An estimated 1/4 men admit to sexual coercion, but the title reads "not most men." (theconversation.com)

While true, this is not the point. Most women have been victims of sexual violence. Even if it was just one single man doing all of that, this would be a problem. An easier to fix problem certainly, but still a problem.

Of course, it's not just one man, but a significant minority of men. Numerous enough that this is not an easy problem to fix.

I don't think this will ever be fixed, but perhaps with education it can be made less bad.

Exactly. The title of this piece is infuriating. I mean... one out of four men might not be a majority, but it means that in a full elevator, at least one or two men are essentially willing to rape.
