“I’d be afraid to be a male teacher. How easy would it be to give a girl student a grade a failing grade they deserve or just pissing them off any kind of way, but it’s a crazy one who ends up accusing you of something awful?

“This is the worst. I once took my daughter (who was four at the time) out of a store because she was having a tantrum, and she screamed and cried the whole way. As we were waiting in the car for my wife to finish up, a cop comes and knocks on my window, wanting to know why I’d taken a screaming child out of the store. Despite my (now calm) daughter saying that yes, I was her dad, and me having literally years worth of pictures of her on my phone, the guy was still super suspicious of the whole thing and was basically threatening to arrest me the whole time. It’s one of the scariest things that’s ever happened to me.”—agnol117

“My brother was allowed to do a lot of things I wasn’t, like explore the train tunnels and go hunting. I once envied that, but now I see it differently: men aren’t protected. From abusive women, from sexual assault, from dangerous jobs, from military service, from having custody of children taken from them, etc.”—deleted user
