It’s not viewed as abuse towards man. There’s a complete double standard.
I’m not putting this in the same category or even stratosphere as Weinstein, but go to the bars for a night here in Calgary and watch it with your own eyes. Groups of women have no problem cat calling guys, slapping their ass when they are walking by, walking into the men’s Washroom because there is less of a line. A man does those things and he probably catches a charge.
I’m in no means putting down the message behind this “me too” campaign but when I see some of my women friends on Facebook basically suggesting they are somewhat morally superior to men, I have to laugh as some of them are no better. Saying men Can’t be part of that campaign is pretty ridiculous. Kind of takes away from the campaign in my opinion.
Social media campaigns have a way of doing that though. Start out as something good, but everyone starts making them about themselves and the original message quickly gets left behind
