Found this video and thought I'd share it. These guys are right on the money about the "women and children" phrase and how it's equally sexist against both men and women alike. I know I've ranted about this before many times but I felt this was worth sharing here. I hate this phrase and feel it's long overdue to be stricken. It's anti-male for obvious reasons, but also anti-female in how it absolves women of agency and infantalizes them. Being male doesn't mean you're an invincible superhero and every woman and child is vulnerable and helpless, and requires your sacrifice.

It's even worse when "children" is changed to "girls," which is something we're seeing in recent times. It's bad enough men for so long have had their rights, safety and welfare completely disregarded and are regarded as disposable and of no value. But for that to extend to boys who are just learning to exist and have their whole lives and futures ahead of them? That's just a whole other level of cruel and evil and unfair. Don't get me started on the "male violence against women and girls" BS. So ignore and disregard the fact there's also female violence against men/boys in high numbers and is just as despicable as it's counterpart? And them to claim somehow MVAWG is an "epidemic."
