I don’t agree with passing off their behavior as “cultural”. I am ashamed of men because some of them are reprehensible and some of them want to ignore how reprehensible they are or explain it away.

I choose to embrace feeling deeply ashamed at how we’ve allowed the worst of us to form the general opinion of us and vocalize that routinely.

Fuck their insecurities, if they want to be able to go up to a woman without “getting her drunk splashed in their face” maybe they should focus harder on fixing the problem so women can generally feel safe with us.
