At the expense of sounding crass, that sounds like a personal problem between you and he, not you and the HN community (assuming you are the OP of this blog post).

I happen to be the OP. You asked for an example. I gave the first real life example that came to mind. No, not all men are like that. But some absolutely are.

Thanks.
