As I wrote you last night, society being trash and men being trash are not mutually exclusive, a point you actually make by saying "society MAKES men trash." If society makes men trash, then we're trash. Is it our fault? Collectively? no. Individually? of course.

But this is not about fault. It's about how things are. And how things are is that every day a find out about another prominent dude being terrible in ways that are specific to being a dude (and also men and women being terrible in ways which aren't gender specific). I was a huge fan of Al Franken's. For many years. In fact, of the 9 men I picked for my graphic there, 5 are men I have been a fan of. It is disheartening and upsetting. And really, that's what this post is: An expression of anger.
