Agreed.  I think the problem with some journalists and why they evoke such strong reactions is they themselves use divisive language and introduce identity politics wherever they can into an issue.  Even in this article, the author points out than Renzetti made a generalization about men; how did they not expect that to devolve into a spat?  

As usual though the quality of the writing at the Globe slides downward.  I guarantee it's nothing about women, in fact, the only contributor here in which I see any remaining semblance of being smart is Mrs. Wente.  Similarly, Blatchford at the post is one of their best columnists.  Very smart ladies, but the younger ones always seem to want to revert to identity politics, same as the democrats.

Anyway, real problem is this editor doesn't take a look at their own actions for why the result might be that way - it's always someone else's fault or must be sexism.  We're smarter than that Sylvia.
