I am not aspiring to be gender-neutral, nor did I think the language of the pledge attempted to be so. I also don't think it assumes what you say it assumes. What it does assume is a fact -- women face this kind of creepy behavior in hugely disproportionate numbers, and with hugely disproportionate societal support for male perpetrators.
It is what it is. As I like to say, I'll be post-feminist in the post-patriarchy (I didn't make it up, but it works for me).
