Then that's the point to be made. It's obscured by collective blame being placed on a whole group.

Sex offenders are the problem, not men. Islamists, not Muslims. Homophobes, not straight ppl. Misandrists, not feminists etc

Still about intention. Only worth targeting men & women who believe that. The attitude not the gender identity.

I disagree. I think the vast majority of men & women value gender equality & oppose sexual abuse.

I think some may be in denial to its extent, though. But some feminists defend female abusers, too

Yes, women are punished less severely for sexual offences coz men or even boys are seen as 'lucky' to be abused
