Okay—here is something I’ve always found bizarre in women, and now the men are vocalising it, too.

I read this article a few days ago when it popped up on my facebook feed. One of the things that really struck me was how many of the men they interviewed were still at their workplaces at 8 and 9 p.m. or beyond. Or they said they worked 60 hours a week.

People get raped by…
