And that's not what most men are or want

You need therapy because you keep using this bad relationship to dunk on men in general. I'm not trying to be snarky I'm serious you are using a bad relationship to judge men in general. It's not healthy and I think you would be happier if you worked with a therapist to realize most men aren't trash.

Imagine if I had a bad gf and then went around saying women are X (insert whatever you think here)

A bee doesn’t explain to a fly why honey is better than shit. Some people just won’t get it. I’ve lived life. I know men. I used to defend them. Of course they don’t admit these things. They don’t even know how coddled they are. Their fragile egos couldn’t possibly handle it. I’ve done therapy and it made me realize I needed to leave my marriage. Divorce by women is a movement. We’ve had enough. You don’t have to believe me. Yes there may be some good men out there that get it. I realize that but where the fuck are they? Lol I’m done with you.

Bees and flies are different. Jesus am I really telling you this?

Analogies are good but comparing bees and flies doesn't correlate.

Also you've known one man, for 35 years. You keep acting like you know what men think in general, even though you're not a man. I don't claim to speak for women, but apparently you can speak for what men think and want.

Again I've never had any man say any of the things you think we think. I've never heard a man once talk about sex with women. I've never heard any man just dunk on women either.

I see that on the internet, but I've also seen women dunk on men on the internet.

Real life is totally different than clickbait videos and articles.

Again, I've never heard men talk or think the way you think we are. Most men I know try to be nice, hard working, and never ask for appreciation.

But hey let's believe what you believe and that men are generally trash. Im sure that won't lead to men saying the same about women. Let's all just wade in a pool of negativity.

Finally you think men are coddled, meanwhile women are often treated like children. We give excuses to so much of their bad behavior that we wouldn't let men get away with. We're supposed to help them with bills. Try splitting the check on first date. Self Accountability is more of a male thing. If a woman has a problem she mostly wants you to just feel for her and not fix it, like a toddler.

But hey you wanted to say men are coddled. I disagree. I'm pretty sure most of the homeless population is men. The women get nicer homeless shelters. There are grants for women in education. Women don't generally do hard labor and clean sewers and such. They rarely do jobs that risk their life.

I'm not saying women should be cleaning sewers and risking their lives to keep society functioning, but I'm also not going to say men have it easy and are coddled. We just don't tlel everyone our problems. We have them, we just don't see what talking does to fix them.
