This is a spin off of the other thread. Let's put some biases aside and admit when our own gender might be at fault.

 

One thing I will say about men is that some will complain about women being gold diggers and being treated as a walking wallet but at the same time will avoid women who don't need them for financial reasons. I understand nobody wants to feel disposable but they must low of themselves if they think a wallet is all they have to offer.

I think a man's idea of the ideal man is someone who is suave, collected, aggressive, and has the ability and skills to score with women.

 

I think a woman's idea of the ideal woman, is someone who is not scored upon.

 

As a man, I would complain that some men do not live up to my ideal of what a man is.

Some Transgender people complain of discrimination then behave in ways that confirm that discrimination. i.e. Job discrimination often leaves no real choice but some form of sex work. That does not mean you have to get hooked on crack.

Women do plenty of things that irritate me.

 

I especially despise the women who take no responsibility for their actions and decisions. The type that pop out kids they can't afford left and right with who ever, then look at the world like they're owed something. I think we should spay these sluts.

 

I also can't stand the type you see on the House Wives shows and other reality TV who think that acting like loud, uncivilized trash is somehow cute.

Some women can be very catty. I've met so many women like this over the years and these types of women drive me nuts and give those of us who are not like this a bad name.

Simps lol. Well its the opposite of pimps. On a deeper level some people call them simps because they give so women will be sympathetic to them.

My biggest criticism is the guys that are stuck on women that clearly rejected them and are focused on getting the no to change to a yes

Guys who never talk to women yet complain about not getting a date.

 

Girls who reject any man who approaches them, but only want men who don't really like them (just want their sex and nothing more).

Well this one is easy for me.

 

Desperation to be in a relationship.

 

Well I guess I have noticed this with both men and women but I notice it more with women lately.

 

They are in such a hurry to be in a relationship that they want their happily ever after to start like yesterday please.

 

They meet someone who has a lot of qualities that they like and then they latch on to the outcome instead of just letting a relationship build normally.

 

I have a girlfriend who is 48 and she has a goal to be married again by 50. She is very successful in her career and takes dating with the same enthusiasm and she is scaring the heck out of men because she moves too quickly. She could take 'how to lose a guy in 10 days' to a new level. 4 days maybe. :)

 

She's a total catch. Financially stable, attractive, fit, etc., etc. If she would just slow down she would probably have everything she wants in a guy. But she meets a guy she really likes and then scares the heck out of him in short order.

Men are weak to sex, and many men walk through most of their adult lives as slaves to their sexual desire. This weakness is partially the cause of all sorts of gender problems and misunderstandings.

 

Men can have fragile egos, and will become resentful and intimidated by other men for the most ridiculous reasons. Intimidate a man without even realizing it, and he will have knives in your back much more quickly than any woman will.

 

Men can be stupid. The average man doesn't read enough or know enough about the world around him, settling lazily into a rut of comfortable habituation.

 

Men can be annoyingly passive aggressive, alternating between a "my way or the highway" insistence and an annoying "whatever" lackadaisical attitude.

just as i anticipated

Speaking as a guy . . .

 

Men are far too quick to exploit women's weaknesses to keep them in bad relationships. Even nice guys are to slow to realize how much the answer to questions about appearance and emotional insecurity matter. Men are prone to cut too deep and blame the woman.

 

Sorry . . . I've spent a lot of time lately asking myself the type of man I want to be in my next relationship.

The fondness for Pop music

The fondness for reality tv

The overuse of fake tan

The constant competitiveness of some women, always have to be better than every other girl

Those ones that will drape themselves over your man even when you're standing next to them, just to get a rise out of you

Those ones that just have to talk in that ditsy way, no I'm like totally not your gf. :rolleyes:

Women who expect their men to be mindreaders:

 

"He should know what he did to make me feel ________. I shouldn't have to tell him."

 

"He should know what I want for Christmas/birthday/anniversary without my telling him."

 

Women who put up with bad behavior without saying anything or being very tentative about it, then suddenly leave the guy, who is hurt and clueless and who is willing to do anything to keep her.

 

Women who whine about their boyfriend/husband yet do nothing to change the situation even if it's obvious they should leave. It's as if most of these women have nothing else to talk about and nothing else in their lives.

Some... Well, most... Maybe all guys are too naively good and kind and innocent in the presence of the evil, conniving, heartless female gender.

Our gender will sell our souls to get some hot azz. We are desperate for sex.

 

We value looks in women and it costs us.

Posted

I'm sooooooooooooooo sick of these threads where men bash women. :rolleyes: Why don't you guys just get a room and leave more space for the men who don't mind women? Since the entire gender is bad, change your sexual preferences.

Posted

I'm not particularly critical of women. I guess if I had to say something, though, I'd say their expectation that the opposite sex read their minds/emotions. I don't know if most women are really even guilty of this, but I know I have been in the past, and I imagine other women are, too.

 

Other than that, I don't condemn women all that much. I can't exactly call them sluts, since I'm something of one myself, lol.

 

The biggest beef I have with women, honestly, is that they're competition. I get jealous.

 

I ran into an ex-boyfriend with his new girlfriend the other day, and afterwards I just kept thinking I can't stand her, even though I don't even know her.

Thinking your place can be outside of the kitchen ;):p

The modern woman's idea of cooking is microwaving a frozen dish.

 

Q: How does a Jewish woman call her family to dinner?

A: Everybody get in the car!

 

Q: Where does a Jewish husband hide his reserve funds?

A: Under the vacuum cleaner.

 

Yup, women first convinced men their place was not in the kitchen and the laundry room, and then they complain men don't want to get married. :laugh:

Guys who expect to get the hot girls and have nothing going on in their lives themselves. Guys who cockblock you just because they can't get the girl themselves. Guys who act all nice and sweet in front of their girlfriends but are total douchebags when amongst the guys when referring to their girlfriends. Guys who are always down on themselves about not getting dates or meeting girls but don't even try. Guys who try to pass off their insecurity onto others, especially the guys around me who don't get dates and try to discourage me from approaching girls. What I really don't like sometimes is the constant competition, like some huge dick measuring contest -- who's better at this, who's better at that, who's got the hottest girlfriend. I wish some would grow up. Guys who would do anything (and I mean anything) to please their girl in the hope to get sex.

 

I have my own inadequacies and insecurities but none of them are these. These are the ones I witness most from guys around me and even some of my friends. It's really sad that instead of working on oneself to become a better person, they would much rather bring others down to their level and blame other things.

That and some are just so bloody dramatic! It's so tiresome to be around and to hear about.

 

Jealously, and competition.. Not only over men, but over women too. This friend gets jealous that friend is spending more time or talking to this friend etc..etc.. Such high school behaviour, yet sadly with some women it carries on later in life.

Girls who drive aggression underground.

 

We're all aggressive... even women. There's this whole idea that if women ruled the world, or women were just "in touch" with themselves, we'd all sit around the campfire singing Koombaya. But women are just as competitive, and just as aggressive, as men.

 

The problem is a lot of girls don't like admitting that, because it's not "nice." Girls are taught to be passive and be friends with everybody. But instead of confronting the fact that such gender roles are confining and being honest with themselves, some girls will instead take their natural aggression and use it covertly, ie gossip and backstabbing.

 

I have a girl I considered a very close friend for over a year. I was interested in dating an old ex of hers (broke up years ago, only dated for a very short period of time.) When I asked her if it was okay, she was "Oh yeah fine!" Yet she c*ck blocked me every time, flirting with him herself when I was around even though she has a boyfriend. Turns out he told her flat out he liked me. Not only did she not tell me, but she told him I was crazy! When I confronted her about this dual behavior, she feigned ignorance and acted as if nothing was wrong to my face. I can't even discuss the issue with her without being accused of "causing drama."

 

I've run into far too many girls like that in my life. It's something I really admire about guys... if they have a problem with you, they'll either deal with you, deal with the problem themselves, or leave you alone. They're rarely nice to your face and then whisper about you behind your back.

 

Also the love of reality show baffles me to no end.

I said for people to criticize their own gender. This means both genders. I am not leaving men out of it.

The men that criticise women for acting entitled are right. A lot of girls especially when they are pretty think everyone should hold the door open for them and they don't have to say thank you, men should buy them drinks in bars all night, pick them up at the beginning of the night, drop them off at the end, have everything delivered to them on a plate (I blame the fathers that brought them up with those expectations by the way).

 

They will marry the biggest jerk because they feel they HAVE to be married by a certain age and have babies because they have very little ambition to do anything else. Then they are surprised when they realise they have to live with that decision and be treated really badly because they weren't smart enough to pick the right guy in the first place.

 

They aren't smart enough to work out how to earn respect in life and act helpless or as some kind of 'prize' when in fact they don't have that much to offer.
