"And its not for you to say what is the duty of men, anymore than it is not for me to say what is the duty of women."
No? Has no person then the right to say what the duty of another is? If this is so, then the concept of "duty" is meaningless. In truth, I have noted that most people in this culture seem to find little meaning in it.
"You are assuming that all men hold the same opinion."
No. I am stating my own opinion. If other men disagree with me, they are free to disagree. If all men, or a majority of men, disagreed with me, then women would no longer be defended by them. Since that is clearly not the case, it is plain that the majority of men do not in fact disagree.

"Is there a "male urge" to defend women?"
Yes. Read history.
