During the course of the week, the subject of intense debate on Twitter Africa was domestic violence, specifically the ratio of men to women, who kill or batter their significant others in relationships.
Jasper- @JajaPhD- took a major beating when he posited that male violence carried out by women should not be swept under the carpet and women screaming for his head should take several seats because ‘ NotAllMenAreTrash’.

Digital marketer and comic writer, Justin Irabor, explains why such a position is terribly self-righteous and contemptuous of women’s struggles.

Being a man is not a privilege by any stretch of imagination.

The inverse of this applies. That some people raped and murdered doesn't mean I did too. Or does it? https://t.co/o5J998YOCG

I figure one of the reasons guys are afraid to take sides against other guys on issues involving gender is this virtue signalling thing.

And not in a general sense. Virtue signalling with sex being the endgame. "Look at me, I'm a good guy. Have sex with me, maybe".
