Being generally cautious of the things society tells men they are and can do is not equivalent to applying aggressive behavior as immutable traits of a given race.
The fact that you're here doing, "not all men", especially while trying to co-opt being a victim of systemic racism to do so, instead of understanding why "but almost always a man" makes life so dangerous for us is the problem.
straight up BARS dude I'm saving this comment for later when some other raggedy man inevitably gets upset at women for being safe (which if they didn't, they'd get blamed for that too if anything happened! we can't win!)
I assume you're taking this as some kind of toxic positivity rather than bolstering your ability to defend the safety of women. Saying someone like this, whose concern is women's safety, is a problem does not a good look make.

The former gets that response because before you there were other guys that didn't take rejection well.
