I want to see a Men’s March!

Watching this whole Kavanaugh mess and the series of sexual abuse allegations that preceded this one, I find myself asking a question. Why aren’t scores of good men standing loud and proud and tall protesting against their brothers? Why is it the women take to the streets and the halls of Congress protesting, being dragged away by police, and punished in the media?

There have to be a lot of good men in the world. There have to be men who have not sexually (or otherwise) abused women? If I were a man right now, I would be incensed at the men who have not only abused women but who now expect to be exonerated and who are being supported by other men to remain silent, deny all blame, and continue their lives as if they have done nothing wrong.

Where are the men’s marches? Why are you not rising up? Why aren’t you loudly showing your sons and daughters the difference between right and wrong by taking public stands about this and ensuring guilty men are appropriately punished?

I want to see Men’s Marches across the country. Will I?
