Sometimes, someone merely to vent, and reach out to a loved or trusted one about their frustration, or hell, their fearing their own safety, etc.
Why is it such a common, immediate reaction to go NOT ALL MEN ARE LIKE THAT?

Is it an ego thing? Is it a defensive mechanism? Is it a fear that they'll 'accuse' you of doing the same thing? That you're being demonized?

Or maybe that you didn't realize that you've done something similar and it feels bad to see it acknowledged?

Or perhaps a lack of understanding, or just disbelief and thinking they're saying these things for attention?
