They are, and it needs to be addressed.

Still, to bring it up there and then the way you did details the conversation already at hand rather than add to it. It does not consider the long history of gaslighting around domestic abuse women have had to fight against. What it took to get domestic abuse shelters funded and seen as necessary in the first place.

There were other, more appropriate ways to address the issue of support for male domestic violence victims than what you chose.

You could have written your own article, done an "in response to" long comment (that's pretty much your own article but is tied to the original thread), responded to the author privately via email, contacted your local government to request the issue be handled, started your own campaign of awareness, and so forth and so on.

Any one of those would have been a better option. It's not what you said, it's how you went about it. I'm not trying to bust your balls here, but this is an example of what women talk about when they mention male privilege. You didn't give a single thought about how that comment would land in that space, what it might do. You've never had to. When a woman, rather politely I might add, explained it to you, you casually dismissed her with yet another blind comment.
