See, guys. This is how you do it. Notice the words “Not all men are like that” are never spoken.

He knows men are like that

his father was like that to his mother

he has experienced the pain firsthand, of what it’s like when men are like that

and he never wants men to be like that again and he fights tooth and nail against the men who are still like that

And moreover, he acknowledges his privilege [as an older white male who is famous/well known] and uses it to speak up. He knows what he is, and he never has to say he’s not like those men he fights against—he never says it, his actions speak loud enough for everyone else to see it. 

Sir Patrick Stewart, everyone.

I’ve loved Patrick Stewart since I was a kid in the 80′s watching Next Gen. He’s always been awesome, including his fabulous friendship with the amazing Ian McKellen: 

or fostering a sweet pitbull named Ginger:

he really is an amazingly good person. :)
