Men get so bent out of shape whenever they even could be considered at fault for anything.

Meanwhile the word hysteria exists...

No, people get bent out of shape because it’s a gendered, sexist term. End of story. Just like man-splaining. You can discuss male specific toxicity and men being condescending without using terms that very clearly are divisive and prejudicial.

If you use the terms while pretending to be progressive or for equality then you’re a liar and a hypocrite. Hope that helps.

It doesn't. Because this is a misogynist talking point. But you know that. That's your goal.
