This is not my personal opinion, I know Gen Z men who voted for Harris. But the voter demographics really speak for themselves, and maybe now people will look at the radicalization of young men as a serious (but solvable) issue.

The only thing you can be absolutely sure of as a liberal white male is that no one likes you or wants to hear from you.

I can see that. I'm not a white guy but I'm raising a son. And we've gotten to the point where a boy can't express his needs and feelings, without being told "women have it worse", add to this the constant talk of men being dangerous, scary, the cause of all ills, and I can see how that would damage a young guy's self esteem and frustrate him. I have to constantly teach both my son and daughter to value others and don't judge them for what their entire gender did before they were born. I dunno if that made any sense, but yea it feels like boys just get told to "man up" and deal with it

I live near a primary school and there are multiple "YES ALL MEN" slogans written on the walls right next door. I wonder what those boys will think about their place in the world when this is what the walls are yelling at them.

I was molested as a kid and I saw a woman holding a sign online that said "not all men, but ALWAYS a man" which completely ignored people like me who were abused by a woman

"Remember, kids, blatant, sweeping misandry isn't bad because painting -- no matter how you slice it -- literally half of society as rapists and murderers and sex-crazed lunatics whose only thought is for animalistic dominance over anyone standing near them is a lie so big and so dangerous it'd give Trump a run for his money, it's bad because if a transmasc person reads an 'all men are bad' post, they might think it's about them and be sad, and then you'd be hurting someone we actually care about."

It sickens me that these people call themselves feminists. You can fight for trans rights and women's rights without doing it to the exclusion of everyone else.
