Contradiction in hashtag uses[edit]

The current version of this article only talks about the anti-false-accusation use of the #HimToo hashtag, but Me Too movement#HimToo says that the #HimToo tag was used for innocuous things, then started getting used in 2017 to mark incidents where males were subjected to sexual abuse, and then got crowded out by the anti-false-accusation thing. There seem to be sources for this, including https://www.npr.org/2018/10/11/656293787/-himtoo-left-and-right-embrace-opposing-takes-on-same-hashtag and https://www.wired.com/story/brett-kavanaugh-hearings-himtoo-metoo-christine-blasey-ford/ It appears that this Him Too movement article needs to be changed to clarify that the hashtag has at least two meanings, and by extension probably two different movements. Also, is there really a "Him Too movement" or "Him Too movements", or are we just being lazy and attaching the term "movement" now to any widespread use of an advocacy hashtag? --Closeapple (talk) 04:12, 24 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The article now explains that this hashtag was used with various different meanings before becoming popular as an anti-MeToo slogan. Robofish (talk) 13:27, 12 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
