Most men will answer tree. There is a cultural narrative that women are not safe for men to be emotionally vulnerable with, that you can never know if a woman will attack you at your lowest with something you told them. This is not something they only do to men either, relational aggression is the primary means of female abuse. With that general ground work is the question sexist? I would say yes, it is guilty of the same thing the bear question is, it generalizes another human being.

We are at a point in history where assuming a bunch of things about another person is wrong. It is insane to have to say that to presumably adults but when you see a person and assume they are a criminal or a doctor based on nothing but their race or gender thats wrong. We know this in some cases, when a person says : insert racial slur here are all insert stereotype, sometimes they sofen it: you know Im not racist or anything I have X friend but if I see X I Y. It seems with men however it is okay to be sexist. Yet when men are emotionally vulnerable we see the outcomes and most importantly we dont see much or any push back from groups that claim to have the radical ideas or are about equality.

What do you think? If this became a trend and a bunch of women heard men would trust a tree more than women with a core aspect of humanity how would they react?
