GUYS ARE ASSHOLES!!!

[ReaperzXIII]

My reaction to girls like that:

"Aww thanks! How did you know I recently got my certificate of assholism?!" Then if they even mention the concept of being in love I berrate them with the whole you aren't even old enough to understand the concept of love you retard it was petty infatuation argument.

I think girls forget that they are, in fact, the most bitchiest gender. I hung around with guys when I were a wee lass, because even at the age of seven I could tell that girls in groups were friends one minute and then at each other's throats the next.

Growing up liking boys toys rather than girls toys may have saved me from a lifetime of bitching. I am thankful for men in this world. XD

 

[JezebelinHell]

Oh, I got a good story, my ex dumped me for another guy then he dumped her and then he got cancer (karma for one, jerk) and she expects me to feel sympathetic for him.

(Actually upon reading this, I really am an asshole, oh well, lifes a *****)

You can't be an asshole you have a cute little bunny avatar!

I don't generalize about guys, I am more logical and fact based, I guess, and girls typically baffle me too. I have actually found that most of my guy friends point out what an asshole I was dating and will give me examples as to why I am better off without them. :/ I don't usually date the popular guys or the ones all the girls find attractive, as I have apparently different tastes. I have shocked some guys I have chosen to date... They have still ended up being assholes. IDK, I have some sort of invisible sign that says "Oh sure you can screw around on me with my one of my friends", I think. Even when my friends at the time wouldn't have given the guy a second look before I decided to go out with him. Maybe I have had a combination of a friend/boyfriend problem. Now most of my friends are straight guys, not much problem there you would think but they tend to make guys I date jealous so I can't win but I still like my guy friends better anyway, we have more in common.

So, I guess if you really want to be a friend to the girl spouting off like that you should not take it personally and try agreeing and pointing out the flaws with the guy she was dating. Although I expect most girls are going to defend him, go figure... It is really a matter of time passing more than anything you can do to get her through it. Just don't do it just because you are interested in her. That will probably leave you bitter and spouting off generalizations about girls. At some point also realize that you cannot always save someone from themselves no matter what you do. They are probably going to go screw it up again, decide for yourself what your limits are for dealing with the bs.

If you are interested in her, I am not so sure if you shouldn't just be unavailable at that point. We all want most that which we cannot have and it may save you a bit of emotional baggage of your own.

And yea, I have some of you guys in my past, one that is still my best friend and one that is super bitter at me, both extremes. All I can tell you is that there are things that attracted me to some guys and others just didn't have it even though I was not into the whole mainstream standards of attractiveness. A lot of it has to do with mannerisms that I cannot even explain. Confidence(not arrogance) and a sense of humor are always good things. And you will find them both useful regardless of situations. Just realize that it may be something that is just impossible for you to change. Make a decision on your limits to trying to convince her and cut your losses, it happens.

Prolly TLDR but hey that is what you are getting from me at 2 hours past my bedtime. It may not be sound advice at all but I bet it is somewhat logical...

My only problem is double standards. I don't take issue with someone who has been hurt who hasn't yet worked through their emotions. But to insinuate that a gender can be better or worse is pretty ludicrous. I know some girls who are high and flyin' on the female power trip, and don't realize that they are just as guilty of the double standards which they claim to despise in men.

 

[zombiestrangler]

HEY! I am not an asshole!
I am a dickhead. There IS a difference.

 

[Twilight_guy]

Meh, Any statements like that are made out of ignorance and/or emotional stress. There's no reason for me to get mad over them. There also massively sexist which makes the speaker look like even more like an idiot.

 

[Hristo Petrov]

When I hear a girl say "all men are assholes" I say "well maybe men won't be such assholes if women weren't such bitches".

 

[jamesworkshop]

Only a man would start a thread like this...

Just kidding, in all seriousness I as a female can't stand women like that. I mean I understand that fifty years ago suffrage was needed to bring about equal rights but now it seems like most "feminists" want women to have more rights than men.

women have had the right to vote for 82 years

 

[Erja_Perttu]

Not all guys are assholes. I know four who aren't! I think that must be some kind of record.

 

[Kais86]

Doesn't phase me in the slightest, if she has that degree of poor judgment, then she can suffer for it.

 

[Ithera]

Chicks dig assholes and nice guys always finish last. You get what you pay for.

 

[curty129]

"Am an asshole so i cant say nuthin really." - Well the original suject in this thread never bothered me since they're clearly just idiots to believe such a thing, whereas to hear a reply that involves a variation of this quote, is extremely annoying.

 

[TheWwwizard]

Well since I'm a pretty nice dude 90% of the time I'd just ignore it, it does annoy me a bit though just because it's such a generalized statement.

Feminism means only that you want equality of the sexes.
Linkara from TGWTG has proudly proclaimed that he's a feminist multiple times. Unless you're particularly sexist yourself, you should be a feminist.

Then why call it "feminism"? Why not "humanism" or "equality"?

The intended definition of feminism may indeed be equality between the sexes, but the word itself emphasises a feminine point of view, and quite a few feminists actively encourage discrimination against men - they call it "positive discrimination" as if there can be any such thing. To some self-professed feminists it's nothing more than a revenge fantasy for generations of perceived poor treatment at the hands of men, but taking it out on today's men, most of whom have never in their lives even thought about oppressing any woman.

I want to see true equality between men and women, but I would never call myself a feminist, the word has too much other baggage attached.

Just look at your reaction- the term immediately illicits the idea of women getting so many more rights than they, by current standards, should have. That's exactly why the term became the name for wanting equal rights between the sexes. At the dawn of feminism, the idea of women being peers to men was outrageous, and therefore, the term implied exactly what it was intending to do.
Nowadays, the gap has gotten a lot closer, but the word still remains. The term's been around for over 100 years, though, and saying that one should abstain from Feminism or anything relating to the term because its antiquated name may suggest something is irrational.

MMm I can copy paste the n-word where feminist is and suddenly your argument falls apart.

Care to try again?

Just because a term has been used for over 100 years and had relatively benign origins does not mean it still has the same connotation today as it did then.

For example the swastika. Before ww2: Oh hey its a symbol of another culture. After? NAZI!
oooh but it's a symbol that is over 3000 years old and means "to be good". That means we should still use it!

Things change, People change, Culture changes. I'll give you that feminism means equality between the sexes and it still does. Unfortunately the radical version of it gets more airtime on the news as well as stirs people's emotions simply for being more radical than what is to be expected of the norm.

It annoys me to an extent, however I remind myself that there seems to be a majority of men in the world who are "fuckfaces" and hence just accept it and continue with my business.

 

[Samfisher92]

Ur an asshole for saying that...

 

[Sarahcidal]

as a giri i HATE when chicks say crap like this.
im sure most of you have the same issue i do.. every single time you log onto facebook, your feed is loaded with the girls on your friends list "men suck!" yadda yadda status updates.
that's bull.
in my experience, it seems the girls who are complaining that ALL guys are assholes, are assholes themselves.. yet somehow they fail to see it and therefore cannot understand why guys are "treating them like crap".
it's both sad and irritating.. i'm on your side here guys.

 

[brainslurper]

Just tell the girl she's a B with a capital C and see if she figures out waht it means.

anyway, it annoys me, but I'm not that thin skinned. besides, usually I did something asshole-y(? really, thats spelled right?) for them to say that first.

better then spelling it Ass Holy

 

[angry_flashlight]

This wouldn't bug me if it was said in anger/frustration (who hasn't said something like this when they're angry? Be honest. Yeah, I thought so.) but if it was said with literal intent then it might grind my gears a little. Depends on how well I know the female in question. Responses could range from a "Want to talk about it?" to "Women are total fucktards too." Depends how I feel.

 

[loc978]

All social generalizations bother me a little. No one human being is actually that much like another (though many of us certainly try to be)... to take 49% of humankind and say they're all rude and brutish is completely ludicrous... much like saying the other 51% are all vindictive and hypersensitive. Just plain silly.
