Notallwomen are gold-diggers but some are. Be cautious of all women brothers

Scarbane · 2016-05-06T02:02:36+00:00

Every girl has refused a drink from someone she doesn't know.

It's sooo hard being a member of the gender that gets free drinks.

Azothlike · 2016-05-06T07:21:44+00:00

" 1.) You don't get to speak for all women. As much as you want to pretend you do.

2.) Women, on average, work significantly less hours than men, take significantly more sick days, and retire significantly sooner. I guess it's totally acceptable for people to refuse to hire you for any serious job, because enough women slack off for you to be a liability. Prejudice against protected classes is fantastic, isn't it, you bigot. "

alongstrangetrip · 2016-05-06T02:31:09+00:00

Not all men but EVERY and ALL women. This is ridiculous.

Canttakethewhyfromme · 2016-05-06T01:58:56+00:00

So, they are agreeing with us. Not all guys. There are a handful of women stalkers, maybe you should make a counter FB post

NibblyPig · 2016-05-06T13:18:19+00:00

"Not all women!"

- Yes but enough women that every man is terrified of smiling to that girl on the bus or talking with a girl in the coffee shop. Every man has been walking late at night at one point and been made to feel shit that he's terrifying a girl that is walking nearby by just being a man.

Not all women.

But enough women that all men are now afraid of most women.

It's gotten so bad that we have to be afraid of even accidentally making eye contact. We can't ask that you please stop making assumptions. Because if we do we run the risk of being labeled a "creep" and blamed for assaults and rapes that did not and would not happen.

So we speak to you with the body language that we hope you'll find non-threatening. We do not make eye contact, we do not talk to you, or engage in conversation with you, we look out of the window and look as non-threatening as possible that are giant signs that subtly read "SORRY I AM A MAN!" But you insist on ignoring those signs because you have it in your head that our body language is threatening and that we are poised to strike at a moments notice. That our bodies are always ready to assault you.

Not all women.

You can start fucking saying that when all men can stop being afraid. But that's not gonna happen if every woman a man opens up to about anything reacts with horror and assumes they have criminal intentions by saying "Yes all men".

dryfire · 2016-05-06T05:17:14+00:00

I'm a pretty big guy, and every time I walk alone at night I'm paranoid about who might be following me. I don't think it's a female thing, it's just a human thing. I'm curious what scenario the author has in mind where they think that will go away...

Denikke · 2016-05-06T02:42:11+00:00

OMFG XP As a woman. . .I fricken HATE this.

I have said it before. I will continue saying it. I have never been afraid of a man because he was a man. I have had situations where a man has acted aggressively towards me, and yes, been worried about the situation escalating. And I have had females act aggressively and been just as worried about the situation escalating.

I have never walked down a street at night in fear that a man would attack me.

I have never walked through a dark parking lot, in fear that I would be attacked by a man.

I have never resented a man making comments (from "hey, how's it going" to "what's up beautiful" to whatever kind of catcalling as long as it's not lewd or overly aggressive-which, honestly, has happened a grand total of maybe once)

MEN HAVE NEVER MADE ME FEEL UNCOMFORTABLE, let alone THREATENED by their mere presence!! I have never, in almost 27 years, been in a situation where purely changing the sex of the person/people involved, from male to female, would have made me feel in any way different about the whole thing.

Honestly. . . .I really have to wonder what it feels like to make yourself a victim in all things. To walk around with that kind of fear, all the friggen time. To feel like the world is out to get you. To be that self absorbed. . . .

coke501 · 2016-05-06T09:06:54+00:00

How come that everytime someone has an unreasonable fear of something we call it a phobia, but if women are unreasonable afraid of men we don't tell them to seek help?

Rockbottom503 · 2016-05-06T12:05:39+00:00

This is a big part of the reason I remain so at odds with feminism! The only people telling women they need to be afraid of men are feminists - all the stats indicate men should be afraid, not women. Yet they continue to perpetuate this myth, blaming men for making feel less safe when the actual reason they feel less safe is because they buy into all this bullshit propaganda!

mikazee · 2016-05-06T05:25:41+00:00

Just put the word "black" or "jewis" in front of the word men.

Swiggy · 2016-05-06T14:17:19+00:00

Need to send this to may Muslim friends who are concerned about being treated like terrorists. Let them know people's irrational fears about all Muslims being terrorists is really their fault.

thedoze · 2016-05-06T06:32:49+00:00

Not all women are that retarded.

Visimicus · 2016-05-06T08:01:02+00:00

i'm afraid of people. all people should be afraid of people. it's called being safe. jesus.

GreatBaldung · 2016-05-06T12:09:51+00:00

Whoa, I can't imagine ever living under constant fear, being troubled by such an intense persecution mania... that sort of shit can drive someone quite mad.

Calybos · 2016-05-06T12:51:13+00:00

There's a lot of angry (but ineffective) reactions to the "Not All Men" message... which, to me, suggests that it's hitting home. It calls them out on their bigotry, and they can't come up with a suitable comeback.

Conclusion: Keep using it.

Zuldoon · 2016-05-06T13:11:44+00:00

Doesn't everyone feel scared walking down dark alleys at night. Its not a woman only thing

franklindeer · 2016-05-06T15:10:20+00:00

"its gotten so bad"

As if things have gotten worse somehow rathet than improved considerably for the last 100 years. That illustrates how out of touch the whole argument is.

ddrluna · 2016-05-06T17:10:58+00:00

You know, I have had a guy follow me in his car. He pulled up to the curb to try to motion me over. Twice. Then I turned around and tried to walk back home, as the bag of chips I wanted from the convenience store wasn't worth this bullshit. The guy actually turned his car around and followed me into my cul de sac, and when I hid behind a car in the hopes he wouldn't see me, he circled around again. It was one of the scariest things I've ever had happen.

But you know what? I didn't generalize my experiences with that guy to all men. Because I'm not an idiot. Nor did I generalize his race (he was black) to all people of that race. Because I'm not an idiot. It was one man. One asshole. His "creepy" behaviour doesn't leak into everyone else.

This woman has managed to cripple herself socially because of a few bad experiences. She is now ruled by fear. And she has the audacity to assume that all other women share her pathological mindset.

This woman doesn't speak for me. I suspect she doesn't speak for a lot of women. She does, however, speak for enough morons who feel the need to spread this nonsense around, which makes all women look like frightened victims who can't put 1 and 1 together to realize that one jug of milk gone sour does not mean that all milk for the rest of forever will taste that way.

It really pisses me off.

ch1584 · 2016-05-06T18:05:57+00:00

Not all muslims are terrorists

Not all females are liars and cheaters after your assets

But enough are that we should discriminate against them.

Hm. Funny how that argument is suddenly valid when you are sexist against men

Betterwives · 2016-05-06T07:15:04+00:00

Wine who choose taller formidable partners tend to see danger where none actually exists. (recent lester UK study). Once women stop being paranoid for some unknown reason, men will say 'not all men'.

iBelieveButton · 2016-05-06T12:47:42+00:00

Here OP, go blow up facebook:

"Not all blacks!"

-Yes but enough blacks that every while person is terrified of smiliing to that black guy on the bus or talking with the black guy in the coffee ship. Every white person has been walking late at night at one point and been afraid of who might be following them. Every white person has referred to someone as a nigger and every white person has refused a drink from someone they don't know.

Not all blacks.

But enough blacks that all white people are now afraid of most black people. It's gotten so bad that we have to be afraid of even telling you we are afraid. We can't ask that you please stop talking to us. Because if we do we run the risk of being labeled as a "stuck up racist" and blamed for murders and rapes in which we are the victimes.

So we speak to you with body language that we hope you'll understand. We cross our legs and look out the window and wear giant headphones that are giant signs that subtly read "DON'T TALK TO ME!" But you insist on ignoring those signs because you ahve it in your head that our body language doesn't mean anything. That our bodies aren't our bodies.

Not all blacks.

You can start fucking saying that when ALL white people can stop being afraid. But that's not gonna happen if every black person a white person opens up to about this issue dismisses them by saying "not all blacks."

NibblyPig · 2016-05-06T13:09:23+00:00

What's gotten so bad? Like, specifically?

EatShihtzu · 2016-05-06T13:30:56+00:00

It's as if people don't understand that a platform like Facebook is a window into the minds of their idiotic friends. I stopped using that bullshit in 2008 and can't say I miss it.

GADBabaganoosh · 2016-05-06T16:09:30+00:00

Man, to be so fearful. What a bunch of pussies

soalone34 · 2016-05-06T17:13:13+00:00

Replace man with black and woman with white.

PurpleViolettron · 2016-05-06T17:57:45+00:00

every girl is terrified

I'm an American chick who has been living for the last three months in a country where I don't speak the language. Men, mostly quite a bit older, regularly smile at me and I smile back because, the way I was raised, that's common courtesy. It's not fucking harmful.

every girl has refused a drink

Nope. I've only had a guy buying me drinks once. I drank them, then realized he'd been buying me way too much and went home with my friends because I couldn't think straight. I did refuse to leave with him because I was too drunk.

We can't ask that you please stop talking to us.

Yes, you can. A "Leave me the fuck alone," works rather well if they're persistent. If he's actually pursuing you and you can't like duck into a nearby business or something, you call the fucking cops. Or you threaten to kick him in the balls. Don't actually do it unless he assaults you first, but threatening it usually makes a man go away.

intensely_human · 2016-05-06T22:17:20+00:00

So women are increasingly afraid of men? I wonder who made that happen?

TheDude41 · 2016-05-07T06:24:24+00:00

Some women are always afraid.

It's what they do, because it allows them to ask for and often get stuff. Probably a result of poor upbringing.

It's not my lot in life to be an emotional babysitter for females. I have more important things to do.

An by the way, by every aspect, men are far more likely than are women to be the victims of violent crime. We just choose not to let that possibility ruin our lives, and everyone else's.

Damseling, chivalry are total shit.

When you live a life steeped in privilege (like all feminists do), equality seems like oppression.

Artisanpasta · 2016-05-06T18:42:27+00:00

tfw only argument to "not all men" is "ugh not this again"

redditorriot · 2016-05-08T15:07:42+00:00

A word swap to blacks/whites shines a light on this particular nugget.

ThePointyBird · 2016-05-06T02:48:45+00:00

Seems pretty fucking reasonable to me. Obviously it's an exaggeration to say "every girl", but apart from that, what could any man object to??
