Guys, don’t do that

I don't agree with some of it.

When you jump in to solve a woman’s problems and valiantly save her from any possibility of failure or discomfort, YOU are patriarchy.

Men do this, not to women specifically, but just do. When faced with a problem, we try to solve it. It's not patriarchy, it's just a mindset. If you bring up a problem, you probably want some help with it. Women usually don't want help, but they don't state this in advance, and many men just don't know it.

I have a few girlfriends who should read this. They're always rescuing men who are under achievers, costing them financially and emotionally. It's have to be with a person who does act like an adult.

I would add that the justice system should treat women as responsible beings and give them the same sentences for the same crimes.

I see what she's getting it at, but sometimes people fuck up and as a friend you should help them (within reason, of course.)
