    That entire question was just pure rage bait from the start, without even resulting in any useful data

    To whoever asked the question in the first place, I congratulate you for comming up with the perfect rage bait question.

      That entire question was just pure rage bait

      Isn’t that the point though? The fact that the question was asked and rather than think “shit, could we be better?”, some men are literally seething with anger about it?

        I imagine that black men view the question as particularly insulting

        Because we live in a country that already perceives black men as animals.

        So seeing so many women recently affirm that perception likely is extremely isolating. Because this is the sort of ideology that gets black men murdered

          why would black men find a thread full of comments about women fearing for their safety to be insulting?

            Because white tears cause black scars. As Emmitt Till found out

            When men are seen as threats, this translates into the murder of men, particularly those who are in national minority groups. Black, brown, immigrant, Muslim, etc men are threatened by this type of discourse, at least within the United States

            Which is kind of what BLM was all about - that black men are just people and are not dangerous super predators like many white people, including white women, seem to think
