Guys like to flirt with attractive women. It's part of our nature.

Your response is a non sequitur, because my comments weren't about flirting. The behavior described in this article groping and other physical contact without consent are "illegal acts against women".

Your statement was "Men have got to learn to control themselves", taking isolated incidents of illegal behavior (groping) and projecting it onto men as a class, as something men as a class need to address.

You would probably have a negative response to somebody saying "women need to stop being sluts".

Yes, some men grope. Some men murder and engage in acts of genocide, too (and women do various illegal acts too). Yet saying "men (as a class) need to learn to control themselves" is not a productive plan.
