Men are just like that is an excuse for sexist incidents, particularly sexualized environment incidents. It is an essentialist argument and usually takes one of the following forms: * Men are biologically compelled to make fairly indiscriminate sexual advances towards women. * Men are naturally deficient in social graces. * Women should have pity on men and educate them gently due to their natural deficiencies in social graces.

abstract
  • Men are just like that is an excuse for sexist incidents, particularly sexualized environment incidents. It is an essentialist argument and usually takes one of the following forms: * Men are biologically compelled to make fairly indiscriminate sexual advances towards women. * Men are naturally deficient in social graces. * Women should have pity on men and educate them gently due to their natural deficiencies in social graces. The argument also fails to acknowledge that gay men, as well as asexual men — all of whom somehow manage to resist the alleged in-built male compulsion to make indiscriminate sexual advances towards women — exist. In the extreme case, this argument becomes an apology for violence against women; some people portray violence against women as a trait that men simply can't help. Feminists generally argue, as part of arguments against essentialism generally, that men and women do not innately differ in their ability to display social graces, or exhibit decent human behaviour, which feminists argue includes rejecting sexist behaviour. Proponents of "men are just like that", feminists argue, are anti-men in portraying men as inherently less moral and less self-controlled than women.
