    I agree with this. Problem is that it is not done by most men, but this post makes it seem like most of them do or want to.

      but this post makes it seem like most of them do or want to.

      The people commenting on the post are making this implication, the comic itself is bland and dumb and has been overplayed for the last 30 years as a pretty standard joke about the differences between men and women and doesn’t really make a suggestion beyond “men and women have different concerns.”

      The problem is we are all internalizing both perspectives in the most toxic, anti-social ways imaginable and isolating ourselves more and more and making the divide worse and worse every year.

      Interesting. I interpreted it differently.

      I saw it as women experience assault at such high levels, that they feel unsafe around strangers.

      Whereas, men see it as an exciting opportunity, full of possibilities. Not necessarily that they intend to commit assault.

      This post makes it seem that women need to prepare for assault even if not everyone will assault them.
