You absolutely did. How and when should not matter when a victim comes forward no matter their gender. And intent of a victim coming forward...Really? What exactly is the intent of a victim sharing their story? to be told to shut up?
Like I said it's disgusting that men sharing their stories of harassment are being told they are in the wrong for doing so.
Comparing my argument that shaming men into silence about being victims because it's not the right time is wrong to the All lives matter argument is the straw man in this thread.

Why now?
The sharing I have seen is the defense of a gender saying it's not only us and not an honest conversation. Your experience may be different
Also why is it necessary to include the hashtag rather than just discuss it.
You also miss the point of the analogy. It's that off topic discussion is shunned. Not the animosity between the fan groups. You may choose to intentionally misinterpret it if you want to.
