    My ex girlfriend tried to stab me in my sleep. But I guess I should feel lucky since it’s so statistically unlikely.

      The worst part - it’s not statistically unlikely at all!

      Men often are at the receiving end of physical and psychological abuse, including by women. Such cases are often dismissed by society, worsening the traumatic experience.

      You’re confusing two things. On a personal level, you’re not lucky. The moment something happens, everything changes for the person it happened to. Same with rare illnesses or side effects of drugs or vaccinations.

      What doesn’t change is that men go on first dates without taking precautions. I hope that helped
