  Men are scared women will laugh in their face

  Counterpoint: archive.ph/s0bTd

  An innocen man lost his career, his wife and children, and his home. That’s a little more than “a laugh to the face”.

  And she only got caught because she went to the police. The vast majority of accusations are designed to never come even remotely close to anything properly investigative. They’re meant to impart the maximum amount of social and economic destruction with a minimum of accountability - and preferably none at all.

  Cherry on top:

  As for the good Samaritan, he says the incident has deterred him from helping a young woman ever again.

  And a large number of men are learning from the misfortunes of other men, rather than experiencing such pain and destruction personally. This is why “chivalry” is dead. And good riddance.

    I would like to note the man in your example is still alive, which is not a courtesy always extended to women

    No, the vast majority of accusations are not designed, they’re just the truth. Sounds like this dude was already sexist though, why would this only keep him from helping women of a vague-yet-predetermined age? Anyone could make such a claim and ruin someone’s life. If he said he refused to help people of the same skin color as her, would that justify being racist? This woman clearly has a diagnosable mental disorder, it doesn’t exactly point to a gender-wide conspiracy, and it certainly doesn’t belie the claim that women have more to fear from men than men do from women. Chivalry should die, it’s just window dressing for systemic gender inequality.
