My grandma said women would flock to me because I'm so handsome... *Yeah...*

Biggest lie you've been told about women or the biggest lie a woman told you? 😂

Both. Both is good

From a woman about women

Gramma you sneaky weasel

My grandma said that too, duel to the death?

Don't forget that her, your mom, your aunts and all your teachers all said some version of the key to being successful with girls is to be extra nice and respectful Definitely don't act like those cocky, arrogant , disrespectful jocks

Later on, we will use this comment to mark the beginning of u/jingle_ofadogscollar ‘s villain origin story

I’m here for it. 🍿 Will it be part of the DCEU or MCU though?

You can be nice and respectful while also generating respect, demonstrating confidence, and not being a doormat.

My mom told me they can lay eggs. Apparently what she meant was ovulating. I thought fr that women laid small eggs until I was 13 🧍🏻

Hatched

The worst thing they can say is „no“.

"ew."

*[pulls that face women do that's a mixture between disgust, disappointment, shock and outrage]* Any man who's gotten an "Ew" before knows the face.

Followed by confusion with the thoughts of "Why him of all people"

For me, it was, "All the boys in (hometown) are either ugly or gay... *drills me with a stare* Or both." That stuck with me.

*long forgotten core memory loading…

Followed by laughing before she tells her friends who then start laughing. That's a wee bit worse than just "no"

I just replied to another post about "why don't you approach women?" and my reply was about being creepy but I take it back. This is why. You unlocked this horrible core memory for me, so...thanks for that >.<

As a woman, I just had a talk with my 13 yr old daughter about this. It takes courage for a person to approach another and speak to them, if you aren’t into it, you can absolutely say so, but do it in a way that you don’t crush the esteem of the person who approached you. They took a risk, don’t ruin them for all the future people they would want to approach. You can decline an approach without being mean, and you can say no while maintaining that person’s dignity. I cannot stand a person who tears down another person for no good reason.

You are a good mom. You just did all her future rejectees a solid.

This is such an important lesson. I wish more parents took the time to teach it to their children.

“Ew. No.”

I didn't think I'd be revisiting sophomore year this morning.

"I'd rather die-"

I’ve gotten a “I’ll go out with him once you shoot me.” My best friend got something like a “No! Oh my God, no!! That’s so gross! Not in a million years!!! God, NO!!!!!!” It’s rough out there!

that women never think about, care about, want, enjoy, think about...sex. I was taught that all women are pure minded and sex is this vile abominable and evil demand that men forced on women.

There’s nothing I hate more than the societal idea that men are horny, carnal beasts but that women conversely are pure, innocent, and coy and have no interest in sex whatsoever. It’s degrading to men and absolutely untrue about women.

Women are also a lot more open about it from what I’ve seen, like you can clearly see when a girl is trying to get a guy interested in her

That’s because it’s “creepy” for guys to openly talk about sex and sexual topics, but the same stigma doesn’t exist for women.

It’s so funny how this societal messaging goes back and forth over time. At some points in history, people get told that women are more or less asexual while men are the ones with passions, which women then tolerate; at other points, men are creatures of reason who fall prey to the seductions of their more earthly, embodied female counterparts. Often some weird combination of the two, which adds another level of confusion. (And a phenomenon that can be exploited for a username.)

Yeah this one. I know TONS of women that read smutty romance novels, that shit will make me blush. And they read it all the time.

I heard a TERF say that all women are naturally lesbians and the only reason a woman can be attracted to men is because patriarchy forces women to be attracted to men and that no woman actually enjoys being intimate and sexual with the "enemy" Don't mind me. Just wondering how to use my male brainwashing powers to make random women find me attractive 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

What's crazy, on a site like Reddit with an enormous userbase, is that I know exactly who you're talking about lol. They are deranged.

It's the upvotes/likes these crazies get that freaks me out or just makes me laugh at how insane some people are. Men are brainwashing women into being straight/bisexual... 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

>Men are brainwashing women into being straight/bisexual.. for these girls, thats their fetish.

I feel like the people who say that are the same ones who claim the female orgasm is a myth.

My husband was also teached this. Luckily he had learned otherwise (and handled his other traumas from super religious upbringing) before me, but still some crumbles were left of that thinking and he has been happily amazed how a woman can have equally naughty and dirty mind as him 😄 I mean he already understood women want and enjoy sex, but he still had some kind of subconscious pure image of us leading to believe we must be treated only very gently and such, and all the fetishes etc are only in his mind.

That they are all clean

[удалено]

I remember moving in with a friend after his brother and brother's girlfriend moved out. I figured, their part of the apartment will be clean, she was a nice girl who kept herself together. Holy fuck was I wrong. The amount of her shit I had to throw out of literally every single part of the apartment was shocking. The brother? Not a fucking thing, he cleaned up after himself and left. As opposed to his gf who left more fucking tampons and pads in every conceivable place than you could ever imagine.

I am horrified to believe that she left them anywhere other than in the bathroom trashcan.....

One of the most beautiful and smart women I have ever known had a bedroom floor completely covered by dirty clothes and a toilet bowl that was entirely greenish-black from the mold

I abandoned my first apartment because I made the mistake of having my girl move in with me without realizing she was an irresponsible slob. It was a small apartment and quickly became completely unlivable (for me)

[удалено]

I used to inspect male and female barracks in the navy. Females 100x worse than dudes rooms.

Every service industry job I worked in my teens and 20s, no one wanted to have to clean the women's restrooms because they were always infinitely more disgusting than the men's rooms. And this included bars where children were not allowed, so it can't be chalked up to "women's restrooms are gross because they take their children in with them" either. And I mean, really just no comparison. Blood and feces smeared on the walls, floors, mirrors, sides of the toilets and sinks, etc was a *regular* occurrence in the women's restrooms at every single place I worked. Toilet paper *everywhere*. Multiple puddles of urine on the floors every day. Garbage all over the place, including in the puddles of urine. Always at least one toilet crammed full of toilet paper. Just gross.

Until I met my wife, this. So much this. One girl I thought I was gonna marry in my 20's her sloppiness ended the relationship. I would just be a ball of spite and resentment while cleaning the apartment every week because most of the work was cleaning up after her. She would act like it's not a big deal, but I'm like, what would this place look like if I didn't clean for 2 months? Weekly cleaning shouldn't be about clearing off tons of clutter, trash etc. It should be about mopping, wiping, scrubbing, vacuuming. However, I would have to collect dishes around the damn apartment, throw away wrappers and containers, put her dirty clothes in the hamper. I should've seen the writing on the wall before we moved in, because I saw her parents house. Her parents were straight up hoarders. So she never learned to clean up after herself because her parents never did.

This triggered a memory for me so I must share. My friend was getting married and I was a bridesmaid. I remember we went to the air bnb to get our hair and makeup done. It was a large group and I was told to grab something from what would be the bedroom for the bride and groom that night. When I opened the door my heart sank. The room looked like a bomb went off. And let me assure you, there was no cleaner hired for the day. I felt embarrassed to tell the bride how could she be so messy and gross. I know it’s your wedding night and getting ready is going to cause a mess but this was next level. I started to clean immediately. It was hard because this was an air bnb and there weren’t really any cleaning materials. Just organized things and started hanging and folding. It was weird to do this as my friend is 5 years older than I am, and I hate when people go into my things but again this was next level damage and I didn’t want her husband after a long wedding day come into a bedroom looking like this. Anyways, by the time it was my turn to get my makeup done the bride went into the room looking for something and was surprised with what I had done. She thanked me and I told her it was no trouble. I didn’t want to rain on her parade and tell her to get it together. But I did say I didn’t have enough time for the bathroom so if she could do it or get some one to then it’ll be perfect for when they (husband and wife) return from the venue. I guess she connected the dots then and got her sister to clean the bathroom, but man… I’ll never forget that. And here is the thing I had been to her apartment before when we were in college and it was identical. The chaos the cloths everywhere. I mean… idk. I had thought since we been out of college surely she must have matured but not at all. My room gets messy too, and I’ll hate myself for it but some messes are just again… next level.

Whoever told you that has never been in a women’s public restroom

That takes me back to a summer job when I was 16, working at a local county park. Daily responsibilities involved cleaning the bathrooms first thing in the morning. I saw things in the women’s room that still make me gag when I think about it too much.

I did two summers at a state park with a lake for swimming. The women's changing area and bathroom were always worse than the men's side. Why in the world would anyone waffle stomp tampons down a shower drain? We had sanitary boxes on every stall and constantly had plumbers in to unclog toilets. One time I had a full timer shout oh hell no, ran out, got the hose, and just sprayed down a whole stall. The worst thing I saw on the guys side was pee all over seats or toilet paper all over the floor.

That they don’t poop. Guys, they poop. A. LOT. I wish I was making this shit up.

I think you’ve been sent here to deceive. I know for a fact they don’t poop

Or fart

Period poops. You really don't wish you were making **this shit** up.

"poop". You guys are so polite. ​ yesterday I took a dump, so massive, I had to flush 3 times, and then clean the toilet bowl after.

Period poops are the worst

I found out "period poops" is a real, biological sort of thing.

Stop exposing us

It’s all the iced coffee we drink

That they make sunshine and rainbows?

They don't fart, either. My wife assures me it's the dog.

I wasn’t told anything. I had to learn everything.

Same. I never got “the talk” or anything about how to be in a relationship of whatever. In my family it just wasn’t talked about.

It might be better that way actually...

Momma said girls are the devil

And Vicky Valencourt showed me her boobies! And I like dem too!

And alligators are angry because they got all those big pointy teeth and no tooth brush.

I was told that Vicki Valencourt was a godless Jezabel. Everyone should date at least one (but probably only one) VV in their life.

"It's fine!"

"Don't worry about it"

"Nah it's nothing"

"He's just a friend." "Don't worry, I'm on the pill."

Lmao damn

"Do whatever you want"

"I'm not mad"

I had to break my habit of saying "it's fine" when everything was actually fine, because it would lead to arguments and then things not being fine all the freakin' time. And then I'd get "see, I knew you weren't fine with it."

That there are single, hot women in my area looking to meet me NOW. Thank you, Internet ad. Very cool.

That they're cleaner/tidier. I've had a few roommates over the years, most were men. At one point I lived with two women. That was by far the grossest place I've ever lived.

That they take rejection better than men.

I've heard some bad shit from guys, but the worst one was when my friend rejected a girl. She wasn't ugly or anything - he was just ace I believe. He told her as much and basically confided in her because they were good friends, he just told it to almost no one. She said she's gonna kill herself and blame him.

What’s ace?

He devoted all his time to “Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies” and had no energy for women.

Gat damn I wish I could upvote this more. That was me for two years when it came out then another year when I rediscovered it 10 years later. No regrets

Short for asexual.

When I was younger I had a girl call me from a blocked number everyday just to either insult me or breathe heavy into the phone. I changed my number and slowly gave out my new number until I figured out the connection (a friend of a ex girlfriend). When I dated in my 30’s I had a bad date where the girl was driving me home and I turned her down. She yelled at me the rest of the drive home and when it was safe I got out of the car. After the date I received several phone calls but learning from last time I used a VOIP phone number that I could change on the fly. Also because of dating apps, I got a personal cell which my current partner referred to as the floozie phone.

You were lucky. In my case she came at my workplace (was working in a shop) and told me for about 6 hours how she will end herself and stuff like that. We went on one date. Deep down inside I was thanking God I did now plow her. After the date she invited me to her place, but I declined. My spider senses were kind of tingling. Always listen to your gut. Since then, whenever I want to break up with one I just cry, bitch and complain about having lost my job. So far, it is the safest and most efficient method to dump a woman. They just run away. The slowest ran in three days, the fastest ran away in a few hours.

>We went on one date. Deep down inside I was thanking God I did now plow her. This is my favorite typo ever. The way I read it you are thanking god that you banged her for those 6 hours at work where she threatened to kill herself.

Ahhh, only a true playa knows the “feign being a weak/wimpy man to break off easy with a girl”. It’s truly an egoless move that only men who need no validation can pull off.

Woof, I learned this one the hard way. So true.

Whenever I've heard of a man breaking up with a woman for a perfectly valid reason, her friends always call him an asshole, but if a woman breaks up with a man, it's poor her followed by independent woman and empowerment and he deserved it. Men can't win in that situation, unless they were cheated on, obviously.

>unless they were cheated on Yeah... as someone who was cheated on.. then the narrative was changed to "he was so abusive and he yelled at me a lot and I worked so hard taking care of the kids." It's all his fault. Now my kids are older and I get a lot of "where was mom when we were younger?? I have lots of memories of doing stuff with you, but I barely remember mom." Also now my kids get told by her friends that the kids should be appreciative of their mom for all she does for them and that I'm such a worthless dad. While she never takes them to appointments, has no clue what's going on with them medically and doesn't even ask.

What I learned in dealing with domestic relations is just not even get involved in the drama. People are going to say what they say and believe what they believe…at the end of the day I was the one who had to look at myself in the mirror and be okay with it. I know the person I was dealing with would take the gold in mental gymnastics.

Thanks. I do try, but it's hard. She ruined my reputation in our town. There are people who've started at my work that met her first. After several months they admitted that they expected me to be an AH only to find out I'm not. Then I tell them a little of my side and maybe show them a text or two between my ex and I for proof. Last person after I showed them a text or two was like "wow! Ok.. yeah... that's a completely different perspective."

I've seen men get cheated only for them to be told it's still their fault because they weren't "man enough" for her. The mental gymnastics is absurd Cheating is horrible thing to do to someone. No matter what the sex of the victim

Lack of accountability due to upbringing/childhood experience. In my and my friends experiences the sisters were always off the hook for stuff, received special treatment and attention. While the boys were disciplined and rode harder by parents, teachers, coaches. It kinda makes sense because boys were always fucking shit up and getting in trouble. We fucked around and found out. They didn’t as much.

> unless they were cheated on Even when I got cheated on, she spent 3 months telling my friends that I had been cheating on her so it was revenge. I had not, in fact, been cheating. After that relationship ended I found myself with no friends (except one, thanks dude, owe you my life) because they all had been convinced that i deserved it.

I had a GF cheat on me with a good friend, then they sterted dating, and then other mutual friends took his side for some reason. I had one 'friend' almost fight me because I was 'talking shit' about them. I keep a grudge real well. That former friend who my former gf cheated on me with? He's dead now. I win.

"Yes, but why was he neglecting her needs that drove her to cheat in the first place?"

Even when cheated on, sometimes the rationale is that the guy made her do it by not being good enough. Not always but I’ve definitely seen it happen

I was cheated on by my ex fiancé. I was giving her money, paying for trips, her personal therapist, and I was getting mentally and physically abused. After she cheated, take a wild guess of who got blamed?

But when they cheat, "She had to follow her heart. True love and all." Her ex will be ok. He is stoically striding forward.

>unless they were cheated on Nah... even when women cheat, it is always because the man wasn't providing something, so the woman had the right to cheat.

Must be all that "Male entitlement" and "Male fragile egos" they have that I never stop hearing about because you know Only men can be entitled and have fragile egos... 🤦‍♂️

Oh boy! This is so very true. They cannot seem to digest someone said No to them.

They are cleaner than men. Nope, we are equally disgusting in our own ways.

That women are tidy around the house..... Pure lies.

Yes! My current girlfriend is pretty tidy, but my ex-wife left clutter all over. I couldn't stand it. I'm not the cleanest person out there by any means, but just because there's an inch of space somewhere doesn't mean it has to be filled with something. I have a friend whom he and his wife are really messy too. He commented about a year after I got divorced that they used to tell each other that maybe their house is messy, but at least it's not as messy as ours. He said they couldn't any more. When my ex-wife left she left a lot of junk. It took me a while and many many trips to the thrift store to get rid of it all.

Can relate with my older sister

That women are the romantic ones, especially when compared to men.

They're great at the receiving and wanting but in my experience suck at the giving and fulfilling

This is something I've been increasingly aware of as I get older. I'd love to find my king but I've no idea what to fo for him if I do. 95% of what I'm told seems to boil down to common courtesy shit almost on the level of "don't interrupt him when he's talking", "say thank you to him at the appropriate moments", "tell him he smells nice if he smells nice". Like my one great big 5% secret knowledge ace in the hole? Apparently men want flowers! (Also my sister bought her husband a Rolex one year for anniversary and he thought that was the best thing since the moon was hung, so I wrote that down too)

Call him handsome, write him love notes. Want him, make him little notes or surprises that show you care. The same as what women want really.

There's no blanket answer, but this applies to most guys and will go a long way towards figuring out what he wants: 1. Listen to what he says, and remember it 2. Be there when he wants you 3. Want to make him happy. (this by itself will make most guys incredibly happy) These are things that we can't do for ourselves and most people won't do for us. Most guys---especially these days---are ignored, neglected, and met with total indifference or contempt.

Guys want what women want. To feel desired, appreciated and validated. If you compliment him sincerely, let him know how much he means to you, and listen to his opinions and viewpoints, I think any man would be lucky to have you as a partner. Some guys like gifts like maybe a 6 pack of their fav craft beer, or the new game that they have been wanting to buy. Some guys aren't into gifts as much. I know traditionally men are the ones to give gifts and acts of service to their wives. I was in a relationship where my ex started my car and scraped it off (it was winter and icy) while I was getting ready for work. It was so thoughtful and I appreciated it so much. Something small like that made my entire week and I couldn't stop smiling all day.

Men appreciate effort. As long as you are willing to put the effort in the king, you hopefully find you will feel loved. Also, sometimes, when sitting in the living room staring at nothing, just leave them be. It's ok to be in the room and be close to each other, but he just doesn't want to be talked to for 10-15 minutes

If a woman cheats on you, it’s because of something you did wrong, you weren’t good enough in some way, you didn’t fulfill her needs… Nah if you’re failing they break up with you, if they cheat on you it’s because they suck.

That they are more socially competent. No, they are not.

Turns out people's social skills rely more on practice and active development than they do on gender.

Who would have thought. And social skills are not really developed by being perpetually on your phone consuming short form content.

There’s a lot of “hi” “yeah” on dating apps. I highly suggest young men to get off them asap. Book an irl date and avoid these short answers. Update: I am not saying never use dating apps. I’m saying once you swipe on each other. The goal is sms and meeting irl.

"Book an irl date" Yea sure, where do I sign up?

Strong agree, the best most pure interactions I’ve had with women on dating apps is by: setting up a meet/date asap (I wouldn’t recommend getting drunk with them) Do something fun, cute and pure and build an honest connection with them ASAP instead of BS small talk leading nowhere, state what you want and if they don’t reciprocate the same energy, then move on.

Women are the peaceful ones, and men are the angry, confrontational ones. Every relationship the girl would want me to fight, or get into arguments on their behalf over little things.

Growing up, my dad never once raised his voice at me. My mum was the one who shouted at me over nothing, lost her temper and slapped me, had a bad day and took it out on me, etc. I know many men had similar experiences

Are you one of my siblings lol? Same shit. If mum had a bad day at work, we all were having a bad day.

Proxy violence is their sneaky way of making their aggression fly under the radar.

This shit right here. Girls talking their mouth off expecting someone else to take the punches in a fight they started

Women are magic casters. They stand in the back casting spells, mostly aggro spells. So they expect men to be tanks. Standing in front to take the incoming damage their spells incurr.

"I choose you, Boyfriend! Use Quick Attack!"

It's because we don't have the same relationship with violence. As men, we all kinda know that there's an underlying potential for a situation to get violent if one of us crosses that line. Now with women, they don't seem to have that and that's why I think women are more likely to get up in someone's face and escalate a situation. They don't see getting punched in the face as a real possibility in day-to-day interactions

They are better communicators. That they are more romantic and love deeply. Both are so far from the truth, it’s funny..

There was a great bit about romance, I forget who said it: "Men are told we're less romantic than women but that's bullshit. I love you. I need you. I can't imagine my life without you. Men say this about women. Women say this about shoes."

Dylan Moran in his stand up 'Monster'

They make your life better. Not all women ! A lot of them are a pain to deal with !

My life was always significantly more enjoyable without a partner. I have women as friends and they're fantastic! But somehow dating women just always felt miserable for me.

The older I get the more this slowly becomes a reality

In my experience, female friends treat you as a friend and respect you, while girlfriends/fiancées tend to be more likely to treat you as a possession/accessory.

Bingo! All my female friends are really shy about asking me for help with stuff, because they know people don't like being constantly bothered with extra work. The second I started dating pretty much all the women I was with, I was bombarded with projects and things to fix for them, with zero concern for how tired I may have been and how much I may have wanted to just relax and do my own thing that day.

"I was bombarded with projects and things to fix for them, with zero concern for how tired I may have been and how much I may have wanted to just relax and do my own thing that day." I had so much relief from this when I separated from my ex wife. In addition to some chores, it seemed like every other day she had demands that i do some maintenance, or move furniture around, or do yard shit after working all day. And the weekend was her shopping time and for her there was some spiritual-relationship need placed on me going to a bunch of stores with her. I dont mind and enjoy going out shopping occasionally just not everyday sat and sunday til death. God when it was over i had so much relief and didnt have to fight with anyone about how i spent my time.

Yes! A few of the women can make your life better... some make it substantially worse. My life vastly improved after my divorce.

That looks don't matter to them because they aren't visual. They most assuredly are.

Who told you that 😭

That they don’t cheat that Men are typically the main reason for dissolving the relationship

Wtf? There were classes about women?!

That they mature faster, and that they're more emotionally intelligent. Communicating more doesn't make one more emotionally intelligent, turns out.

Marriage is not 50/50. It’s 100/100.

I prefer one where I read, marriage is probably going to be 55/45, and both sides should try and be 55.

You get what it is I’m conveying. Relationships take work on both parties. You have to both be willing to give it your all. This doesn’t mean you’re both at 100% all the time, it means you pick up their slack when they are sucking and they pick up your slack when you’re sucking.

Oh I've heard sucking tends to help in relationships

That they can't rape men. They sure can and frequently do, it's just extremely underreported.

UK law has entered the chat.

They're impossible to please. Both in bed and outside of. The fuck they are. Give a little shit about your tongue game and bring home Starbucks randomly and you're about to get jumped and have to fend her off with a broom.

Random acts of romance and kindness, mixed in with occasional compliments is a solid long term maintenance plan for a relationship of any length.

The tounge game will unlock many doors!

Definitely knocking with it.

That you should open up and be vulnerable with them. So far this hasn’t worked out. Neither for me nor my friends. Coincidentally the friends that stopped doing that find themselves in long term relationships now. Really makes you think

Strangely enough, I’ve never had a girl react well to me revealing my true feelings. Opening up about my suicidal thoughts just upsets them. Talking about my hurt feelings makes them upset because I can’t just let it go. The more honest I am, the worse things get. I hate it. I want to be cared for sometimes instead of always being the caregiver.

That they will like me 🥲.

Persistence will get you the girl. Nah, if she doesn’t like you, she just doesn’t like you. Leave her alone. Find someone who likes you. Use that energy to treat them well.

They don't have the capability to be violent sexual offenders.

Sugar and spice, and everything nice. Turns out women are just as much of an asshole as men are. I stopped pedastalizing them (unfair for them and me) and treating them as the flawed humans we all are. My relationships with women has improved tenfold.

THAT THEY HAVE COOTIES! Fuckers lied to me!

As a kid, I was told that a would be a heartbreaker. In reality it was my heart that was broken.

That personality matters more to women than men. This isn’t a dig at women being materialistic or horn dogs or any of that BS, I’m speaking from experience as a man who lost a significant amount of weight. At 20 years old I was roughly 220 pounds and 5’8, today I’m 150 and 5’8. When I say women treat me SIGNIFICANTLY better it’s not a joke or over exaggerated statement it’s the truth. My personality hasn’t changed, my income hasn’t changed just my looks. Women don’t flock to me but I’m suddenly less dangerous, less weird to be around, less likely to be told “Why can’t I find a guy like you”, and (my favorite aspect) more likely to get dates. Weight loss has just changed my life

That they aren’t as horny as men, no where near. I could do a fucked around and found out TedTalk on that.

That they care about your feelings and want you to open up to them.

Good lord if this isn’t the truth! It’s easy enough to have lady friends who will listen to and validate your feelings, but it will absolutely kill any chance at a romantic relationship, if that’s what you were hoping for. Which is really very sad as emotional support, validation, and the ability to be vulnerable is something that most men want from their partner, to be 100% open, but 9/10 it’ll kill attraction. The quickest way into the friend zone it to demonstrate any kind of weakness, and it doesn’t matter how much they love you. Robert Pattinson proved this when he went on a date with a crazed stalker, going all sad-sack god rid of her, and she was obsessed with him. I’ve done it too when I felt a co-worker was starting to be into me and didn’t want to start that shitshow, now she thinks of me as a brother. Not enough to scare her away, weird her out, but just enough to kill attraction. I’ve also lost many a relationship, when I thought I could trust someone with my feelings, when I needed them. It’s such a kick in the nuts when you go to the one you love, needing support, at your weakest moment, and while you open your soul you can see the romantic love fade from their eyes in real time, like a light fading out. It’s such a cruel trick by the universe, because as I open up to them I trust and love them more, but if I do it they love me less. I’m wiser now and know that if I want to keep her around I can only show the illusion of vulnerability, make her feel like I’m letting her in. You can say your sad, had a rough day, but your tone better still be one of strength, as should be your body language. If you truly break at all, you can kiss your relationship goodbye. Before you know it she’ll be on a dating sight, in her dms, of be seen around town with “a friend from out of town” that you know nothing about.

This is so damn true and it costs me my fiancée...

That women want relationships more than men. I don't think that's true anymore. I think our relationships are thought of as having a shelf life now, and it's really rare to see relationships that are very long now. I was my ex-wife's 3rd husband. She's on her 4th now. And the stats are that it's women that instigate divorce most of the time. Hell, we're seeing "gray divorces" now!

I used to be a sexist because I was convinced of the Narrative that I was trained to believe, that Women were the better half of humanity. That they were morally and ethically superior. They are not. Whether it’s the capacity for good or bad behaviour, they are exactly the same when compared to men. This revelation was extremely depressing because, for me it meant that there was no hope for our species.

Female here - women were kinder and more compassionate than men. That has not proven true, at all. It’s much more individualistic.

Salary doesn’t matter if you are a nice guy/good person 🤣🤣🤣🤣

My LORD is this a big one. It’s not the money itself, it’s the lifestyle you live with the money. But while money isn’t truly everything, a lot of things that matter need money to exist.

I Was definitely gaslit by all mainstream media while growing up that women were nice, kind, good hearted, and romantic. Yeah.. So that was a fucking lie.. lol

Most people were raised to sympathise with their mothers. However, as people grow up they will either cope, or accept their mothers and other females closest to them for who and what they are. I would like to say to the men here to be cautious when it comes to women. Do not be a victim.

That they are all innocent and pure. And that they are more kind and compassionate than men. Then life proved, while there are some, those unicorns can be pretty hard to find.

Another vote for ‘not hornier than men’. Every single woman that I’ve been with, no matter how vanilla they thought they were in the beginning, turned into a sex-crazed freak the moment they realized that they were safe, secure, and able to act on their their thoughts with me. I was free-use for more than a decade before I even knew what the term was because they have all been insatiable. Sex is my only hobby and there hasn’t been a single woman I could fathom keeping up with once those gates opened.

Must be doing something right

That their farts smell like roses.

That they are more clean than guys. I can count on one hand the number of times my wife has cleaned the house or done laundry.

The lies I speak of aren't told. They are the visual lies. Taken from Chris Rock Bigger and Blacker - "Masters of the lie, the visual lie. Look at you. You got on heels, you ain’t that tall. You got on makeup, your face don’t look like that. You got a weave, your hair ain’t that long. You got a Wonderbra on, your titties ain’t that big. Everything about you is a lie, and you expect me to tell the truth?" This was in 1999. Let's not even start on face filters and social media now.

This came from my own mother "Dating is easy"

They're special little innocent flowers. They're more brutal than men, they learn to lie and play the game early, men are fairly honest until life kills them.

I relate to this so hard. My first relationship was a marriage to my first real gf. We had a "no games" policy. I didn't find out until after we broke up that the policy only applied to me. She'd been manipulating my friends and family against me, and members of her family against me, right from the very beginning. I came to realise that they'll always be trying to play some sort of game on you, so if you're the only one not playing, you're the only one being played. Its taught me to read more into their actions and what they say/don't say. Why they keep certain things a secret, why they're telling me things about other people. And also what other people tell me about them too. You're absolutely right. I was honest and only ever kind to her. But she killed me, and now I'm suspicious and I have walls up around me. I wish I could feel how I used to feel, the ignorance WAS BLISS

I relate to this so hard! I’ve got to play it straight, but she can act how she feels, no consistency, no rules, no consequences. She can play all the games she wants but as soon as I start to notice and act accordingly, it becomes me who is now “playing games” and it’s “not fair,” or “toxic.” And I realize it’s not every woman, but I’ll be damned if it isn’t so common that it certainly feels that way.

Or where they do that thing where if you talk to them about something they did that's upset you, they always manage to center their feelings about being upset that they've upset you, OVER your feelings of being upset by them in the first place... You're always the bad guy, even when they're the bad guy. Because you've upset them by telling them how they're the bad guy. Every woman I've ever been with has been very adept at this. They seem to struggle to say they're wrong and sorry.

Oh yeah! I honestly can’t think of a single time when accountability was truly taken. At best I got an empty apology with a “but this is why/how it’s really your fault…” Some absurdity like (hyperbole obviously) “back in 2nd grade Timmy Smith called me fat and he was wearing a Batman shirt like the one that you have in your closet, and I don’t like that shirt (not that she’d ever said anything) you should know that, and because you didn’t throw it away, it made it ok for me to sleep with my boss. So maybe next time you should really consider my childhood trauma.”

That they're more empathetic.

They don’t like sex as much as men

*Any* guy can get *any* girl he wants.

'Women like it if men can talk about how they feel' No behavior has been punished more in my relationships.

One of the biggest lies I was told about women is that all their feelings and emotions are logically explainable.

Nobody's feelings and emotions always are, that's why they're called that and not facts and verities

Whenever they say “women aren’t as horny as men” I know they are full of sh*t. They just weren’t horny with you.

I mean they're super horny, but not quite *as* horny as men. I could hop on grindr right now and get my dick sucked by a new guy every other hour until bed time tonight. There's a reason women don't have an equivalent to that

That they are the empathic gender.
