alwayshere Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Seriously....since women in general do the following: Refuse to make the first move Never have sex once they get married Trick men into a commitment for the moneybags Love their children more than their spouse Are all victims Won't put out even after a nice dinner Hate all men Won't allow a man to show feeling Don't have enough freedom with sex Have too much freedom with sex I could go on and on. If that is how you really feel about women, WHY do you want to be in the same room with us, let alone date or marry any of us?

Is this the reason for the thread? Ya got me. I know lots of great men, friends, family, work acquaintances. I have had some close male friends. I've never heard this much talk of how awful women are. I mean, I know a few crappy women I wouldn't wish on an enemy. But it isn't all or even most of us, I don't think. Just like I know some rotten men. But I think most men are good people who do the best they can. Call me Pollyanna.

Just like I know some rotten men. But I think most men are good people who do the best they can. Call me Pollyanna. This post by TBF a few months ago makes an excellent point. I would have always self-described as a feminist, but I never realized just how embattled a position that might be, and how virulently angry certain people are about that single word, until I came to LS. It has certainly been eye-opening. It's the unfortunate effect of the Internet, I'm afraid - the loudest, most obnoxious voices become concentrated and feed off of one another, creating an echo chamber that is not an accurate reflection of the real world - but an all-too-accurate indication of some of its scarier elements. LS attracts all types, likely including PUAhaters like Elliott Rodgers who are among the most virulently misogynist. But there are some calmer voices here too - search for them; it makes it worthwhile and can be deeply reassuring.
Radu Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 (edited) Well ... i'm sure the kind of ppl who make these sweeping generalizations [and threads like the OP's] deserve what they get. So what exactly are you hoping to accomplish, making threads like this with a gender neutral user ? Edited June 2, 2014 by Radu

I DO need to read more universally and more closely. Thank you. AND you did it with humor and without calling me any nasty names 1
ponchsox Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 I certainly wouldn't want to date a woman who thinks those things to be true.
joystickd Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 There are good women out here. We all desire some companionship. At the end of the day any man that gets angry on here and vents doesn't hate women. They actually hate the situation. The issue is that a lot of men get on forums and vent. In the big scheme of things it's really a small less than single digit of the male population. I have actually asked some female user this same question but have yet to get an answer. 1
sillyanswer Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 I could go on and on. If that is how you really feel about women, WHY do you want to be in the same room with us, let alone date or marry any of us? Because boobies. 4

Just like I know some rotten men. But I think most men are good people who do the best they can. Call me Pollyanna. I don't suppose many men (or women) come to a relationship board to post how wonderful things are going with their partner or spouse. A lot of people come here hurt or hurting and anger/resentment and cynicism can be a response to hurt. So it is skewed. Also LTR and/or Marriage is often hard work, and can be painful. They say for better and for worse - but many don't go it to it thinking there will be "for the worse" parts. I also think our society as a whole has gone through some evolutions with women gaining the freedom to have the rights/freedoms and opportunities as men have had - including to opportunity to behave as badly as men (cheaters, sex users, etc). men on the other hand are simultaneously exploring their other sides as husbands/fathers and family leaders. tilting of the balance. Also in general our society has also ben less and less about compromise and sacrifice and giving in all areas of life and relationships - and entitlement, blame and complain about others.

Radu Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 See, you just made me think. I made my own generalization by starting this thread. I DO need to read more universally and more closely. Thank you. AND you did it with humor and without calling me any nasty names Np, but i would like to add something more. When i read your post, my first thought was 'another bitter male, let's see how many of these problems are actually real' ... and i started counting. It took reading every single post that was made after that, for me to maybe suspect that you are in fact female. And that changes things, because all of the sudden we go from 'bitter male' to 'bitter woman'/'sarcastic woman' ... which one is she ? Your username is gender neutral, it does not hint that you are female, and you have no gender specified in your info [at the time of writing my first post]. But what if the post is made by a female trying to rile up the masses, i've seen it before with 4chan and reddit female posters who tries to be one of the 'bro's' in that culture ... and who incidently has about the same femininity as grandma's wooden leg. Oh, the abundance of choices ... PS: On the subject of many men 'whining' about this. I assume you are a straight woman, or else your filter would pick up the reverse, women 'whining'. Most ppl who come to this forum do not come because of roses, fluffy stuff and happiness in their day to day lives with their SO. They come in their darkest hours, after one [or more] completely failed relationships trying to figure out those other actors.
2.50 a gallon Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 After 60 plus years, I have yet to meet a man who would look good in panties and a bra 1
Keenly Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 After 60 plus years, I have yet to meet a man who would look good in panties and a bra Let me just grab my camera real quick. 3
Woggle Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Most men on here are just venting in ways they can't in the real world. The internet is really the only place men have to share our feelings and experiences with relationships. With most guys all it is is venting because online is the only outlet some feel they have. 2
Author alwayshere Posted June 2, 2014 Author Posted June 2, 2014 After 60 plus years, I have yet to meet a man who would look good in panties and a bra http://img.mylot.com/2384067.jpg Radu has made me think even more. And on a Monday.... I am not bitter. In fact, I think bitterness is a good way to miss out on great things because you're so busy investigating what is probably wrong with them I do plead guilty to sarcasm from time to time. But mostly I was a bit sad that it seemed lots of really great women had to suffer for the sins of a few spoiled bitties. It is finny to me that someone would not be able to guess which gender I am. I always thought it was obvious lol. Apparently I don't write in pink
carhill Posted June 2, 2014 Posted June 2, 2014 Why do you want a woman? I don't right now but when that was a part of my life, it was pretty simple. She could offer me warm cuddles, some emotional intimacy, and sex; something I couldn't get from (nor give to) my best male friend or circle of male friends. With that part of life concluded, I find it to be very satisfying to have healthy male friendships, as well as platonic female friendships, and I'll leave the ladies to the men who are still genuinely pursuing them for whatever their reasons are. Marriage cured me of whatever ailed me before. Reality is an excellent teacher.
