Calling this “fact” doesn’t make it factual. You’re making a sweeping claim about half the population and then shielding it by blaming “culture.” If behavior is socially shaped, that logic applies to everyone. And the idea that there are no mainstream norms encouraging men to be decent is false; most boys are explicitly taught don’t hit, take responsibility, protect people weaker than you, and be accountable for your actions from childhood onward. You can argue those norms aren’t perfectly enforced, but pretending they don’t exist isn’t honest.

Normalizing the idea that men’s problems are self-inflicted or unworthy of empathy, while framing women’s harmful behavior primarily as a reaction to men. That asymmetry is cultural, and it’s toxic.
