This article appeared today on my facebook page and I'm just sickened how men are more and more being cast as the bad guy.

Here are some of the FB comments.
xxxxx The idea behind things like this is NOT that ALL guys are douche-bags Mike. The idea behind it is that all women have to put up with this kind of things from men, and that IS an issue for ALL guys.
Think about it like this; if you have a wife/girlfriend, a mother, and two grandmothers, it's likely that at least one woman who you are very close to considers herself to have been sexually assaulted at some point. So while articles like this address all men, it's not because that behavior is exhibited BY all men, it's because the issue concerns us all.

xxxxx Oh okay, so to be clear the headline "Dear MEN" doesn't apply to all men? Glad we cleared that up...

xxxxx Mike, read this with your good eye, it is ADDRESSING all men, NOT because all men act this way, but because IT IS an issue that all men need to RECOGNIZE.

xxxxxx Why do I need to recognize that these type of idiots exist? Why? What does anything in that article have to do with me? And for the record, not all women have to deal with **** like this. Pretty sure my wife has never gotten any texts like that. Either way, Do either myself, Nick, or Chris have anything at all in common with these guys? No. So stop lumping yourself (and myself) in with them.

xxxxx Mike, if you can't recognize that this is not just about texts then I don't know what to tell you.

xxxxx "Dear MEN: This is why women have every right to be disgusted with US" < That, coupled with the opening paragraph is what gets old. None of us are anything like the "men" discussed in the article. He meant "Douchebags" so he should have said "Docuhebags."
And, I think this is pretty obvious, if the headline were "Dear WOMEN: You're all *****s..." no amount of explanation or qualification would mitigate the harm.

xxxxxxNick, I get entirely that this is about absurd texts SOME men send to SOME women. My beef is with the headline and opening tone of the article. Other than that, it's pretty hilarious.

xxxxx I will just make this final observation though... No, not "all women" have to deal with the **** portrayed in that article. If you think "all women" get texts like that or are treated that way, you might want to find new female friends. Just off the top of my head I'd say I know maybe 3 or 4 female friends who have probably had to put up with that ****, and a dozen or so who most certainly have not.
Not every woman hangs out at bars and deals with texts from pathetic rejects.

xxxxx I don't think that the point was that "all women" have to deal with obscene texts Mike, it's that all women have to deal with objectification.

xxxxxx And the shaming of the American male continues. Why don't women just create a petition to castrate the American man while they are at it? Ridiculous article.
