I can’t stand patriarchal men

They insist on being leaders but they make dumb, short-sighted decisions that don't take into account all the aspects of the problem. If a woman attempts to tell him how it's not going to work, he takes it as a personal attack and interrogates her for an hour to get her to explain how she came to that decision. If she can't because it was an intuitive conclusion, he dismisses it because she's not logical, just silly, emotional and argumentative.

Then when it all predictably fails, he rages some more and berates her for not telling him sooner and helping him save face and deliberately embarrassing him :)

My country men claim women are smarter and more strong willed then men when a man cheats( then they ask her to forgive because she is strong) But when we had a female President elect they almost had a heart attack because according to them women can’t lead.

My ex-fiance believed that few women are smarter than men and if they are, they should hide it as much as possible. He also believed that it's ok for a man to cheater on occasion if he gets bored but divorce-worthy if a woman cheats.

Just came here to say that all men are patriarchal, though. No matter how sensitive, artistic and feminine they’re and act, they don’t play by the same rules and they view women through their own lense.

“Why are most famous people in history men” because most famous people in history were evil e.g Hitler.

58 year old coworker with a 55 year old wife has repeatedly said “I wish my wife still looked the same as when we first got married.” You wish your wife didn’t age 30 years as YOU did? And mind you, he’s obviously wrinkly af! The man, as most, believes a woman’s value lies in her youth and beauty. He’s a constant reminder of what goes on in the minds of sexist men, but out loud.

I see it when I dare to express an intelligent opinion that might counteract theirs in public. Especially when other people agree or take my side. You see a flash of rage in their eyes that you dared to go against them, like it’s the worst thing that could possibly happen to their shitty make ego lol. It’s happened to me countless times when I “stepped out of place.”

LOL scrotes! Women have higher IQs now!

Edit: the best part is that MRAs and other scrotes are usually such IQ fetishists (“muh IQ!!! Geniusezzzz”). I’m not even a huge proponent of IQ as true metric of intelligence, but this is just funny.

I seethe with anger when I see large family groups gathered for an outdoor eating celebration, like a multigenerational family picnic, and see all the women bustling around preparing food, being ‘busy’ while the men stand or sit in groups with their drinks, chatting and not lifting a finger to help. Even grandma in her nineties is busy serving up food to the lazy-ass men.

First of all, men who say “female” because the word “woman” makes them uncomfortable are so weird to me. I just want to say that. Why is the word woman so scary for men to say? I don’t go around saying “the male breed, the male species, this creature…”

Men who think women don’t deserve equal respect typically are insecure and want to overpower women to feel better about themselves. I don’t think that’s a secret to anyone, even themselves.

This type of father is common as dirt in many parts of the world.

As a result, his sons are often never-do-wells because they've never had discipline or structure. The daughters are hard working and often do great in school, but will give it all up in an instant for a man just like him because that's all they know.

The aggressiveness, entitlement, and ego is terrifying. The problem is that society rewards and reinforces this behavior. Men who are successful can feel more comfortable ordering their partners and other people around. Entitled to sex, abuse, their partners' bodies. Sometimes it's part of their job to be intimidating, think police officers, and they transfer it to their partners at home. Luckily, I naturally sense this and gravitate away from it.

One good test is asking a man to do something helpful/feminine-will he assist you with carrying your bag? Will he affectionately hold your hand/comfort you when you're sad? High value encompasses all those things, and it's what I look for in relationships. I do not find workaholics or successful people attractive based on earnings alone. I consider some of the billionaires to be the most terrifying partners-Consider that many of them have slept with underage girls with no remorse. No thank you.

I always found it so weird that they say women are “dumber” but you want her to raise the kids and be their teacher and do the housework. Which takes a lot of patience and skill and years of perfecting. How does that make sense?

Man you described desi men to the T.

Ironsculpture · 2021-09-15T10:45:26+00:00

You don't have to tolerate them. I don't even converse with filth like that.

-They designate all domestic labor as female but also want the wife to work and split everything 50/50

-They want their sons to be playboys and their daughters to be virgins.

-They helicopter over the daughters and punish every slight. Boys can do whatever though. This leads to poor self discipline for adult males.

-They make comments to daughters/sisters/wives over gaining negligible weight while they themselves are obese.

-They don’t recognize or utilize women’s expertise in the work place.

-They will mansplain something they are ill informed on to a woman who is expert on the subject.

-They think their insight is valuable on any subject. No matter how little knowledge they have on it. (Ie. Men on feminist sub Reddits)

They like to play “devil’s advocate”. While making no valuable contributions to the conversation . Just to make sure the attention is put on them as opposed to a minority person speaking be they female/non-binary/non-white etc.

I'm not attracted to manly men due to this.
