Just to clear up any confusion: I'm not here to delegitimize men's struggles. I'm just hoping that we can finally start legitimizing women's. Regardless of what you've decided about me, I'm not "anti-men". I am, however, super "pro-women". You should be too.

Because there are fewer risks now, we tend to focus on very unlikely things that could happen and overprotect. eg kids not allowed to walk to park and play alone coz kidnap possible. Some women saying theyre scared to open their front door coz could be a home invading rapist.

Okay, this might be true. I will reconsider. Certainly agree with your point about helicopter parenting.

I wouldn't want you to think women generally live their lives being afraid of men violently attacking them. I don't know anyone who does this. OK, we can get nervous if out late alone and there's 1 man walking behind us but so do men & we're statistically safer than men.

We barely notice as we’ve been taught that’s how life is. My mom used to say it’s wrong you can’t run by yourself at night. But it’s still not safe.

It depends where you live! You're still more likely to be attacked if you are a man tho, wherever you are. But I regularly walk by myself at night and go through London by myself at night. You can't stop living just in case you encounter a criminal. Well you can but what a waste.
