    You’re reading it as being directed toward toxic men only, I’m reading it as blaming the male loneliness epidemic on men in general being toxic.

      Well, that still ain’t wrong… men are, in fact, generally toxic.

      • That’s just boys being boys
      • boys picking on you means he likes you
      • can you get me a beer
      • well, akshully, this really means…
      • Is it your time of the month again?

        Yeah, quoting a few things said by or about the worst possible guys in the world really makes a solid rational point there. Almost as smart as pointing out a few black dudes in prison to prove black people are criminals. Just all-around fucking genius level there, congrats!

          My brother in christ… these are very commonly said.

              Who are men, generally.

              If it’s “the worst men” then commonly, men are in that group. Myself included at times.
