Imagine if someone started a thread titled "women are gross and dumb" or "black people are gross and dumb" or "[any-group-other-than-men] are gross and dumb." Even if it were a joke, people would be outraged. They certainly would not be posting a bunch of agreements. Come on men, what's wrong with you? Stand up for yourselves, no one else is gonna.
It's a double-standard just like many other things that women say and do.
I don't want to turn this into a men versus women thing. I just want men to get the same level of respect that women do. For people to get as upset about man-bashing as they do about woman-bashing.
Honestly, I was more upset by the men that go along with it than by the women.

It is a generalisation, after all, not all men are gross and dumb.
And not all women are superficial b*****s, all those bitter posts that everyone gets offended by in the "Love and Dating" section are just generalisations, after all.
