Women can roughhouse to bond. They do it all the time. But that isn't what I'm talking about, and you know it. Apparently having female friends hasn't taught you much about broader dynamics of women's issues.

Women get women only places to be SAFE from men, not because they can't handle men having access to power. The premise is very different. For example, I'd have no problem with men having male-only gyms if they were so afraid of being sexually attacked by women they couldn't work out in peace.

The problem isn't men needing anything, so you can take that poor pity cap off and get out of the corner. The problem is men expecting everyone else to supply them with what they need because any other option doesn't even cross their mind.

If you seriously think women aren't largely treated as objectives, your head is so far in the sand, there's no hope of me digging it out. Good luck to you.

They can roughhouse to bond, but they don't generally, not as much as boys. Also girls and boys don't roughhouse as well together because guys are much stronger and go a lot further.

You are massively over exaggerating the rate of men on women crime in a gym. That low rate isn't reason enough.

This is the problem you can't see men need anything. That's the whole point! That's it right there, you just keep proving my point. All you can see is women need x so that must mean men need nothing. That's not fair. I haven't once stated women don't need anything, I have nothing against women having female only spaces but in the spirit of equality men should equally have their own private spaces because they need them too. This is why there are women's only refuges for domestic violence but when one gets set up for men it gets protestors outside of it and it get closed down. Men aren't allowed anything they need.

No I don't think women are largely treated as objects you just got a victim complex. Women can be and are treated as objects but not largely. I am also able to see that is a problem in society, but unlike you I'm also able to see that men have issues in society which is an incomprehensible concept to you for some reason.
