"Not all men” replies are ridiculous

[GarlicFound]

Generalisations exist for a reason. There's no need to point out that there are exceptions. When you want to highlight that your comment's universal, you say "All children", for instance. Generalising to "Children" implies "Children in general, for the most part, usually".

Everybody knows this. So there's no need to specify "NOT ALL MEN" each and every time anyone makes a general observation about men, goddamit!

You don't say "Not all dogs [have four legs]" or "Not all ice-cream [is cold]".

Having a penis doesn't make you especially vulnerable to generalisations. So grow up, please, and accept that YOU or your DH are not "all men" - general comments aren't intended to single you out. And if you feel like they are, you're a bit thick, not to mention narcissistic.

What absolute bollocks

I would LOVE it if men avoided me when walking home alone at night or when I’m out trying to dance with my girls

I’m not saying that: I’m saying it’s not all men but it’s usually always a man.
what don’t you understand about that? I’m not saying your son is a rapist. But I’m saying rapists are men.

Women can’t rape.

Any man has the potential to rape, we just don't know which is why women take all these precautions and change their behaviour to accommodate that potential risk

And I'm sure there are men who would love woman to avoid them as well.

yes but at least those men won’t be raped by them

Woman can also be rapists.

Thank you because I’m starting to feel like I’m speaking to a brick wall here

Woman can be rapists as well.

I KNOW. But the facts say 99.9% of the time it’s a man. And I don’t alter my behaviour so women don’t rape me - and rightly nobody expects me to.
why is it so different with men?!

It's not though, and if it is for you, you need to have better men around you

Yes they can. Men do get raped by woman. You are a brick wall yourself

The only way a woman can be charged with and convicted of rape in this country is if she has assisted a man to rape a woman.

(By "woman" here I mean an actual biological natal woman.)

Well that's disgusting, the law should be changed. Woman can and rape then, the pathetic law didn't change that

No they can’t.

legally women can not rape because it requires a penis

Several people showed you why legally that’s not true.
i gave you the benefit of the doubt and assumed you were referring to sexual abuse and agreed it’s not impossible.
but it’s incredibly unlikely

So if a woman spiked a mans drink then did something sexually that the man didn't consent to then that wouid be totally fine? You clearly aren't the mother of young men. It's rape

the legal definition of rape in England and Wales is when someone intentionally penetrates another person's vagina, anus or mouth with their penis, without that person's consent.

that would be sexual assault

But to a man it would certainly feel like rape

No it would be sexual assault.

Just the same as if a man was to grab your tits it would be sexually assault not rape

It would only feel like rape if a man raped him.

Which obviously does happen.

Men rape women and men.
Women don’t rape either men or women.

The general "I hate all men, all men are useless, leave the bastard because he didn't set the dishwasher once and is therefore a dead weight" are pretty ridiculous too tbh.

Sticking to not all men, because it's not all men. It would be the same as someone saying all woman could sexually assaulted men. That's not true. Neither is saying all men could rape.
