Just to be clear what happened here, he made the point that if such sweeping negative stereotypes of other groups were thrown about it would be shocking and unacceptable, and your rebuttal(?) is that his examples are shocking and unacceptable and so you won't respond..? QED, I guess.

It says "even those men that claim to support and love women", so its not just "men", it really looks like she means all men.

Well domestic, emotional and mental labor aren't goods, they're services. And I didn't know what emotional labor was supposed to mean, so I read the linked blog post, and it seems to be saying that women who are angry because men won't listen to them have no duty to listen to men who are angry because women were angry at them; also that the author is in principle prepared to have a reasonable and constructive discussion about this under theoretical circumstances. So, I don't know, that's probably true, but the whole business is rotten from start to finish and I'm going to the park now to feed peanuts to squirrels and crows, until some angry human tells me I shouldn't.

Emotional labor, per the feminist that originally coined the term, is actual paid work (“labor” in the traditional sense) that involves presenting or maintaining certain emotions: think a customer service rep, or a waitress.
It has been repurposed by the radfem movement to mean something else. That something else is not super well defined but it has something to do with the coddling that unstable men presumably require to not retaliate against women.
