How, or why, do some folks assume such ugly things about people they don't know? I really don't understand the raw meanness, ever, but especially in this day and time. Being mean is a choice.
Thanks, everyone, for your thoughts. I appreciate it.
Are you new here? Just curious....

He didn’t make it a contest; he never said he felt worse or even that he wanted any sympathy. It was an honest question about a phenomenon and everyone gets on the defensive about how we as women have everything so much worse. Just stop and be a decent human and answer the question; or don’t and move along.
