Let me just say.. I am Happy that we have a platform in which some of these vistims are getting a chance to voice their stories.. we all have stories and to most of us we see our own perpetrators in each one of these predators..

But there is a reason why this movement is leaving a lot of decent men behind.. some of these men are victims.. there is a reason why some men don't believe you.

The phrase men are trash!! I am sorry that your pretty boy handsome boyfriend slept with ur best friend.. other girls.. and cheated on you. You bring all of that bitterness to this and call all men trash when we all have our own stories.

Let's make me too everyone's movement.. not men are trash!!

I don't think there is any specification that the 'me too' is about only the female victims...Whoever has faced the harassment is welcome to share their story...At least that's what I understood it as!

I do agree. I have seen some comments on here too, that state all men are trash. That's also disgusting. Can't paint all men with the same brush due to actions of few or even several. Plenty of decent men out there. And sexual harassment happens to women, mostly but it is not just limited to women. Men are bullied and sexually harassed too. Read stories of the Two Corey's in HW in the 80s and tell me if that does not break your heart. Being boys instead of girls did not save them from sexual predators. Sexual harassment isn't gender specific. This platform should be open for people of any gender to come out and speak.

#Metoo is not gender based and is pretty neutral. It's just that 99% women have been reporting their stories while men haven't come forward as yet.

Don't mind it. Their experience about men has not been good. It's their emotions which are speaking.

Regarding all men being trash...I do not say trash but most lack self-control when it comes to alcohol or women. They blame alcohol or drugs if they misbehave. My reasons are:

#1 I have seen many women who can stay without a man for months or years while men can't. If men do stay without women, some turn into animals when they don't get them or ask to compromise if they aren't in a relationship. I am not even talking about cheating as that's totally different.


#2 Men immediately get attracted when a woman wears short skirts or even sleeveless dresses or just by looking at a pretty face. Women mostly don't even if a man wears minimal clothes.

#3. Men judge a woman based on her habits and boy friends and even if she works late night. If women drink and have a lot of male friends, it directly means she can have an affair with anyone. Women mostly don't assume such things.

#4. Men don't get the meaning of a NO and feel the women is just playing hard. They assume a smile or a woman being polite means she agrees to it. Women also may cross their limit but men being physically strong can strongly oppose them.

#5. Men stalk more often compared to women and get aggressive when the women refuses his proposal and we see Acid attacks as a result of this.

So no, the women calling men trash and not those who are cheated by their boy friend but because they have faced too many issues with men. A woman in India can't walk on a street wearing a dress or even sleeveless tops without 5-10 men staring at her.

It happens with men too but there's no excuse to saying "Hence some men don't believe you". Many fake cases have been reported and nobody is guilty till they are proved so. No point of blindly supporting one side without seeing any proof. This movement has brought many to light many incidents that are true as well and the accused have been proven guilty.

Nobody is stopping men from sharing. Itz just that men are usually more powerful than women and tend to misuse that power. The day women get empowered, i guess there will be a balance. Waise the movement has just started gaining momentum in India, abhi se complains?
I think the actual left behinds are the kids (both girls and boys).

No one cares about men being molested. I shared my story on that thread but none responded to it. Sisters were busy giving each other hugs and sympathazing with each other. I know many guys who have been raped and molested by their parents, yes moms too but no one will respond to that as it doesn't fit the script 😭 😆 lage raho

What we've now is feminazis and on the other we've men who hate women "revenge of the nerds with this attitude nothing will change.
