In all seriousness, what are men supposed to do with this besides feel bad?
Or is that the point?
If it's not about you then don't worry about it
For some of us, like certain spans of the autistic spectrum, that really isn't a simple ask.
Because we do worry. We do feel empathy. We can't help but feel like we're still being lumped in.
We are already so paranoid from a lifetime of being blamed for every little deviation that it's just more of the same.
The idea is expressed for catharsis. It's only going to push awful people further into caustic masculine behaviors. So it's not actually directed at them, its target audience is other folk who have to deal with their awful behaviors.
As long as you're not unnecessarily approaching strangers in public and you build trust in your personal relationships then you can safely ignore it.
Edit: actually you kind of need to once you understand the problem being described or your mental health will take a severe hit. Talking from experience here...
