I’ve had a thought. Let’s get right down to this male/female thing and start building bridges over what appears to be a growing divide. Women’s groups starting to do things for men’s groups in goodwill, and vice versa. In time there will be less vice and versa, and more cohesiveness and understanding in community.

You’re disgusted that women, actual sufferers of violence and oppression, have turned themselves back into victims and should promote better behaviours between the sexes?
The Victorian age just called and want their ethos back 🙄
