INSIGHT

Women’s Unique Vulnerability

  • Women experience heightened vulnerability to sexual coercion, infections, and physical harm compared to men.
  • Men should ask what women fear and proactively alleviate those anxieties to avoid signaling threat.
ADVICE

Subjectify, Don’t Objectify

  • Subjectify women: treat them as full people with beliefs, desires, and legitimate concerns.
  • Respect and acknowledge those concerns rather than reducing women to bodies or numbers.
ANECDOTE

  • Imagine walking into a gay bar full of men the size of Ray Lewis who could overpower you at will.
