    Men get so bent out of shape whenever they even could be considered at fault for anything.

    Meanwhile the word hysteria exists…

      No, people get bent out of shape because it’s a gendered, sexist term. End of story. Just like man-splaining. You can discuss male specific toxicity and men being condescending without using terms that very clearly are divisive and prejudicial.

      If you use the terms while pretending to be progressive or for equality then you’re a liar and a hypocrite. Hope that helps.

      Not sure what you’re trying to say. That the word hysteria exists is bad… because it assigned a certain behavior/emotion to women? And because of that assigning a certain behavior/emotion to men is something we should welcome?

        You should look up the origin then. Because your clearly concern trolling at this point.

          Ah yes, jump to ad hominem immediately when you don’t have anything productive to say. Hysteria, can you do something constructing and give me a meaning that contradicts wikipedia?

            The first fucking paragraph is the point. Literally everyone knows this.

            And it’s not an ad hominem when the position I’m criticizing and the term mean the same thing. Your bigotry is appallingly obvious. Shoo.

              I don’t see how what I wrote contradicts the first paragraph, I paraphrased the first sentence. Anyway, so your point really is “a word exists that shows women had it bad, so it’s ok if I use a word now that treats boys and young men badly”
