> It's not as he presented his case as stone-cold fact and call me crazy, but aren't personal anecdotal experiences exactly the things that give birth to opinion?

We are talking about the experiences/opinions of a man about sexist treatment of women.

While the author is totally entitled to that opinion and speech, why would anyone be surprised that people got angry about the post?
