Generalize much? I know maybe 2 out of the hundreds of men I know who I would call bullies. In general, we need more masculinity, not less. Of course bullying in unacceptable. But redundant? Control freaks?

First, I pulled in to a park with 22 spaces. 1 car parked at the far end. I curved coming on so was slightly over the painted line. With no one there, I didn't back up & repark. Walked for 20 minutes and returned to a pre-printed card on my car "Learn to Park" etc. Really? No other cars around now. I didn't read the rest of the card.
IMO, if you didn't park straight, you should have recentered regardless of how many empty spaces ,were available. How do you know it was a man that left the card and not a "Karen"?

Second event, a very big man approached me in the dog park where I was with my service dog. He was wrong, but nevertheless it was how aggressive he was and went on endlessly even tho I left after telling him he was a bully. Hs kept yelling, babbling.I have never experienced such nonsense and didn't expect it in The Villages. The friendliest city? Not really.[/QUOTE]

He was wrong about what?

Again, male bullies are the exception rather than the rule. Female "Karens" are also the exception rather than the rule. Most everybody in TV is really nice.
