      I terrify my wife. When she comes home I hide next to the fridge and I say “BOO!” and I get her just about every time. Then I hug my kids and finish making dinner.

      Your pity party here is a self-fulfilling prophecy and screams white knight and all that. You can do better, get out of your head.

      News only reports like this and it skews peoples perceptions. For example, I’m a guy. This last weekend I took my friend and all her kids (all girls) out for amusement park, festival, swimming, gifts, and any food they wanted out weekend before school starts. I paid for everything. You won’t find it in the news, Why’d I do it, because they moved to a new city far away from their friends so I wanted to start all the girls on a very happy note for school starting.

      No one owes you examples. Men are not inherently evil and women are not inherently good. People, all people, have the capacity for both good and evil.
