I had a creative writing class in college and one of my classmates wrote a story about a woman walking home alone after a party, and did a really great job of describing how nervous she was. One of the men in the class gave feedback that it wasn't really realistic, why was this woman scared? She was walking home from a party, shouldn't she be riding the high of having fun with her friends? Shouldn't she be thinking about the good times? Why on earth would she just be nervous walking home after a fun event?

Every woman in the class, including the professor, was like "absolutely the fuck not." And we tried so hard to explain to this man that no, actually, we'll think about the fun times after we're at our destination and have texted our friends we got home safe but we don't get the luxury of riding the high of a good time when we're walking alone at night. He didn't get it, just kept doubling down.

This reminds me of my own experiences in a creative writing class... when A WOMAN wrote an essay about how women need to be nice to men cat-calling them, otherwise they can only blame themselves when those men become violent towards them. Even the men in the class were like wtf.

A literal room full of women all correcting him about *women's* experience and still he's like "nah, I as the lone man in this conversation must be correct."
