Who thinks men can't cook? Many of the most famous and respected chefs in the world are men...

All we do is talk about boobs/ sex.

Today we talked about WWI and the Zimmerman telegram.

Men don't like dancing or singing.

Somehow we have the stereotype that men like traditional gender roles, yet I know a lot more women than men who think that the man should initiate the relationship or that the man should earn more than the woman.

Men aren't compassionate and lack empathy for the less fortunate.

Men don't like commitment or being fathers.

The assumption that men should always be ready to lift things, open things, and help with manual labor.

The assumption of being the emotional stable ones to support their gfs/wives, but called a baby if a man becomes emotional in frustration, anger, or from physical pain.

That if a man isn’t interested in sex he must be gay or something is wrong, if a woman isn’t she’s just not in the mood.

That men are bad listeners, when really we just express we are listening in different ways than women do.

That men dress poorly, or generally have poor hygiene.

That men are expected to be able to protect women, but are also demonized for being aggressive.

Women believe men are over-praised for their accomplishments, but ignore that men are also harshly-punished for their mistakes.

That men don’t care about being a good father yet the courts/women actively fight against equal custody when a man wants to be involved.

That men who cheat just for sex are pigs, but when women cheat for love, it’s justified/understandable. The latter is far more evil that the former, but the excuse is a given.

That men must provide financially for women, but women also should get half in divorce, and women should also be paid equal to men.

That men don’t feel pain when you hurt them, so it’s okay, but men also can’t return a hit otherwise they are a women hitter, so they have to take it and do their best to not react, thus repeating the cycle.

That men are superficial and only care about looks, but women care deeply about a man’s financial success.

That men are told they should express their feelings more, but when men express frustration, anger, or hurt they are called babies by women.

That men can’t body shame women for their weight, boobs, butt, but women can body shame men for their height & dick size.

That men who don’t have sex are pathetic losers and women who don’t have sex are being chaste or pure.

That men need to share their thoughts and feelings more, but women are indirect about expressing their needs expecting men to implicitly understand what they really mean, or must insist on prying if they really care. Then when men pry too often, men are ignoring their feelings.

That when a woman invaded privacy, like looking through their phone, it’s cute, but if a man does that it’s controlling.

A woman showing her naked body is freeing and celebratory, a man showing his naked body is perverted.

Women struggling in math is a society bias against women, men struggling in communication is men are inferior to women.

Men who like to work with children are pedos, women who like work with children are nurturing and caring.

Women who have mental problems need extra care & forgiveness, men who have mental problems are broken.

Women who like older men is natural, men who like younger women are gross.

Men who date several women simultaneously are fuckboys, women who date several men are going through self exploration.

Men who are passive or quiet are weak or unconfident, women who are passive or quiet are being unfairly talked over or ignored.

Women affectionate with other women is okay, but men who are affectionate with other men must have sexual desires for men.

That men don’t enjoy things like cleaning/flowers. Coming home to a tidy room that smells nice and seeing fresh flowers? Amazing

All women that have an opinion on who men are or what men should be, Please STFU. We do not care.

Thank you.

That men are not as involved in the raising of their kids as are women.

Lived for my kids, every moment I was not working to support them, I was with them,.
