    I’m a man. I like being a man. I like the other men in my life. I’m not being sexist, and neither is this comic. You claim I have a negative attitude attached to a gender… I’ve only criticized rapists. Is hating rapists equivalent to hating men? I’ve been very clear in my beliefs and why I hold them, and all you’ve done is some racial what-aboutism. Seriously man, have a think about this one. We’re on the same side - the difference being when I see stuff hating on men, I blame the men that give us a bad name, not the women that have chosen to be cautious around men for their own safety. If I ever encountered a woman scared by my presence, I wouldn’t get upset and think “wow what a bitch she hates men just for being men”. I would become saddened that the world we live in puts women in a position that they fear men.

    contributing factors like socioeconomic status or substance issues

    It’s because of these factors that there is nuance with these kinds of jokes.
