          Sure: Read the article and reassess what you think it’s about. I for sure didnt walk away with the same impression you did, but I could see why I would if I read the headline and headed straight to the comments section.

          At least read the article before you criticize it, because it’s nothing like what you seem to think it is.

            I did read it and it’s riddled with shit I would never, ever want, and yet he presents it like it’s a bad thing. Here’s a choice example:

            When traveling or running errands, and I saw a parent dealing with an exhausting kid, I could help and not be stared at like a creep.

            I can’t imagine ever wanting to help with a strangers child. Not because I might be treated like a creep, but because it’s just none of my business. I would even go so far as to say that assuming they need help is problematic in itself. But he doesn’t address that; no, apparently men don’t help because we’ve been broken by society.

      I was talking about the overall tone of the article. It didn’t feel like an attack or judgement.
