I wonder why a man who does not commit violence against women should feel badly about himself when reading such an article?

I don't feel at all that the article is focusing on women as victims, nor is it allowing men to play victim. He's talking about solutions, not pointing fingers so much. He speaks honestly about the fact that violence is a problem, but I don't see how that could be denied.

I'd say that if you feel badly about yourself when reading this article then you have to look at why that is so?

I don't want to be a victim, and even in the face of violence from men I don't consider myself one. But I do think that there is a change to be made. And he's advocating that men, in their power, be the ones to lead the way. I find it inspiring and it actually does more to improve my view of men than to lower it. That's why I find it unusual that it would make you feel badly about yourself. I would rather think it would make you proud.
