What makes me sad is you truly missed my point.
I am trying to tell you that men live in fear of other men as much as women live in fear of men, its just more subtle and machismo causes most men to deny it. A misunderstanding or a fist fight can turn into a life or death struggle in one second's time. I am telling you that men have fear of other men as much as women have fear of other men. It makes me sad that you would try to deny the significance of this. Simply put, men kill and seriously injure each other all the time. Isn't FEAR OF DYING SIMILAR TO FEAR OF BEING RAPED?

Also, men are more likely to suffer violence from... other men.

Yes, precisely my point. You are saying men don't understand what women experience because of women's fear of sexual violence, I am telling you that is full of shit, because men are equally and constantly afraid of other men for similar threats of violence and even loss of life. If you can't understand that, I am sorry, but it doesn't make it any less true.

The way people try to normalize and equalize shit is disturbing.
Hate crime is not the same as regular crime.

Really? So people getting beat into a coma, stabbed, or shot dead in the street over a misunderstanding is just regular now? Who is trying to normalize what now
You need to step back from your computer, pause, breath, and reflect, because you are letting your anger and emotions get the better of your argument.
