Sure, I suppose. And that state of affairs won't change if more women who might be able to put up some resistance don't join. Maybe not your 14 year old cousin who's in the middle of a major depressive episode but it's not like all women will have a psychotic break when they are confronted with idiots. I can deal with it fine and I'm not exactly a paramount of mental health.
