Okay. Let's think this through.

If it's only an American or western thing, then even if it were man bashing, it would only be bashing American and Western men. Not All Men.

Given how so many other cultures love to bash American culture or western culture, I'm a little lost.

What's the problem here? A chance to bash American/western culture has been handed to you on a silver platter.

Why does that hurt your feelings?

Why are you making it be about all men, when you clearly understand it is not?
