@orange_girl You did notice that I did not say women alone, I addressed my comments to those who use attention seeking victim mentality generally.
There was nothing flippant in my statement, and having been married twice, being the father of a daughter, being the uncle of a niece, grandfather of two grand daughters, who I have raised, having been a son, grandson and nephew I have no shortage of point of view of women's lived experiences and I can say with out a doubt that this kind of playing the martyr is the experience only of a minority.
My niece was badly and violent attacked by a man, I was a victim of spousal abuse for five years, we neither of us blame or expect such behaviour from all members of the opposite sex and therefore do not judge someone just by their gender.
My Daughter is managing director of a firm of security guards of all genders and sexual orientation running her own successful business she takes no sexism from anyone and will not tolerate false claims of it from any one, she is a strong independent successful woman of whom I am justly proud and deals with stupidity immediately and definitely without resorting to whinging and whimpering about being a helpless victim of nasty rough men, and refusing to come back until they are made to go away, in point of fact she is more likely to throw them out until they learn to stop being childish.
SO before you throw glib statements like "I suppose it's this kind of flippant attitude toward's women's lived experiences" at me or any other men, you would do well to remember we too have a life time of lived experiences with women we love dearly and who love us in return.
Thank you for your attention if you have bothered to read this post to the end.
