OSW, I've been happily married to my husband for nearly 30 years. He's an amazing, understanding man who has never condescended to me, abused me or shown any reaction other than horror when women are abused. He doesn't think I'm "bossy" or "pushy". He actually values my strong personality.
Most of the men I know are like that. I'm probably exposed to a particular slice of society that's rife with amazing men, and I've NEVER taken that for granted.
I don't know about the hashtag status, but "not all men" was a well known cliche prior to Elliot's shooting spree and the #yesallwomen dialogue. #yesallwomen was actually in response to that stupid argument (though really it's more of a derailing tactic than an argument).
