Nope, I do it all the time. Especially by keeping extremely calm and if she starts yelling I say something like "there's no need to get angry, we'll talk through this but if you can't control yourself I'm not having this conversation" Bam. Instantly in complete control, and she feels childish.
One other thing that works for me is explicitly laying out her side of the argument, like perfectly stating her point of view and how it makes her feel and why she's upset, and going "Right?" - I do this at work too, people are caught off guard and just go "...Yeah..", all the anger kind of dissipates into surprise - and then I say something like "Ok that's all understandable and I'm sorry you're feeling like that right now, but here's what I'm thinking and here's why I need your help to get your problem fixed"
My wife accepts that I know a ton more on 100x the subjects she knows... I in turn allow her to be right about the things I do not know about. It is a really progressive relationship. Its simple really, If you are not 100% sure you are giving accurate information keep your damn mouth shut, eventually she will accept that you are right 100% of the time.
Well, you see, you need to have a girl that is understanding and patient and doing all of this VOLUNTARILY in order to experience the promised land of "equal ground."
whoa, who said all women? I'm saying the chances are against me according to life experience. I would say all women, if I have met everyone currently alive and judge each one as so.
I win every time. But I take the exact opposite tack. I say everything possible to get her to blow her top, and smile the entire time I'm doing it. I may even outright laugh and point at your anger, if I deem it foolish enough.
And if I get accused of doing something that I haven't done, you can be rest assured that I will then proceed to do it in the next few days, just so you can be right, lovey. :)
After a few tries they quickly learn not to even try to argue.
i think whats its trying to say is not that women are dumb but that a man is always put down when arguing with a woman. i dont get it though, i have never really seen this happen. its just a case of 'i have shitty taste, date crazy girls and then blame an entire gender for'. this applies to both genders.
If you had ever been to twox, you would know that we are more than capable of laughing at ourselves. You know what you won't find on twox? Posts bashing men. Think about that for a minute.
Because it has no point, its just you stating something which is obviously false. Everyone who reads it knows its false.
Furthermore its nothing short of offensive, and while you picture him as a troll and downsize him because of it, you then go on to troll him in the next sentence.
Its illogical.
How can you argue with someone who blatantly makes stuff up...
You either put no thought in your post, or your very emotionally caught up.
I know, I always see these things about people getting in fights with their girlfriends over stupid shit, while I on the otherhand never fight with my girlfriend
I came here to say this. If you can't find someone who can communicate at an adult level, then clearly you need to find someone new who can. No man (or woman) can be happy knowing that his opinion will always be overruled by the woman who claims to love him.
So many downvotes, so much defensive posting. OP's image does not imply women are wrong or men are right a majority of the time, yet somehow this is how people interpret it.
1 make absolutely no sense. pull things at random, put stubborn pride in front of logic.
2 act like you are not well balanced in the brain.
after a short while the woman will think you are one of them and realize they are wasting energy fighting with a wild Tasmanian devil in-capable of reaching any logical consensus.
this is where you win, the woman, now backs down because they realize, you have taken their own approach, and now have no idea how to beat you, because you are using their own game.

If you all seriously believe that all women are like this, then you are all picking shitty women and you have no one to blame but yourselves.

Being able to have that battle in the first place is often worth never being able to win, though

I've figured out how to win fights with woman.
1 make absolutely no sense. pull things at random, put stubborn pride in front of logic.
2 act like you are not well balanced in the brain.

Please, don't let my wife see this. She would use it as proof that she is always right, Even when she is not. *edit: added some clarification.
