I actually don’t think this is as true as is often assumed. Men are far more likely to be murder victims than women are.

Sexual violence is another matter however.

I recently started jogging through this long, dark trail that hosts a nearby homeless encampment, and honestly didn’t think about it at all until my partner raised her eyebrow at where I was jogging. Just one of those little patriarchy taxes that I don’t have to pay.

Not that unhoused people are particularly dangerous or anything, but still you’re less certain if you’re going to meet someone on a really bad day there

While a lot of these were certainly relevant in 1990, i think we’ve made great progress in some areas; particularly around precipitation of cognitive abilities, employment, and corporate position.

Women still suffer a shitpile around children/family views and, as you and this article point out, victimization from sexual assault and violence.

We could still do with a decrease in men thinking the sun rises out of their assholes, despite being marginal in performance or social values. Far too many basement trolls wallowing in a muddy mixture of Dorito dust and mountain dew, thinking they know it all.

We men also need to do a L O T of work on developing emotional intelligence, healing wounds from toxic masculinity (boys don’t cry) and passing this on to future generations.

I know I’m in the minority of guys, but over half of them don’t apply to me.
