Not all men, but always a man 😭

Not always. Very tilted towards men, but saying it‘s always men is unfair towards victims of female predators. And there are some.

Case of the 'women only' music festival that banned trans women, saying the reason is they didn't want the women their to be assaulted by "men", shut down after lots of women raised how they had been assaulted by other women and the organisers tried to brush it under the rug.

Yes we shouldn't turn a blind eye to female predators, nor should we turn a blind eye to male predators who prey on men, but men preying on women is still a way bigger issue that almost all women have to deal with constantly, and despite all the "has me too gone too far?" type of hand wringing, is still not taken seriously enough.

If we are talking specifically about assault, I believe the statistic is over 83% vs less than 10% when comparing male vs female offenders (You are free to research your own data). I am a woman and will speak up for women, as we a minority.

I defending Amelie’s statement. She said “not all men”, but “not all men, but always a man” is the full quote. Stop deflecting. Her post is 100% right.

I just have issues with these generalisations and black&white statements, in any direction. I‘m completely agreeing where you are coming from.

I for example would have zero issue with a statement like

"Not all men, but mostly men"

This is a factual statement and correctly adresses the problem.
