We've never seen a Year of the Woman because men are, broadly speaking, fragile children. If women get to be Ghostbusters, men lose their minds for weeks.
Maybe, just maybe, structural and institutional sexism is a real thing that we should all become aware of and deliberately choose to fight, and choosing to remain unaware of it is choosing to abet it.
"In service of denying that structural sexism exists, mediocre guy uses the unearned condescending superior tone he was gifted as a birthright of structural sexism" is fairly pure irony, for you irony fans.
As is "emotional guy certifies himself rational"

The reason the Ghostbusters movie was used as a example, by the way, is because of how many dudes are in capable of hearing a mention of it without loudly proclaiming how bad the Ghostbusters movie was, even if the quality of the movie is beside the point.
To repeat, men are, broadly speaking, fragile children.
If you’re psychologically distressed by even considering—much less combatting—structural sexism, imagine the meltdown that would accompany a woman as president.
