I had sisters and groups of female friends until college. I became very paranoid s out my looks because unlike guy friends the girls would shun other women for things like obesity, a large nose or funny teeth, wearing socks with the wrong shoes, and wearing the wrong fashion. They were superficial and cruel in their friendships.

They then begin to project all the things they think on to males while criticizing every man for his teeth, height, his car, hair, and body.

Men don't generally do this when deciding on friendships or employment. I've had male friends hang with disabled pals, ugly pals, ignorant dudes, chubby dudes you name it. They usually have each others back and build them up.

Growing up with girls was terrible for my perception of men. I thought the whole world thought as females do. They were very divisive and a lot of the drama in the world today is caused by superficial thinking projected on to some phantom idea of "man" when it's just women's insecurities.
