> Or, no more so than a woman staying with a man who takes his depression out on her. Which is a very dangerous thing, indeed.

So by your own words, you agree that telling men to stay with women who take their depression out on them is a dangerous thing.

> One of which is that men who can't hold their shit together are by definition more dangerous and harmful than women who can't.

By which definition? You're completely wrong here. The problem isn't that it's an "old times view", it's that it's dangerous and sexist.

What do you mean by dangerous? Violent? Or what?

> than the prevalent young male attitudes that expose them to the same violence than males approach other males with.

Honestly, I don’t know which reality you live in but if anything violence in regular relationships is being shunned and denormalized more and more.

Also, you can’t keep the “good parts” of sexism and hope the bad ones (such as domestic violence) disappear.

And I never said dangerous and sexist are the same thing. They’re different, and your argument is both of them.
