    This is like saying a buddy who doesn’t want to hang out with you is the same as one who shoots and kills you. Neither activity is great, but there isn’t really a similarity.

      They’re identical ideologies, in your analogy the only difference is that one has a gun and the other doesn’t. Both are happy to shoot, one just doesn’t have to power to.

      Both are disgusting and I want no part of either.

        If you think they are identical ideologies, you have much bigger issues than avoiding people who don’t like you.

          Hatred of the opposite sex merely for existing is gross.

            Hating is not the same thing as being wary of.

            But you framing being wary of men due to lived experience with them as “hating… merely for existing” is a bit histrionic.

              Choosing to be with a bear rather than a man is blatant misandry. That’s beyond wariness.

                It’s perfectly logical to be more afraid of the thing you’ve actually been hurt by. That’s how fear works.

                It’s highly emotional, however, to be butthurt that someone else has a reaction that ultimately doesn’t affect you in any material way.

                If a man was that afraid of me, I’d feel bad for them, but I’d not throw an online temper tantrum about it.

                  No, it’s not. That’s ridiculous. It’s completely illogical.

                  So Black people aren’t allowed to get mad about racism? Or they are only allowed to be mad when it personally affects them?

                    You don’t have any new arguments, do you. I’ve already addressed that.

                    Ultimately, I don’t care if you are mad about it. Women are still going to give you a wide berth when they feel like it, and apparently with reason. The men who react the way you do are part of the reason men are perceived as a threat. I’m done trying to invite you to have a bit of basic comprehension.
