I had a long conversation with a friend tonight. She told me that she had considered suicide while driving home today as a result of some ongoing emotional trauma from a past experience. She'd been raped a number of years ago and hadn't ever fully dealt with the emotional and mental trauma resulting from that.
There aren't many situations where I find myself struggling for words, but this is one of them. How do I, as a man, respond to someone's deep emotional trauma that was caused by another man?
I'll tell you what...I hate that man who caused that trauma. I hate him for putting me in a position where I have to second guess everything I know, and everything I want to say.
More than that, I hate that he ever laid a hand on someone who has become a very dear friend to 
So here's what's going to happen, my fellow steemians...I'm not going to take it any more. If you decide to post things that are sexist, racist, demeaning to other people, or pretty much anything where the value of your post is by diminishing someone else's value...You'll get a comment from me. And if you're willing to engage in reasonable conversation, then we will have a chat. If you're not willing, then I'll call you out...publicly. I'll flag you. I will make sure that people know just what kind of a person you are, and I will not back down.
You see, there are too many people out there, too many men out there who aren't saying anything about the casual sexism, racism, sexual harassment, and other shit that happens. And that stops now.
Capisce?
