    Even just being afraid walking alone. One just need a quick lookup on male stats around that. TL;D, it’s gruesome and it’s definitely naive to think they’re somehow walking around as “brave men”. Discriminating gender like that around a shared social issue is the first note of irony here.

    The second is I think if this pperson’s raising that some sort of a privilege is at play when it’s just normal everyday things we all share, they’re speaking from a place farther up than most in society. I can’t imagine most people having these as ticket items in their life and somehow pinning it to gender when it’s just the norm for everyone.

    Third note or irony; that could only be caused by the “patriarchy” living rent-free in the mind, which means it’s won there with such nonsense being distraction…

    In other words, If they want to get mad at the residue of a patriarchal society; Pay gaps. Women’s rights in parts of the world. Religious ideals. Generational DV. Participation in STEM. So many actual things.

    Some times I just think we’re doomed and somehow deserve it… The progress is so slow 😔
