Are you saying sexual advancements at the workplace, dare I say sexual harassment, isn't a big deal that it warrants a sarcastic response, or does it only warrant such a response when it's a man experiencing it?
Can you tell me again how you're not trying to target people when you belittle everyone who doesn't agree that the boogeyman is behind every corner?
Absolutely. We are emotional beings, we are subjective beings, and it's easy to get caught up in one's own pain and forget about what others go through. But empathy is such an important virtue, and if we really want to try to make this a better world, we need never to forget - everyone is fighting their own battles, and bad things can happen to anyone and be perpetrated by anyone.
I think, ultimately (and I apologise for speaking out of turn in such a way) that OPs heart is in the right place, but that they're very caught up in their own pain right now and so lashing out at anyone who may be perceived as complicit in that. I can empathize... I used to be a lot angrier about these things too, and conducted myself similarly. It took growing up and working on getting past my own traumas to find that middle ground. It is so important that with divisive issues such as this we never forget that's a human on the other end of things.. we all have our trials to deal with, and those will color our perspectives.
Seriously Guys..

This is where I disagree with OP. Sexual harassment can happen to anyone, by anyone.
