That reaction of doubling-down in response to sexism and the (sometimes impolitely stated, but most often true) accusations of masculine malfeasance in broader society is, itself, mostly created by social circumstances - how we socialize young men. Again, they are not *born* like that, they are not **born** as people who will become more sexist if accused of sexism or shown sexism in broader society, inherently; they are **damaged into** creatures which react like that. We must understand where this happens, how this happens - in the very **many** ways that it does happen - and how to counter it when removing the circumstances is not an immediate option.
