I think if I'd been born in the stone age I'd have been one of the few dudes who stayed back with the women and made baskets while the men went out to hunt...
Thoughts?

Well one thing to keep in mind is the perspective you view them from. You don't date men so you won't get to know their true character right off. Perhaps you don't have many close male friends that you have much respect for so that and the fact that you don't date men means you see them in social situations where they are more prone to posturing and showing off.
You do date women and if you also have alot of female friends, you see their character when they are at their best in your relationship or as a close confidant and friend. You are privy to their true character and therefore have a higher respect for them. Plus if you have a lot of female friends that you care about and they share their relationship woes, it further gives you the impression that men suck.
I'd say it's pretty even across the board when comparing gender failings.
When I hear stories about guys cheating on their SO's or something else that is bad it almost embarasses me to be a guy.
Thats life though. There are some good people out there and then there are some bad people. One or a few people are not a representative of their entire gender. Everyone is different.

Yes, I would say so. In terms of character and integrity I don't think either gender really has it over the other. And for some reason it seems like it's almost considered evil or non-PC to be a man.

Is Woggle sitting next to you??
To the OP - I don't think there's that much of a disparity. I've met bitches and *******s of all kinds, men, women, transgender.
Like sally said, maybe it's just what you are exposed to. I think I remember on another thread you said that most of your friends are women? Correct me if I'm wrong.

Yeah that's true, most of my friends are women, but I have some really good male friends too.
I work retail, so I see many, many, many people each day... but then thinking about it I also live in an area with a much larger male population than average. Not only might that change my perception, it might also change the social dynamic between males and females in my area.
Also... a good portion of the men I see each day are military... and I'm going to phrase this very carefully but... the majority of GIs seem to personify the negative male traits I'm talking about, at least when traveling in packs, just like a football team. On the other hand I know some ex-GIs that are pretty cool.
...It just gets to me after a while. I think I just need a new job...

You think a man on a date is showing you his "true character?" I hate to burst your bubble but odds are... He is LYING TO YOU... Or at the very least putting on a show.
Most men are only completely honest with a woman for the 15 minutes or so after ejaculation, and only honest with a man after puking up 6 or 8 drinks.

No, I'm saying their mothers, sisters, GFs, and wifes know them better than you do and can probably tell you a lot of redeeming qualities about them that you don't have the chance to see.
If you think women, on average, are more honest than men you have a lot to learn, my man.
Naaahhh. Girls can be gossipy, and they can say one things and mean another, but that's not the same thing as being intentionally dishonest. It isn't... malicious, in most cases anyway, I know their are exceptions- Those 2 of the 10 who are stuck up psycho bitches.

There are people who are compatible to your personality type and others' who aren't. The ones who aren't compatible, will be the ones you notice more of the negative aspects of their personality. The ones who are compatible, you'll see with rose coloured glasses, if they're a romantic interest, or you'll accept their negative traits.
Most people fall in the above middle-ground area. Of course there will be extreme types where everyone loves them or everyone loves to hate them.
I think women are just as worse as men, but in different ways.
Women talk behind your back
Women stab you in the back
Women are vendictive
Women are competitive amongst themselves
Women are mindgames
Women are irrational
I find it hard to be friends with some women, but men are easier to have as friends. More easy going or something.
Still the only friends I've maintained for along time are women.
edit: I think also women are alot more judging about other women, then men are about other men. Like regardless what you've done or havent done, they will find that one thing about you that is bad and stick it to you face
