This article and my comment are about sexual assault and consent. How does what you’ve said in any way address those issues?

Surely your opinion is important, but it’s regarding an altogether different topic. I can’t think of anything more frustrating right now than trying to have an in-depth and honest conversation about a topic and having some unreletead and lengthy defense.

My response is towards a specific phrase (and incredulity) from the parent.

The parent is wondering “why” men at large would be so defensive and not engage as the author of the main article has. I sought to share my particular feelings, I’m not sure why that is frustrating to you.

It’s frustrating because while your point of view is helpful and feelings are valid it’s entirely misdirected since you don’t reference at all the issues being discussed.
