There’s nothing about the movie that should be offensive to a man. It is critical of how the patriarchy impacts both men and women. Any offense is directed at the patriarchy itself. If a man finds that offensive, they should evaluate which parts of the patriarchy they so closely identify with.

That’s not entirely true, there’s a lot of rhetoric in the film that implies that men as a whole are trying to keep women down, and also that most men will thoughtlessly catcall, tease, or slap the butt of random women whenever they feel like it. Being portrayed as “bad by default” is a fair reason to be offended.
