I post the article because it's from Boston's official government website so progressive icon Michelle Wu had to have signed off on it

I feel like this is bad because I know this sounds bad but men don't deserve this, their insecurity,ego and feelings of inadequacy are what got Trump elected here and will likely lead to an AFD government in Germany and an NR government in France.

I feel by doing this we are letting them win and validating their feelings and by extension their persecution complex so now they have every incentive to throw a fit and threaten to vote for and then end up actually voting for right wing parties.

Yeh yeh men have problems to I read bell hooks ok but they have problems in the same way white people have problems, we need to not give in and weather the storm like we did for white people throwing a fit when they started losing status and privilege.

Because we won that fight, we did organized whiteness has gone the way of the dodo when in 2017 with the alt right it felt like ti was taking the world by storm.

Didn't around 44% of women voted for Trump? Should their rights be taken away? Not only that, 44% of men voted for Kamala. Are you suggesting they don't deserve rights either? This isn't a men vs women like you think. You're in this situation because women voted for it too. Bigotry has no gender.
