As a man I don't feel patronized by that comment and the women I know aren't so fragile as to need to believe women can't be criticized. Why manufacture outrage if you don't have to?

I'm not sure op is manufacturing outrage. I'm not outraged but I am mildly annoyed that someone would assume me and my buddies would turn an office into barracks because that's "just what young men do."

More likely we'd turn it into the ultimate LAN party environment or something.

Being annoyed is a choice, though. Why do it if you don't have to?

I am only saying something because someone else claimed there's no reason to be annoyed.

I'm allowed to react to external input however I choose, and allowed to voice my emotions regarding such input.

Why say a reductive statement about all young men if you don't have to? Being annoying is a choice.
