Very good topic. As a guy it's sad to be lumped in with "macho men" "sexist men" as the #metoo movement has being doing. Do we want to create a world of putting down all men? This is the rhetoric that is going strong sadly. Many men are to blame, but do we want this kind of world where someone is better than another? Aren't we supposed to think of "equality" rather than putting people down?

@vacationer Women are very good at socially being on each other's sides (men are horrible at it) and it's now pitting one against the other as one being free of mistakes. Also, we have a good list of guys feeling that they are being "man-hated on" but we aren't high-fiving each other here. We aren't following up on each other's comments, whereas women will keep the conversation going. That's the difference with men and women. Women have to hope that this #metoo thing doesn't backfire (as it has with a female politician in LA who has 2 men accusing her of sexual harassment) where men are afraid of coming onto them in a "friendly" & "gentlemen" fashion. Again, don't get me wrong as guys have been too aggressive with women for a long time (since the start of time?).
