    But we do associate it with manhood. Until we move on from that mindset, it is an attack on someone’s manhood

      And the way we move on from that is by each of us, individually, deciding that’s not an attack on manhood.

        Right, but to see the difference takes time. Some people are more hung up on the current view than others.

          Societal change starts with the individual. If one person today has changed their views, it’s a step.

            I’m not doubting that, I’m just saying “we” as a society still associates the ability to get laid with manliness. And that’s not changing anytime soon
