Uh huh. Did you get your feelings hurt?

Number one, this was a rebuttal of a personal essay. A rebuke of one person's opinion and plea for female attention and empathy to help men based on moral equivocation. "It's the right thing to do" .... for men.

It's not a criminal trial so your use of restorative justice and cries about retribution are out of place, conflating, and frankly, hysterical.

Secondly, you're confusing a perceived desire for retribution or revenge with washing one's hands of someone/something. I don't desire to "get even" or whatever. What does that even mean? How can what has transpired in history ever be made right or be even? It can't. Therefore, it's a pointless exercise.

Your comment is an expression of your fear and loathing, not my anger.

Which brings us back around full circle to my original comment. Your feelings are yours. They are not my burden to bear. It's yours. Historical attempts to based on gender stereotypes has harmed all of my kind and all of your kind and gotten us nowhere or nowhere good.

Best of luck. But I'm putting my energy, efforts, resources, and heart where I can actually do some good (like finding the missing and working against trafficking, cleaning up habits and protecting water rights) and where there will be reciprocity (the more exploiters brought to justice the more deterrent of future crimes. We're all safer). There's no point in continuing to throw effort after foolishness.
