Patriarchy makes men the default. They think they're unique and special individuals, unlike women who are stereotyped as a group and treated as interchangeable. When you have narrative that runs counter to that, it hurts their sensibilities. That's why you have self-centered, tactless shit like #notallmen in the face of rape victims coming forward, because apparently, there's nothing more important in that moment than making sure everyone knew men shouldn't be held accountable for behavior they exhibit as a group.
