What traditional roles or habits from the opposite gender (or any) do you just fully accept without trying to rationalize anymore, you just take them as your truth?

Men are much hornier and have a higher drive for sex. It affects how I treat men around me, starting with prioritizing intimacy with my husband over some mundane things and ending with all kinds of precautions around men I don't know well.
Most men don't have eyes only for their partners. They will look at other women and find them pretty, and most of them will watch porn. Male sexual desire and attraction are not discriminate enough, so it can feel very...un-special.
Men generally prefer younger women at least visually. There's nothing to do about it, so you shouldn't tie your value to your appearance that will fade sooner or later, and you should choose a partner who loves and values you beyond your looks.

*Most Adult women are generally too set in their ways to relearn how to engage with men in a way that's healthier both for themselves and for men. Generally they don't care to change as objectifying men makes their lives easier, some others genuinely seem to not know how to change, and I have to keep living in the doomed world that's been created by a generation of conditioning young girls and women to see men as a combination sex toy/status symbol/vicious animal/ATM/and emotional support. There are genuine relationships/friendships out there. But I don't think I would ever assume a woman sees me as a person by default.

* The need to accessorize, add color, stuffed animals, art, decorations, candles, incense, burning oils. Honestly, I like that about them. Women are sure to make a living space a lot more vibrant if they have the time to start making changes. It's a beautiful habit. I just don't like it when it gets too expensive. But on the cheap? No complaints.

*They're more afraid. And they're not very driven to do anything practical with the fear. They just sit with it until it drives them mad. It doesn't make them pick up a weapon, they don't want to take the fight to what they're afraid of, they just want it to go away so they can forget the feelings. I've had to learn to that women don't really see threats as a kind of pressure to push their own decisions along, it's more like a force that makes them unwilling to make any decision. They freeze. And it's kind of a struggle not to judge that as that approach is likely to make your problems worse, but it's not something anyone can get over in a moment. It takes work and years, and again most don't care to change.

*Social Tunnel Vision. Women really stay in their lane and they don't look at how other people are doing unless they want what they have or they're afraid they're going to be dragged down. And there's lots of mundane things in life where those dynamics just don't work like that. Some things are just good to know so you can be helpful to others, they don't cost or gain you anything. They're a lot more comfortable being uncurious. You can find women in their 40s with sons who have gone through potty training, and they still don't know how a penis works. Women old enough to be widows who have just as much insight into men as they did when they were 20. All because they didn't have to learn and didn't feel any drive to. It's very cynical, and I see it play out in all kinds of little ways all the time. So many don't want to learn from or for other people. Maybe it's just a man thing to want to be helpful or useful.

Using your example, I just had a young woman kind of explain things

“I mean we are taught by school dances, movies/ real life etc since middle school that if a boy is into you, he’ll approach. So if a guy isn’t approaching, then how are we even supposed to know he likes us? I mean it! Like what are you doing to show you like me, so I know I should ignore all the guys approaching to approach you? Like what signals are you giving me?”

And she was being genuine. So- what are the signals a guy that wants women to approach them doing?

What traditional roles or habits from the opposite gender (or any) do you just fully accept without trying to rationalize anymore

Women naturally possess higher long-term stress tolerance, better short-term memory, better sensation of taste and smell, better body balance, better muscle & joint flexibility, slower metabolism and consequently lower consumption of nutrients, proteins, micro-elements, and vitamins with exception of calcium; these things naturally dictate their gravitation towards certain life choices, and certain life outcomes.

If I say anything else that I fully accept about the opposite gender without trying to rationalize, I'll get perma-banned on reddit.

KhadgarIsaDreadlord · 2025-08-13T14:42:41+00:00

When women communicate their expectations, they are already pissed at you for not accomodating those expectations. You are expected to figure out what they want you to do without them telling you oitright. This is managable once you get used to it and start feeling the vibes of disapproval.
Female sexuality works differently than male sexuality (less frequent desire, needs buildup) which ends up causing rifts in a lot of relationships. It's a snowballing effect really, man doesn't recieve the sexual validation he expects and gets distant, due to growing distant and less affectionate, the woman pulls back even more and on it goes until resentment is built up, leading to bigger issues. The way this needs to be tackled is actually communicating desires to the other person and trying to meet them at the middle as much as possible.

TopShelfSnipes · 2025-08-13T17:59:10+00:00

That most women who don't know you from a stranger will treat you with their guard up. And honestly, seeing the way some guys thirst around them, I get it.

Nobody gets the benefit of the doubt, unless you're introduced through a friend, and that benefit of the doubt can and will go away with any sign of creepy behavior.

This is even true for guys who claim to want to be friends, because many guys looking to hook up or get a relationship claim they want to be friends.

The best defense mechanism as a non-creep, non-predator is just to be social and friendly (cuz you are already, right? right?) until they let their guard down, without focusing on them specifically, and not apply any pressure. Once they start being less wary of you, more organic interactions can take place.

Women are going to ask you to be "emotionally available" or "vulnerable", but the moment you start talking about your real feelings, you will be accused of "trauma-dumping" or even worse, be called pathetic. Everything you say will also be used against you every time there's an argument.

I have just accepted that this is a no-win situation.

Rich-Efficiency3394 · 2025-08-13T09:53:27+00:00

Women are only loyal to their emotions.
Women don't have to accept accountability because there's always some simp happy to remove it from them.
Arguing with women is a waste of time.
Women cannot respect you if they cannot admire you.
Women would rather have a piece of a winner than all of a loser.
You can't bargain, negotiate, coerce, or demand attraction. You either become what women want or lose to the men that do.

CerealExprmntz · 2025-08-13T08:06:00+00:00

None. And I disagree with your reasoning too.

MC-Purp · 2025-08-13T19:28:45+00:00

Women taking their personal safety into account. I don’t question it, and I understand the consequences can be so severe that it’s not worth the risk for them.

Generalizations.

Men are hornier than women

Men are very sex driven

A Man is attracted to a lot more women(amount) than a woman is attracted to men

Men like to be told what to do, like to feel useful

Men have a lower sense of clean

petellapain · 2025-08-13T21:44:44+00:00

Women want tall men. It's not a choice. They can't force themselves to like short men. They may or may not be honest about it according to the situation. Short and average height men should accept this and not put themselves in a position to be a nuisance to women

Werevulvi · 2025-08-14T08:12:20+00:00

That men have a different relationship to sex, different feelings about it. Like they're much more likely to enjoy sex for the sex itself, and that's why so many of them want and enjoy casual sex. I still wouldn't wanna date a man who prioritizes casual sex, but like when in a relationship, I get it's best not to overcomplicate the sexual aspect, and not take it as necessarily negative if he's not into cuddling after sex, or that he focuses on the physical, or there's some kinda separation between sex and love for him.

Because I get that I just don't relate to sex the same way as a woman, but like that's okay. I don't think that means men and women can't get along romantically or sexually. But I also don't think that's an excuse to cheat. He can look, fantasize, watch porn in his own privacy, etc, but actually getting physical with other women is where I draw the line. Actions are different from thoughts and feelings. Like I get you can't control what or who gives you a boner, but you can control where you put it.

But also I don't really have any problem with men who just wanna sleep around and are honest about that. I wouldn't wanna date them (because we're incompatible) but I could still respect them as friends or as people in general. Because I get that men and women have different sexualities and that's okay, as long as we can both be civil and respectful about it.

For me it’s: 1. Men are more sexual than women so they’re very likely to be attracted to people other than just their SOs or wives 2. Having a lot of single moms in the world doesn’t just mean women are picking wrong. ALL those men just ditched their kid lol - a decent size of the male population too. Really makes you wonder where the baseline of morality for men is. 3. They’re very likely to leave you when you’re sick or let yourself go (there’s a study for this somewhere). But what’s the purpose of marriage, be there through sickness and health, where there’s hard data that shows that men will only stick with you when you’re at your best lol. 4. Society minimizes women’s contributions like household chores and childcare. And just like women are trying to make fat acceptance happen - it won’t. Same with trying to get recognition for these domestic things so best to just sit this out imo

Emergency-Sell-6713 · 2025-08-13T14:30:46+00:00

Men have a selfish way of looking at the world. They look at the way something is useful to them, and they assign it that definition as an inherent value. For example, a woman is useful for sex, so men define a woman as a sex doll, even if in reality it's a human being who also happens to have a vagina.
