Because you're choosing to see it in a way that wasn't intended. It's been explained to you what's actually meant, taking it differently than a person intended initially is one thing, but doing so after it's been clarified is intentional. If you're going to intentionally take something someone said in a different way than they intended it, there really isn't any point of discussion is there? It doesn't matter what anyone says if someone decides not to understand what they're trying to say.

How and when aren't simply talking about men's issues, they're how and when.

You're putting words in my mouth again, I use the phrase "talking about men's issues", not "victim coming forward". You can't take what I say and redirect it at something I didn't intend.

It's not even a straw man.
