Grossed out by vulvas or just female bodies in general, but refuses to entertain the possibility that he might be gay so he just continues to have sex with women he's not even attracted to because he's a man and according to society they neeeeeeed to have sex with women in order to be a "real man".

Hey, I'm sorry this guy is harassing you but this is just giving the guy the attention that he wants. Just block him, please, stop responding to him and making posts about him everywhere, it isn't helping

Guys proudly admit that they fake entire relationships and will lie about anything to get them due to their entitlement to a woman's love and support. This is why we have to vet. Weed out the fakes.

I hope all the libfem pickmes know that this is what their fwbs and hookups think about them. Women may treat their friends like this cooking for them, giving them gifts, checking in on their mental health, y'know actually caring about them. Many men do not do these things for their friends. What many women do for their friends, men would only do for someone they genuinely cared about, that's why so many of them might get the wrong idea when women do nice things for male friends.

It's a fairly new study, so it would likely reveal a lot more women do this as self-harm as more research is done on it. I also see there being some pushback from libfems if research on SASI gains more traction, since they've been the ones pushing "sex positivity" and BDSM as a healthy way to deal with trauma.

Then they wonder why so many women regret having sex when they do shit like this 🙄 Many men shame the woman that they just had sex with, doesn't matter if the sex was ok or not. It would make anyone feel bad about themselves if the guy they just had sex with seemed chill and nice, then turned out to be an asshole afterwards.

I wonder if women getting into making these sex bots will help us?

As nice as this sounds, it'll probably be a huge target to men :( Hearing about an island of exclusively women thriving, happy, and finally being free to exist without men's eyes constantly on you no matter where you go will sound enticing to them, like forbidden fruit. That's the only thing I'm afraid of tbh, I'm not worried we won't be able to live without men. It's men's entitlement to us that will prevent us from living in peace, unless we can somehow keep this place a secret that only women…

I'm not sure if this is still a thing(probably is) but I remember seeing videos of guys doing something sweet for their partner's birthday/wedding proposal/whatever important occasion and the comments were just filled with men complaining about the guy "raising the bar" for them. I reckon if you find anything about a guy just being very kind to his gf and treating her like a normal human being, there's always some scrote who gets worried and insecure about all the comments from women saying "aww…

Like a slot machine, they get a win ONCE and they go "It works!" and then keep pulling the lever over and over not caring about the fact that they only get a payout once every dozens or so turns. So it's also things like this that keep them coming back, just because they were able to successfully manipulate a handful of women despite the bigger amount of failed attempts, they're convinced it works on every woman.

A lot of us are used to being told we're pretty(mostly by other women) and a lot of women still have low self-esteem lol. Hearing men say that we'll get a big head by genuinely kind compliments is so weird to me, almost as if they're projecting. An attractive woman gives the unattractive guy a chance, and suddenly his ego skyrockets and he's already checked out of the relationship looking for a more attractive replacement thinking he can do better than her.

The guy still tried to shoot his shot even after she said she had a boyfriend, so even that doesn't work sometimes :/ Scrote in the comments saying he "didn't ask the right questions" lol. So the problem wasn't that he didn't take the rejection, but that he wasn't persisting in the right way? Yet another guy empathizing with a guy he doesn't even know who's harassing a woman and claiming he's just socially awkward.

She rejected him multiple times, flat out said "No" and "I'm alright, thanks". His response to her rejections was "Are you sure?" We've all been in this situation before. When polite rejections don't work, being a little less polite about it will make a guy like this angry when he just brushes it off and continues talking at you.

It just... Doesn't make any sense to blame her. If he was completely innocent, he would've reported the murder instead taking her belongings and hiding, not to mention there were complete strangers who noticed his behavior towards her as well as observations from the people who knew him more personally. He knew he was fucked.

Yeah, it's sad men have to be inspired by women to be better people to impress us and not just genuinely want to be better because they care about others, but this is the way things are it seems :( Confronting and holding men accountable for their owns actions is too scary and people don't trust them to make the right decisions, so we put the responsibility on women because people know they're easier targets.

Just wanted to point out that promiscuous women who claim to have a high libido might be hypersexual due to childhood sexual trauma Women with higher testosterone levels also have a high sex drive, but this doesn't automatically mean they have casual sex, just that they probably need lots of orgasms to feel satisfied lol

Yeah it's not bad to be emotional, what matters is how you handle those emotions. Most women would rather deal with their emotions now than later and talk to friends/family/therapists about it. Men tend to compartmentalize their emotions and either dump it all on one person to deal with(usually their partners) or just never deal with it at all, or at least not in a healthy way.

Same vein as hoping other men will remain depraved so the standards are low, and they can be the heroes. THIS is why "good men" or men who do the bare minimum continue to keep asshole friends around, because it makes them look like better people by comparison.

It's not hard to explain, it's just hard to get men to actually care. After all, if they cared about how their own behavior affects us, this wouldn't be such a huge problem in the first place. The stuff we have to deal with is all out in the open, anyone can see it. It's not some big secret.

I grew up around conservative people and have conservative childhood friends who I still keep in touch with. The way they think is "this is just the way things are" or "it's just simpler this way". I don't blame women for finding it exhausting to reject basically being treated like the man's property when they see what the women going against it have to deal with.

FDS encourages being upfront about what you want, and if a guy doesn't meet your standards then don't date him. How is that manipulative compared to stringing someone along, playing mind games, constantly putting them down, purposely targeting those with issues to make them dependent on you, yet still keeping them around for entertainment despite doing horrible shit to them?

I've grown up with friends who have really low self-esteem and they've always struggled to accept gifts or compliments or other people's time because they think they don't deserve to be loved :( I also think some women may have had bad experiences with guys who treated them like they were indebted to them for giving them something and feel very uncomfortable with receiving nice things because of that

‘You’ll never have a relationship if your first response is to leave.’ This seems like just settling for any kind of relationship just to be in one, like she's already invested a lot into the guy and thinks it'll be pointless to leave all of that behind despite her effort. One of the reasons why a lot of women are reluctant to leave a guy is because they don't want to start all over since they've been with him for a long time.

His breadwinning wife is also probably still cleaning up after him, cooking for him, and being the primary caretaker of their child while he just sits back and plays video games all day.

Misandry can be treated as much of a danger when there is a back-to-back string of murderers/mass shooters who specifically target men because nobody want to have sex with them.

There’s a chance, then, that in the cases where this form of debating isn’t purely being used to be passive-aggressive, or to intentionally patronise and provoke, it could just be men genuinely wanting to learn more about a topic they have little knowledge of.

I'm a lot younger than you, but I wouldn't be concerned about a guy who didn't want to date me because of my age. Keep in mind, a man may claim to want someone younger because they want kids(even if he doesn't want any) but dating someone younger and less accomplished makes them feel more in control. They feel like they need this for their ego, or they'll feel even more inferior to other men. It's better that he rejected you than try to string you along and keep you around while he seeks out wom…

There's already enough porn for men on the internet, but that's not enough for them apparently. They want to edit in people who are not associated with porn in any way so they can fantasize raping/humiliating someone while claiming that's technically not hurting the real person, even though it could ruin her life if others believe that it's real. People are too afraid to say it, but I think most men like non-consensual/coercive sex. They feel powerful knowing a woman is doing something she doesn…

Many women just give up and are too exhausted from putting everyone else's needs before their own to put up a fight about the shitty things their husbands do.

Basically men who rape or who want to do so, will admit to forcing or wanting to force somebody to have nonconsensual sex, but will not admit to it when specifically using the word "rape". To them, that word is more associated with bad people than "force" and so they do not view themselves as bad people for forcing someone rather than raping someone.

It's really eye opening to know their treatment of women really has little to do with us, even with many cultures seeing being born female as a punishment due to religion (Eve being tricked by the snake). They needed an easy excuse to bond with each other because at the same time, they're afraid of other men but also seek to climb the social hierarchy between them. It's always been about impressing other men and using women as some sort of bridge to do so.
