    Cherry picking out parts to remove context is a pretty lame way to “win” an argument bro.

    Here’s that segment which doesn’t intentionally remove relevant context:

    … which understandably has led to the assumption that as a man I’m probably an asshole too.

    Which is—fairly clearly—saying that I understand why others might make an assumption about me.

      So you assume that other people think that you are an asshole doesn’t actually mean that you think that you are an asshole? It isn’t cherry-picking when discussion started with you generalizing about “men” being not_good by default. There is little that is understandable about such a position, have you tried not to have negative assumptions about yourself and other people that you don’t know?
