    I’m not sure you’re understanding the situation. Imagine if 1 out of 10 dogs you approached were aggressive, would you feel happy around dogs? Or would you protect yourself?

    You’re fully aware that women are taking actions are protecting themselves, so why are you taking this personally? Why not just be understanding?

      Everything about the post was him talking about how he’s understanding but it hurts us to be treated that way by default as well. Did you even fucking read it?

        I don’t think you read it. He is suggesting that women reacting to actual real danger is damaging to him. If he understood then it wouldn’t be hurtful.

        Do you get upset when a strange child is scared of you? Of course not, because you understand that new people are scary to children.

        Are you suggesting that black people are regularly attacking people? Because if not then it’s not the same thing is it?

          You’re saying men regularly attack people… but not black men? So it’s only white men that women are afraid of?

            It’s hilarious that you started this by saying you’re ‘trying to be part of the solution’ but are then pretending you don’t understand the issue at all.

            If you want to be part of the solution then start by educating yourself.

              It’s hilarious I tell you how I feel and you tell me I’m not only wrong, but need to educate myself before my feelings are correct. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

                Some feelings come from prejudice. It’s not saying that those feelings don’t exist but they need to be looked at.

                If you are upset at people having perfectly normal reactions to dangers in their environment then you need to look at those feelings and work on putting yourself in other peoples shoes.
