      When you start making people feel the need to defend themselves you’ve probably gone overboard on the generalization.

        only if that generalization isn’t against men and ‘majority’ groups. if you wanna bash white people, men, heterosexuality, etc. people pretty much give you free reign. especially in ‘left’ leaning spaces.

      …or to make generalizations in the first place.

      Look, if somebody says “ugh, women are so…” I’m going to assume they’re talking about me, if they don’t qualify with “some women”
