While women are being threaten with rape and assault (and are being raped and assaulted), the little fellas pretending it doesn't happen simply talk further about which celebrity they want to date or defending their right to sit with a wide stance regardless of who it inconveniences.

It's pretty much why I find all men's rights organizations to be as absurd as a white organization... lacking systemic oppression, they're forced to either admit sexism against women is a problem without a corollary, and finish off the meeting with rants about why PSA about rape are inconvenient and insulting... as though rape and assault aren't.
