You are a man. And finally it’s a man’s world. I don’t mean to sound cynical but reality is different and you actually don’t know anything at all.
Thank you for writing this. It’s uplifting and motivating.

I agree wholeheartedly. I do not know a thing and can never because I am a man. I can only write against the ugliness of the actions of my gender while hoping to not sound condescending to women. I agree with you completely that as a man I don’t know a thing because I have and never will experience what it is to be a woman in a man’s world
