  Several women in the article certainly seem to be regretting the outcome of their collective actions: "“It’s a contest to see who cares less, and guys win a lot at caring less,” Amanda says." "“No, like 90 percent,” said Ashley (the same as mentioned earlier). “I’m hoping to find the 10 percent somewhere. But every boy I’ve ever met is a fuckboy.”" As for the rest...you keep wanting to insert the "all" qualifier into things as though that is some kind of legitimate critique. The use of "women" instead of "all women" is intentional, as it denotes a sort of large number instead of universality. If I'd said "all women", "all men", etc., I would agree with your critique--but I didn't. You're basically talking past my observations. Your inaccurate assumptions are not those that I used anywhere in my reasoning, least of all because of your insistence on prepending "all" in front of everything. And being rejected by a woman still doesn't give you the right to be an asshole. On Hacker News we do tend to shy away from namecalling. :)
