It's amazing how I've never ever seen a single thread on this metaphor and not seen at least two to three male users get furious and thus prove the metaphor 100% correct. Not once. Every single time. It's like catnip they can't resist it.
It's amazing how I've never seen a single thread negatively generalize half the population and not seen at least two or three people from that half of the population get indignant. It's almost like people don't like being stereotyped.
