The backlash when there's progress part is undoubtably real; I saw at least a couple of people who were nominally egalitarian just flat out refuse to believe that #metoo was real, for example. And when someone points out to the meeting chair that they have asked the only non-male person to take the minutes again they basically have the choice of deciding they want to change or just deciding that maybe "the women" were really always the problem after all. Doesn't stop the pushback grossing me out though!

The backlash when there's progress part is undoubtably real; I saw at least a couple of people who were nominally egalitarian just flat out refuse to believe that [#metoo](https://bonfire.mavnn.eu/hashtag/metoo) was real, for example. And when someone points out to the meeting chair that they have asked the only non-male person to take the minutes _again_ they basically have the choice of deciding they want to change or just deciding that maybe "the women" were really always the problem after all.
