And neither is suggesting that all men need to feel superior to women in order to feel like a man? Because that is what I was calling out in my post. I got slammed roundly for pointing that out, but no one seems to have any issue with the post I commented on. From my time here, it doesn't seem like different points of view are welcome at all.
