Dude, I'm saying that as a man. I don't hate men, I just recognize that there are some flaws more common in men than in women. Not thinking before we speak is one of them. There are flaws more common in women than in men, too. Women are more likely to be cattier than men, for example.
There are two things wrong with your statement. One, that it's sexist, and two, that you're acting like it's an excuse when it really isn't.
I'm a woman and I have issues with not thinking before I speak, among other things. But I don't blame my problems on my gender... I fix them. Like when people fairly criticize me, I don't say "Too bad, I'm a girl so that's just how I am." Your gender isn't an excuse for your personality flaws. This is some "boys will be boys" shit.
"Source for any of that?" I don't have a source, I just have life experience. Maybe it's not something that's more common in men. I don't really care. It's not the main point of what I was trying to say. "acting like it's an excuse when it really isn't" No, I'm not. I'm saying that it's a possible reason, not an excuse. He most likely didn't mean anything by it and just spoke without thinking. That's all that I was saying.

Men don't always think before we speak.

That's not a gender problem, that's a you problem.

Source for any of that?

Your life experience is wrong and you should be ashamed. (Only half that sentence is correct)
