As I man, I'm fucking tired of hearing "It's just the nature of men." Or "All men do it." or "Men have always done it."
Here's your news flash: not all men are alike. By implying all men do it, you likewise imply that I am NOT a man for failing to do so.
I'm capable of separating my carnal thoughts from the words I utter, the products I make, and the marketing I use for them. Yes, I ENJOY HAVING SEX WITH FEMALES. Doesn't mean I have to make offensive assertions, regardless of whether or not another man thinks it is offensive. For me, it's called self control, and it's called social conscience. Even if it only offends 1 out of every 10 women, I'm making a positive contribution to society with little to no effort on my part, rather than justifying to myself that it's either not offensive, or so minor an issue that I shouldn't be concerned about it.
