To all the people saying, good luck, this is centuries of socialization, and men don’t correct other men, etc, let me point out that there used to be such a thing (and not exactly in prehistoric days) when “defending a lady’s honor” was a thing. Men very much policed each other’s social behavior, still do in fact. Men teach men how to act like men and women teach women how to act like women.

When I first read this article I was skeptical and then I remembered all the ways in which people used to be behave differently.
