[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]PP you keep talking about the commercial and that is fair but do you not see the core problem that this commercial is tackling? I think, for example, that radical muslims absolutely are facing negativity because they have been violent and have hurt people. In the same vein, men are responsible for mass shootings, responsible for assault and harassment of women. Not all men of course, but this is a problem in how we are raising boys. A problem we need to tackle as a society. Maybe Gillette isn't getting 100% right but I think they're getting closer to it then we have gotten so far. [/quote]

No, no, no.

Muslims have not been violent and hurt people. [i]Some particular Muslims[/i] have, and [i]only they[/i] are responsible for their misdeeds, not the group as a whole.

"Men" are not responsible for mass shootings and assault and harassment of men. Only a tiny minority of particular men. This is not a problem in "how we are raising boys" because nobody is raising their son to be a violent criminal.

Um, a tiny minority of men?  Statistics on rape, murder, sexual assault, and pedophilia suggest that [b]many, many, MANY men are doing this crap[/b].  Obviously a lot of people are (unintentionally) raising their sons to be criminals.[/quote]
Have you ever asked the men in your lives how old they were when they lost their virginity and to whom? Do you know many male rapes and sexual assaults go unreported? [/quote]  How does your response counter my argument?  Do you believe it's women raping these men and boys?  Because by and large, it is not.  Males are doing this to women, girls, and boys and men.  Lots and lots of males are doing this.  So what is wrong with them?  It must be cultural right because men are not inherently bad.  Are they?[/quote]
 Males between the age of 11-14 have their virginity stolen by older women. These female predators are not held accountable because sexual assault of boys is widely unreported.[/quote]

Rape is widely unreported.  When female predators of under-aged boys are caught, they generally go to prison.  Do some people make horrible comments about the boys wanting it?  Yes.  Some people, including judges, also make horrible comments about 13yo girls wanting it or telling them they should just keep their legs together.  In general, under-aged boys aren't dealing with being groped, cat-called, or followed around by adult women though.
