They're speaking about their experience and you just completely dismissed it as "women don't do things like that, the wrong type of women do."

I recall a man/bear hypothetical being posted recently and any man that said "not all men" was shouted down and called a misogynistic rape apologist or worse.

When someone speaks about their lived experiences it's best to just listen and acknowledge, not try to defend shitty people.

I don't know if you assume that I am a woman, or you are trying to make me cheer for the bear.

I understand that people have personal experiences that can be hard and even unbearable, to even talk about, but that does not justify one saying that men are like that and women are like this. I understand that it is important to share about ones lived experiences but also important not to make conclusions about all humanity based on the few people you have had a relationship to

We agree it's important not to judge an individual based on the actions of a group. It unfortunately happens all the time.
