I take your points to heart and I regret I didn't do a better job of labeling this article as giving voice to a specific set of valid points that some (not all) men justifiably express. I work with young men who are desperately suffering and some (not all) despite sincere attempts to get along and do the right thing end up slapped around and thrown away. I was just trying to give their perspective a voice. Thank you JD, I will do better....
