Boyfriend's Introduction to Feminism

Yes the article, no to the forum discussion.

What about unfair to you specifically?

Actually I think it makes a difference to acknowledge that. It doesn’t have to be a preface, either. The reddit OP mentions it in the last sentence.

I don’t think that constitutes proper awareness. I doubt that most men that women interact with are problematic in any specific instance (over the lifetime of their interactions). It’s hard to tell the proportion of men that suck in any specific way because 10% of men overstepping boundaries can produce a disproportionately large effect. That would still be a lot of men (approx 15 million men in the US; most would be like 75 m or more). That’s enough for a significant pattern, tho. Also women say men suck for all kinds of reasons, not just SA or boundary violations. This doesn’t mean they’re necessarily wrong, but it’s pretty loose for concluding that the majority of men are bad.
