. . . I may be wrong but I'm inclined to give the benefit of the doubt from my perspective and say he needs a chance to develop positive relationships with women and the only way he will be able to do that is to put aside his views that society is against him.

I doubt I'm making sense.
I think your last sentence is spot on.
Wait. The last sentence, or the last last sentence?

I’m betting that you mean the former. : )

Depends on how you view feminism... Some feminists are feminist because of trauma. They have a bad experience of men. But yes, I over simplified and gave a gross description...
Yes, I am aware some people "view feminism" in that manner.

Unfortunately, it's an oversimplification that devalues and trivializes the thought processes and experiences of, in my opinion, the vast majority of people who support feminism, as well as the actual concept of feminism.
Don't want to not reply but don't have a response. Have read and acknowledge. :)

I voted other. A person who has reduced relationships down to the level most of the discussions here place them isn't talking about healthy relationships, period, regardless of the relative ages of the folks involved.
Agreed, although I didn’t vote.
This is BS. The discussions about relationships are where many people disagree with me. Most of the time, I am simply responding to what people are saying.
