I think what we're seeing is different work environments and different subcultures. The experience is not universal between, say, rural vs. inner-city; between left- and right- leaning areas; in different companies. A man might need to "walk on egg-shells" if, say, he's working in a queer arts club in new york, where "walking on egg-shells" might mean e.g. he could get fired for opining that the phrase "toxic masculinity" is sexist. But this won't really resonate with, say, a black woman working at mcdonald's in texas who overhears her male coworkers say racist and sexist shit all the time.
