    This article is about how everyone needs support, only the last comment on it even mentioned the language.

        I can’t see how anything is being diverted here. They are two distinct issues and we have to be able to acknowledge more than one societal problem at a time if we are to make meaningful changes.

            Do you genuinely believe that a man has never been discriminated against in some way by a woman because of his sex in the history of the world?

            I think reducing the cause of these societal failings down to “alpha bros” is oversimplifying too much though. They are systemic issues, and a solution for one will not necessarily be the solution to the other. Ensuring women’s equality won’t inherently eliminate the pressures that prevent men from opening up emotionally, and vice versa. They both need to be talked about.
