Thanks for the reply :) Here’s my view, and why I disagree. #1 - I don't think this is a strawman, I find the evidence for this convincing.

#2 - More often I see misogynists justify sexism, pointing to studies sometimes finding slight gender differences, not knee-jerk reactionism

#3’s cool. #4 - No, but severe harassment isn’t ok. Death threats, rape threats, etc I think is more than being mean.

#6 - “People saying things we don’t like” I think is different than promoting violent, fascist, etc worldviews.

Those ones can be & should be. Feminists fought hard to show that women can cope in the public sphere Rubbish.

I think we'll just have to disagree about ignoring everyday sexism, and about cultural appropriation. But I appreciate your opinion!

I don't think we need to ignore it. We can respond if someone assumes women are too emotional or men are violent.

Thank you, Dennis. I do see that you mean well but I fear this attitude infantalises women & perpetuates the idea we can't cope with life.

Aye, well I'll certainly keep that in mind from now on, and reflect on my behavior to try and avoid that. Cheers
