If women inherently needed men, why have we had to be subjugated into relationships with them for millennia? Why do we make sure that the second a girl can talk, it has to be bashed into her head that what’s most important is her appeal to men? Why do men feel an insatiable need to invade women-only spaces? Why does a woman putting her own interests first threaten people so much?

Because women don’t really need men like men need women. Men know this, and deep down, know they ain’t shit and will never get what they want without some form of manipulation.

I don’t care how attractive they are, how many girls they’ve gotten with, men know they ain’t shit. That’s why they “play it cool” and pretend they’re better than you.

Ever been on OLD and a guy told you “hey I’d love to meet in person but you live too far, big sad 😔”? If he really couldn’t, he could’ve narrowed down his radius. They’re trying to see if you’ll be like “oh it’s ok I can come over!!” They do this on purpose. He wants to feel like he’s being chased, then he’ll brag to his friends about how you traveled X amount of miles to see him.

Their security depends on you reassuring them somehow that they’re desirable, powerful, and the manliest man to ever man. So try not to take it as a personal affront if they start bread-crumbing you or not putting in the effort. They do this because they perceive you to have more “power”. Because you’re a woman.

HVM, men who have healthy boundaries and are secure with themselves, will show you consistent interest from the get-go. They’ll never leave you questioning anything. They don’t play these stupid games with you.
