"But when someone is in pain precisely because he has an overblown sense of entitlement to the soothing ministrations of others,...."

On a more diluted level, I'm seeing some of this in discussions about teaching boys not to harass and assault girls.

Yes, boys/men are hurting, but it's not because of feminism and women who haven't finished fighting for equality for girls & women shouldn't be expected to down tools and take up the fight for boys. (Not saying they shouldn't if they want to, but it shouldn't be demanded.)

There's a lot of "What about the poor boys" going on at the moment, and I've been in two discussions today (on 2 separate platforms) where feminism 'taking it too far' has been blamed, as well as a guy suggesting that we move at the men's pace, otherwise we (feminism) just cause division.
