Thank you so much for your thoughtful article and for sharing from a (healthy) male perspective! A few things jumped out but the first was “Men should not protect other men at the expense of women. There is no us versus them.” And then your last sentence. Such a breath of fresh air.
You’re right, a lot of this is learned behavior as a kid, accompanied by silence from peers as an adult when something disrespectful happens. Thank you again, it truly means so much to have a truly masculine man take the time to share his thoughts on this.
