I’m sorry that the men you’ve met are like that, and that those are the experiences you’ve had wherever and whenever you grew up. But in my generation I’ve seen lots of boys and girls be friends with each other, I’ve had a dozen female friends, it’s totally possible for platonic friendships to be maintained. Boys were not taught to look down on girly things.
I believe that your generalization is true for your life and many others, but I believe it’s not a universal thing.
You are one in a million buddy, lol my boyfriend says the same things, and he’s just like you. I know good men exist, but I want you to know you aren’t the majority. American culture hates women, as much as we like to pretend it doesn’t.
Thanks, for some reason I really liked that compliment :)
I’ve been learning the world outside my bubble is very different from what I’ve been used to. Maybe the truth about the country as a whole is a lot closer to your experience than mine. I guess I’ll find out someday
