I really, really am not a MRA or anything like that--I identify myself to other people as a feminist. This line still bothered me;

    Also, men. You knew, in a vague way, that men thought about sex all the time. But you didn’t realize the, um, content of some of their sexual fantasies. Is it even legal to fantasize about that? You want to be disgusted with them. But you realize that if you were as horny as they were all the time, you’d do much the same.

Idk, maybe I'm the exception, but I'm not exactly consumed by kinky sexual fantasies every day at the slightest provocation. I'm not going to launch into some bullshit about how oppressed and stereotyped men are, because it's simply not true in my opinion, but I just didn't appreciate this stereotype making an appearance.

That being said, the rest of the article was a really fun read! I really liked how the stories all started interacting with one another.
