215. How was it brought up?
The OP posted a cartoon. There was no comment. Then several men proceeded to freak the fuck out.

I think it sucks that this thread is littered with subthreads of indignant men as opposed to people actually discussing the issue.

Should threads about racism always be qualified with all the good things that white people do? Should threads about homophobia always be qualified with the good things that straight people do? If no, why should a thread about sexual violence towards women go out of its way to make men feel better, when they're are almost invariably the perpetrators of what the OP is attempting to address?
