Very good comments that express key points:

• Detailed summary of the situation if you’re wondering what’s going on
• The rhetorical value of the bear hypothetical and what this means for you
• One example of why the long-term rhetorical value of the hypothetical is poor, in the context of intersectionality
• What does disenfranchisement mean in this context?
• The importance of not asking women to tone down their expressions of fear and frustration
• “But why can’t they just say it nicely?”
• The importance of participation in kindness toward young men, specifically outside the context of people speaking their experiences
