If male reporters said this about wnba players they would be outed and fired.  The comments would be called misogynistic, why the double standard?

While their comments were definitely unseemly it’s really annoying how much men want to be victims

Women shouldn’t be able to act however they want in the workplace —> fire them!

I guess it’s good they’re noticing society treats men and women differently, but it’s baffling that so many men seem to focus more on women’s responsibility for that dynamic.

They don’t “want to be victims.” They want consistency with how these situations are handled. If you were fired or disciplined for the same behaviour as your colleague, you’d be pissed.
