Before you get all excited, let me say that I am no feminist, far from it. I don’t think women should play lead guitar in rock bands, and I don’t want them to be sports commentators. I don’t want men to be strippers or nurses, either. If you need explanations for this, you know where to find me.
So, let’s examine why men hate women! Maybe you disagree with the premise, in which case, try thinking about burkas, chadors, clitorectomy, honor killings in India and Pakistan, blah blah blah. Now, all men are affected to some degree by their fear and loathing of women. This is not to say they don’t also love and desire women, but the fear and loathing exists at a primal subconscious level, and is played out continually in all societies. Bottom line cause: The first authority figure in every man’s life is a woman, whose power over him is absolute. She can withhold the breast, the bottle, all forms of comfort, life itself. Bad Mommy! She is not always there to provide what he wants, and later, she will probably even yell at him when he pees on the floor. He will never get over this early experience, and he will project it upon every woman he meets for the rest of his life.
You might be asking why women don’t grow up hating women, but maybe you realize that because every female infant will grow up to be like mommy, they internalize her instead. She is not the enemy: she is their gender role model.
If you’re reading this and you’re a man, by now you’re either mad or snickering with distain. If you’re a woman, you’re going either Yes, thank you for articulating this Unconscious Knowledge, Sister Wolf! Or else you’re going Big duh. Men: WE KNOW YOU FEAR AND LOATHE US! We still love you and we need you for all kinds of things! We need you for sex, for money, for opening bottles and taking out the trash. We just can’t quit you! Don’t even worry. But we see your hatred every day, all over the world. You fear our sexuality, so you make us wear big blue beehives and cover our hair. Or you make us get breast implants in order to get your attention and/or demean us. You hate us when we’re assertive. Every male insult for women has to do with power: we are bitches, cunts, ball-breakers, shrews, battle-axes! Men don’t even try to insult us by calling us weaklings, or babies. Because those traits don’t make us feel threatened (i.e. mad.)
Men love our bodies, but they must first overcome their fear and loathing of our V area, which in the adult woman is covered with hair. Eeow, get rid of that hair, it’s too scary! If we wax it off for you, though, it will look like a child’s V area, which is harmless. Not only that, a waxed V area is naked in a sad, vulnerable kind of way, like a sheared lamb. If you disagree with this last point, on aesthetic grounds, okay (you pederast!) but before I would wax my precious V, I would have to say: “First wax your balls, pal and then we’ll talk about it.” Finally, there is female armpit hair, the scariest sight you can impose upon any man in the Western hemisphere. If you’re a woman with unshaven armpits, you are a woman with THREE PUSSIES, and few men are up to that challenge. My husband however is one of them, I am happy to report. But the average man will react like a vampire faced with the sign of a cross.
There you have it. I feel this is enough to set you on the right track. I could elaborate for a hundred pages, but my pigsty awaits me, and my husband has rented a movie. Since he handles my armpits with such courage and grace, I will go and join him for the stupid movie.
Hell, I don’t mind if a women chooses not to shave… I’m pretty hairy, and I wouldn’t ask my girlfriend to do something that I’m not going to do!
Once again, I just had to link to you over at
http://linkateria.blogspot.com
I think a lot about shaved and waxed snatch (I am the proprietress of the Campaign for Unshaved Snatch (CUSS) & Other Rants), but I never made the underarm link. The “three pussies” theory is pretty damn brilliant. Very CUSS-worthy.
so basically, we hate you because you’re powerful ?
thats like saying “oh they hate me because im too real”, or “people hate me because i tell it how it is”.
people hate people because of the bad qualities they posess. men, i, we, hate women because of the bad qualities they display, nothing more nothing less.
your page here shows up a bad quality you posess, which is that you blame the person hating you for hating you, rather than thinking for a moment “maybe i am to blame ?”
/rolls up her sleeves and puts on the rubber gloves]
ok mikenothing… let’s start with the first flaw in your argument; you didn’t respond to refute the author’s premise, nor any of her inductive logic, nor any of her supporting points. Instead, second flaw – you commit the most common logical error found on the net (beloved by trolls); you respond with a very poorly argued personal attack. Let me show you how it’s done.
“people hate people because of the bad qualities they possess.” Where did you get this information? I can point you to plenty of clinically validated research that suggests, rather, that we hate because our limbic system supercedes our executive centers of the brain; we hate because the primitive mammalian part of our brain responds in fight or flight impulses to perceived threat, and due to its inherent limitations, generalizes the source of threat (having a reflexive reaction to all snakes, instead of individual snakes, is a greater asset to survival – hence we “hate snakes” rather than hating individual reptiles). People hate because they are afraid, and that is something I absolutely can find substantial empirical data to support. What people identify as threatening may be something that threatens their ego, or their lifestyle, their identity, their comfort zone, or anything else of value to them (not just their life). (for a good survey, see “why we hate” by Jack Levin, 2004). Virtue has little, if anything, to do with hate. Relative power, on the other hand, has everything to do with it, since power and vulnerability are inversely related.
first off i agree with you, but identifying mens hatred for women with: “they hate us becuase they feel thretend by us” or “they make us get implants” just sound pathedic on our part
when a man insults you its as simple as >>dont listen
Your absolutely right….
The privileged Princess is easy to hate.
I hate women because they have to talk continually and incessantly about nothing. I hate modern women because they want the best parts of being a man and the best parts of being a woman without the shit end of either. I hate women because they will start a fight calling a man every vile thing she can think of only to roll over like a whipped dog and cry when the guy finally gets shit full of her and abuses her back in a like manner. Heaven forbid a man smack a woman for hitting him, scratching biting or throwing stuff at him. Don’t allow a guy to defend himself. I was raised by a woman. 85% of my teachers were women most of whom loathed boys because we acted like boys. Now they just put them on ritalin. I hve married two women and like the current wife, although the first one almost made me swear off all women. By and large most women are unlikable and that’s why i hate women
Bill and Mike are correct, and I would add this……………………..women should worry more about the reasons men hate them than the fact they do. Hell women hate each other. The vast majority (not all) despise men, despise each other, are extremely jealous of another’s (particulary another woman’s) successes, their own failure, lie, backstabbing, vile, and consistently angry when they dont get their own way. And worst of all they think withholding sex from their partner will make men do what they want. Wrong, it makes men leave and find it elsewhere
It doesn’t really matter, ultimately. Women are finally beginning to turn men off in record numbers. They are stubborn, irrational and unreasonable and they refuse to see any fault at all in themselves even when men tell them what the problems they have with them really are; they immediately run to the tough girl persona whenever valid criticism of them as supposedly equal human beings is presented to them That’s nearly sociopathic behavior.
So ultimately they end up alone and more bitter and sour than ever unless they find a very weak, milquetoast man with whom they’ll never be satisfied. Strange, when I was a little boy I used to think women were better than men in many ways. Familiarity breeds contempt.
Fun post, but the gender feminist construct of fear as displayed here as usual misses half of the psychological equation. The one a boy fears more… his father.
And yet, just like girls, if we have knowledgeable parents, and most importantly mothers who have accepted they are not the center of the universe, we grow quite to be quite healthy and don’t remain one y.o. forever. I do find it interesting that in the west, the second happiest group behind married couples is… single men. Free from the genfem claptrap indoctrination we find life can actually be very pleasant. I am thankful that I have a choice. I don’t have to get married either. I don’t have to engage in rigid expectations. I still have to pay for the chivalrous nanny state via tax dollars, but TANSFALS. Enjoy your anti-depressants and cats. Nah I say that in jest. Not a bad post, and I understand your point, but it just doesn’t resonate with many of us guys, and we find it intellectually flawed.
The reason that men hate women is simple. Lack of understanding. What we do not understand, we just choose to hate.
I do not blame women for being angry at men, or men for being angry at women. We did not grow up in the same way. Men were taught to be “macho”. Women sensitive and caring.
When we met the opposite sex, the differences were apparent. Hostility then occurred naturally.
I am bitter that schools do not have a class on male and female differences, because obviously men are from Mars and women are from Venus.
I think it all ultimately boils down to men having had it so good for so long that any woman raising her head in dissent has to be swiftly ridiculed or bullied back into place serving some kind of male need or allaying their fears.
The dude who goes on about women being almost sociopaths in their changing from sweet to sour in minutes is refusing to acknowledge that we all have both sides in us – yes, even men – namely, the harsh and aggressive and the tender and sweet. It’s just that men, having been in power over women for so long, are unwilling to have to redefine themselves when some traits they’ve come to characterise as their own are manifested by creatures previously pigeon-holed into the narrow space of ‘nurturer, giver’ and other non-threatening roles.
We all know that no-one likes an angry woman but after centuries of having your identity and very nature defined for you by others in an attempt to clarify to themselves who they are, wouldn’t you be angry? Stop fighting it, just try to understand it in the women you care about.
So I suppose we should roll over for you and play dead? How old are you? Did you grow up in that world? Or did you grow up in the post feminist one? EVERYBODY’S identity is determined by exterior forces. Men tried to control women for centuries through representations in art and literature as well as religious and legislative restrictions. This is true. Nobody can argue it. But does that now give contemporary (often college educated and vegetarian with a strong interest in Orientalism while being unaware that it represents a form of intellectual imperialism in the hands of middle class Westerners. Some also have red hair and end up dating professors-yes, that’s my ex) women carte blanche to do and say as they please. You will see the gender gap widen in your favor for a while. But don’t let hubris get the better of you.
Also, I don’t know who told one of these guys that women were raised to be caring. They are raised to feign caring as a means to an end, like all humans. Ultimately, they are no better or worse than men. They are our equals. Which means they are just as crummy as we are. Human beings are bad animals that will hopefully disappear leaving this rock quiet again. And I am glad I won’t be around to see it.
I hate women, period! Including my MUM and current girlfriend.
Strength and intelligence are often confused with each other… especially by people lacking one or more of those qualities!
And here it would be all too easy to suggest that women tend to lack those qualities if they seem not to understand them properly. For example, for the last few months, blogs have been full of postings by women complaining that men are uncomfortable with – or even frightened away by – women´s strength and intelligence. That we men are afraid to love you amazons!
Okay, fair enough. There is a real problem. But I believe what is compounding these problems and making honorable romance nearly impossible, is men – and some modern women´s – differing definitions of intelligence. For, as is often noted, the most erogenous zone in the human body is the brain (which fortunately – or unfortunately – is yet to be enhanced by silicone). And as everyone knows, the amount of brain-power varies. In this respect we men are often accused by some of you women of cowardice when it comes to choosing our sexual partners. We men are often accused of preferring rather stupid women because we fear their more intelligent “sisters.”
Okay, let me be honest. This accusation is close to the truth, but not quite the truth. For the truth is this: We men prefer honestly stupid women to women who merely think they´re smart but are not! For it is the coward, is it not, who feels the need to constantly proclaim his bravery, and the weakling to claim a strength he does not possess? How strong can a woman truly be if she has to keep bragging about her strength? In heaven´s name, isn´t this the crux to the whole “men can´t seem to adjust happily to today´s strong women” debate? The simple difference between true strength of character – and mere energetic hostility and mule-headed stubbornness?
For there unfortunately exists a whole class of women who are boring at best and irritating at worst. These women are boring because they have no identity as individuals but can only see themselves as women, that is as the opposing pole to a man. Everything in these poor creatures´ sad lives seems to be defined by what is diametrically opposite to what men think, do and like. This, of course, is not a uniquely female ailment. Those men who can only define themselves as “men” are equally boring and stupid. One has only to think of motorcycle thugs, vulgar-mouthed and sexist construction workers, and sports animals like Mike Tyson. Obviously it´s a lesson we should teach our sons and daughters – When you let yourself be defined by your testicles or your ovaries you´re in trouble!
So there is a type of woman that we men do in fact seek to avoid. This is the individual who happened to be born into the body of a woman and has become strangled by it. These women are often bitter (many times justly so) because of the treatment they believe they have received at the hands of men. And their bitterness shows itself quite actively in the form of cynicism, sarcasm, and cold hostility. But what do these women say when they see men back away from them in revulsion? They smile with evil satisfaction and say, “The wimp was driven away by my intelligence! He was intimidated by my strength!” Oh, please!
Yes, when confronted with such irritating examples of neurotic behavior we men do tend to openly and honestly prefer women who do not boast about an intelligence they do not in fact possess. That is why a Marilyn Monroe-type will always be preferred by men to a Bette Davis whose only talent is the sting of her tongue. Admittedly, we men do tend to have a soft spot in our hearts, a genuine fondness for cheap women, confused women, dumb women. But only when they are basically happy and optimistic. For strangely, dumb people, men and women, are often the most pleasant and playful types to be around. They are generally cheerful and blissfully unaware of what a black valley of despair this world really is. And they tend to neither dwell on past sorrows nor look ahead with pessimism to future calamities. Check the suicide statistics and you´ll find that the lower the IQ the lower the incidence of the ultimate self-disgust! Abundance of anything always brings boredom and dissatisfaction. That´s why rich people tend to kill themselves at a much higher rate than poor people do. Dumb women are prized by us men because they´re easier to make happy, easier to cheer up. When a dumb woman is feeling down it´s often quite enough to give her a shiny stone from the back garden or recite her a poem which begins with “Roses are red – violets are blue..” and which ends with “..which is why I love you!” Their faces will light up and they will giggle most charmingly (and infectiously). But a self-proclaimed intelligent woman will never fall for this cheap sort of masculine soothing. No, a self-proclaimed intelligent woman will insist that you discuss and debate Simone de Bouvier, Sylvia Plath, Gloria Steinem, and the fact that no woman yet has ever organized a Treblenka!
And when she is finished slashing and hacking and demolishing whatever nervous and placating remarks you may have been foolish enough to offer, she will be unhappier than she was to begin with. And it is at this point that we men (who normally feel exploited and manipulated when it comes to the game of romance) begin to wildly look around for some desperate romantic gesture which will placate and soften the hearts of these angry and resentful furies. “You have such beautiful eyes (stop staring at me like that!)”, we stammer. “Honest!”
(It is at this point that I must point out, in all fairness, that not all modern women are like the blockheads I have described above. Or even a majority. No, I´m just talking about the ones who are emotionally crippled enough to get involved with me!)
RRRrrraaaaarrrgghhHHH!
I’m as angry as a tyranosaurus about this.
I’m afraid of women more than my dad?
FFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU…
Lol. This article is trash coz a woman wrote it, nowdays women must take da trash themself
Get back in the kitchen and make me a sammich.
Nothing, I mean nothing irritatats my ass more than a woman who consistently blame men for there OWN shortcomings. As if by default, because she is a woman, she should be treated a certain way with respect and dignity, even if she comes off like a lets say, a gold digging, lying, manipulatve, conniving, brainless, worthless, overrated, stank, slut, tramp, hairy, smelly ape. Or to put it more succintly, because she is pretty. WOMEN IT IS ABOUT TIME SOME MAN HAS REAL BALLS TO TELL YOU, YOU ARE NOT ENTITLED TO ANYTHING GOOD BY DEFAULT. NOTHING!!!! EARN IT LIKE EVERYONE ELSE OR SHUT THE HELL UP ABOUT MEN. WE OWE YOU NOTHING, NOR OBLIGATED TO GIVE YOU ANYTHING BECAUSE YOU ARE PRETTY. IF WE DO NOT LIKE YOU, OR RESPECT YOU, OR NEEED YOU. GET LOST. THIS REDICULOUS SENSE OF ENTITLEMENT OR WANTING SOMETHING FOR NOTHING MOST OF YOU WALK AROUND FEELING IS baseless AND WILL ALWAYS BE YOU DOWNFALL. Your treated like prostitutes because most of you act like prositutes with no sense of class, modesty, humility, intelligenc, or style.
Chronic insecurity and an over abundance of narcissism is at the very core of 85% of the women that walk this planet. And it is a fact that most women hate what they see in the mirror, have serious self image issues, and wear more makeup than a popular clown at a kids party. Not to mention the fake body parts; hair weaves, fake tits, fake eye color, fake eyelashes, fake nails, fake ass cheeks, fake plump lips(upper and lower) and these women have the audacity, let alone demand, something REAL or to be taken seriously. Most of you don’t even look like real people. YOUR FAKES!!! Got it!!! FAKES!!! From top to bottom. BOTOX, OMG!!! Most women have no personaliteis to begin with, so I gues being totally expressionless was inevitably the next step. Hmmmmm sexy MUMMY IN A TOMB LOOK. And here this author has written an article about man’s “fear of women,” hairy V area and hairy arm pits. Your confusing fear with the “who the f@#$% are you,” look that often permeates our faces when we have to look at your clown face and hairy ass Chubacka!!!! And even the sex can’t save most of you whose ship, weighed down by loads and loads of insecurity, and mindless verbal chatter that even the most patient man grows tired of, is sinking faster than the Titantic. Because despite all the money women spend on their outward appearances, heavy cosmetics, or cosmetic surgury, skimpy clothes,..they always seem to miss the most important ingrediant of all: Substance. Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaat? Yeah, that inner glue that holds it all together kid. Class, modesty, style, grace, humility, and most of all a sense of humor. Can’t buy that. Sorry. Hence why so many of you women can’t keep a man, one night stands, doomed to be alone, or sharing a boyfriend or husband with another woman; particualry as you get older and you no longer have your looks(or a stripper pole to swing from) to bank on. Most men don’t hate women because they are women. Most hate them because women hate themselves. YOU HATE YOU!!! AND YOU’VE DONE EVERYTING TO PROVE IT, RIGHT DOWN TO SELF HATE, EATING DISORDERS, SELLING YOUR BODY TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER, AND SELF MUTILATION. DEAL WITH THAT TRUTH.
And finally, don’t blame men who have been enlightend or just now waking the F#$% up and seeing most women (not all women, the classy ones know who they are)) for the manipulative, overrated, conniving, brainless, PLASTIC SHELL wanna be hookers that only the desparate will ever bother to date and spend hard earn money on. And they can have all their tired, worn, asses. Do what you will with them fellows. And leave the classy honies, who are just as interesting in the bedroom as out of it, to a the luckiest man alive…ME. And I kept plenty of money in my wallet and account to booth. And added benefit of dealing with the right ladies. You won’t go broke trying to impress them. They know bull@#$.%
Hey, I wrote the above artcle rather quickly, so don’t hold the mis-spelled words against me.:)
gosh, some people here are really angry. And Dexter VanDango your post was really intelligent, and as a young lady I agree with you completely, both women and men have flaws.
to derrick: I don’t think that bashing the opposite sex is the most mature way of arguing your point.
Holy Cow! How did we get to this state of affairs?? I, an intelligent woman, have believed for some time that there’s something about me that men hate. I just wish someone would tell me what it is. Hey, I’m a big soul-searcher, and I think I can look at myself honestly, but I seem to attract, or not attract, men whom I presume hate me for my intelligence because otherwise I’m pretty sure I”m in the normal range of flawed humanity. I’ve been told by friends that I’m kind, loyal, passionate, all kinds of good things. Lately I’ve gotten into the things I’m passionate about and have tried to stop worrying about all this. It seems to be a global pandemic…men hating women; somen hating men. And I don’t want to be a part of it. I hope you all find your perfect partners.
You got it Derrick! My thoughts exactly. You’re supposed to pander to
them and give in to their every little whim. BULLSHIT! I tried the nice guy
routine. IT DIDN’T WORK. NICE GUYS GET SHIT ON. Yes, I’m mad as hell
and won’t take it anymore. Most women are a waste of time, not to mention your money! If there are any good ones left I’d like to know where the hell they are!
I think I will go out and kill myself because I really DO love men…
Oh, but wait, I need to touch up my roots first.
You all got it close….All women want one thing….to be worshiped. BUT it’s not *them* that wants your soul. It’s the forces that operate through them from *beyond* them that wants to dominate. They are being acted through and they have vast reservors of power they can tap into at will. How does a 115 pound woman beat a 200 man? INTIMIDATION! It’s the contstant mind games women play that get a mans goat. Females: It is your unwillingness to be corrected that turns men off and turn us off you do. It’s your ego that need to corrected. You need men for one thing only….to be corrected. That is what will save you from what is controlling you-get it? No, you don’t! See? You were created to be a help mate to a man but you refuse to help. You want it all but you arn’t getting me that’s for sure! I am staying away from you forever. You don’t deserve a good man and I thank God above I am not involved. You missed out big time. Ps. This generation of women sucks in general….no soul.
The Gods closed it shortly after first telling me that back in the day she verbally told him to just let it happen.
They wanted to get “dealt in” to the Situation. Ironic, because this volunatary act ensured he would not be a candidate for accention.
Poetic justice.
Closing it was a clue about this family for those without the wisdom to understand the God’s prior clues:::His EXTREME case of poison ivy, punishment for their involvement in this evil.
What a jumbled argumentation that flatly boils down to some reductionistic pseudo psychology bs. Clearly you have no clue whatsoever. The essay itself is suffering from some personally opionated hyperbole. As if it were that easy to decipher a single solution to the problems between people in a postmodern society or bridge the sex gap.
Yeah we heard it all before, pain and pleasure principle now with a gist of freudian psychobabble. Bar all the Mother and Father figure and the impact they have on the child, (Which btw varies tremendously if you compare different cultures)*Riddle me this. It speaks volumes that womens aggresiveness is not physical but still they are as violent as men but in the context of social interaction. They display instead a form of psychological abuse albeit as violent as the mens large-stick-principle, and noone can be as cruel as women. You are very good at making others feeling miserable. Early in life they form cliques and behave like asses to eachother and I´ve been frankly chocked to hear how women treat eachothers. Nothing controversial here. Men can be pigs but what then are women? Men are no saints easily ahead of women in physical arena of violence and crime! Feminism is often right on track here but often fails to mention that aggression is displayed differently in both sexes. Of course you all have an axe to grind. Everyone has why shouldn´t you? Aggression is not simply explained by fear, it´s complex and reaches far beyond miscommunication.
But sure you can give eachother hell and you (the proverbial) can surely use these “tools” against your partners as good as anyone. But then to generalize you personal bad experiences with the men that you choose and get involved with, to the entire population – the plethora- of men, as human beings. That is only going to end up in a self fulfilling prophecy, e.g if you look for it you will find it.
Look instead to the self hating culture that teaches insecurity and narcisissm to both sexes BUT are crucially aimed at women, just so you and everyone else can be easy pickings on the market, trying to buy back some self esteem. The term deadface is used in the fashion industry about the expression on the models, they are reduced to a nonhuman, an object a commodity. This seem to be the unreflected ideal for many women today where the self becomes a fetish to be worshipped and of course scrutinized. Substance is left out in these false equation and all that is left is a dead face. But at least everyone has veryyyy nice shoes..
Oh and lets not forget that the instituion of marriage at it first installment was a economical transaction, not the rosy colored romanticized dreams of some Hollywood production.
I think men’s fear of women’s power is obvious and reflected in their belief that women should be soft, gentle, humble, nurturing and submissive to men. What a load of b.s., as indicated in my linked article.
After the rape of the 15 year old high school student here in California last week, I researched gang rape and was shocked to discover how more and more men are engaging in that beastly behavior. Apparently in a last ditch effort to bring women down to their level and vent their rage. This group rape mentality is taking place all over the world, so it’s not just here in the U.S. Men everywhere are angry at women and taking it out on them with violence and their top weapon of choice – their penis. You are onto something here…
All I know is if the available men out there are like many of the above posters, I’ll continue to be serenely single. And the last two men I dated were totally completely after my $$. Able bodied, intelligent, couldn’t keep a dime in their pockets so had to suck off of my bank account. Both were kicked to the curb in record time.
Some of you men on here who are complaining are certainly a lot of bitter old guys. It seems men never take the time to listen, case in point, here. Not every woman is like that, just like every man is not like that. You can’t stereotype women or men, that is where the problem lies. The men on here who are saying they hate women, you obviously have problems. Your reasons aren’t even valid, you might as well be racist.
While girls are growing up, they have a lot of competing to do (for boys). Some of you said women hate women – only because of men. Appreciate the differences – don’t hate women because they’re different. I agree – men and women have flaws, no-one’s perfect, so guys – get off your high horses.
I feel sorry for you man, you’re sick

You are all so very wrong!
68% of all people who commit suicide are men.
Ever thought about why?
Men are biologically programmed to try to impregnate every woman he sees(unless he`s gay), but on the other there is stability and a sense of “gatherness” that he can achieve with a woman. You know, this thing called love, or more accuratly;what makes him human.
So, for everytime he gets layed in a meeningless fashion (leading to no offspring and no love) He may not think it, but there is a part of him that feels wasted, unloved and used.
Yes, I know, these are the kinds of things an older woman would tell a younger woman to keep her from loosing her virginity, but this is not not an old wives tale, this is more often than not, fact.
What I read here is a lot of self-hatred projected onto men. Men don’t hate women for being women. Men hate women who are self-important, think they are men, entitled simply because they have a vagina, and are, for all accounts and purposes, useless to everyone (except themselves, of course). That this describes about 60% of American women under 50 is a problem with womanhood.
Everyone lives in a patriachal society. As long as it is that way, we will always have ‘battle of the sexes’. It is obvious when there is no balance, no one is happy. No one respects men for their inspid need to control and fear of being controlled, mostly by their genitalia. As far as men who use their penis as a weapon, then their weapon should be taken from them as far as I’m concerned. As far as the helpmate crap someone mentioned, obviously not everyone needs a man to help them. I certainly don’t, never did.
Has it ever occured to anyone that no one person is the same? We have all had differing life experiences and genetics, that have crafted the person that we have grown up to be. That explains so much- if you really examine the individual life experiences and factors that play into ones life. This may explain some. But culture and social indoctrination also play key roles in how people behave. The reason that women don’t trust men, is because men are constantly viewing them as a potential f..k! Men, in general, try to control women and women want to be left alone…most of the time. Not because they don’t like men- they don’t have as much sex drive as a man. Even female animals only engage in sex acitivity when they are in estrus. The rest of the time, they will run off a male. The reason that female humans don’t have an estus cycle is because they evolved to be so- to accomodate the male of the species…so that she could survive! If you don’t believe that…try educating yourselves and you will find that numerous studies have been conducted on this particular subject. Maybe women are trying to return to their natural state of being…now that they are safe…or not! If men would back off a bit, they may find that women warm up to them. They don’t constantly need to be controlling everything.

Simple funny cartoon about sometimes how it seems to work.
However, I think that its absolutely amazing that this is an article. You are dealing in absolutes, and nothing is as such. You guys should all remember that shades of grey are everywhere, and not everyone is as they seem.
Perhaps we should stop concentrating on who hates who, and actually just become better human beings as a whole.
Men force women to get implants now. If women want attention why don’t they initiate a convo instead of expecting men to do everything for them. If a woman gets a implants its her choice no man is forcing this on her, its just a cop out from actually improving oneself.
Women are naturally sexual and they can easily acquire more sexual partners of the opposite sex than men can. Whereas men need to fight hard to protect their women from being kidnapped, raped, impregnated, and/or killed by other men. It’s no wonder men are so competitive and possessive because there’s actually more men than women in the world and that men typically don’t have many choices when it comes to the opposite sex.
I will give you the junior psychology major answer in kind …
“Women are continually behind men because of their fundamental desire to be Daddies princess. Men know this yet they cant resist the desire to protect and provide. Ultimately women the world over continue to live, survive and prosper due to Daddy.”
The problem is the Derricks of the world.
EVERYONE wants something for nothing. Why do people buy lottery tickets? Why do men want a woman that cooks, cleans, and fucks him without ever being a bitch?
I HATE gender roles. I hate it when people think a woman or man should act one way or another. If you look at different cultures around the world, you will see cultures where it is the WOMAN who is expected to do the physical labor, and other cultures where men are expected to be pretty. I hate gender roles, I hate culture, and I hate religion. All those things are is pigeon-holes that you can’t break out of otherwise you piss the Derricks off for being, well, yourself. Not every girl is going to be nice. Not every girl is going to be reasonable. Some are just cunts. Just like men can be dicks.
And psychology has shown us that it is easier to pigeon-hole (from what I was taught it had a lot to do with how much information brains can actually store. It’s easier for the brain to group things, and ignore anything that breaks from the groups as being too much information. Like some Natives of some countries seeing Europeans for the first time. The Natives didn’t even respond because it was information that was novel, and it was easier to just block it out). But the same brain that helps us not beat our enemies to death when we are pissed off, could be taught that not all snakes are poisonous. It’s just that people don’t want to be taught.
All the shit the men above are complaining about is socialization. The “girls rule, boys drool” that gives some women entitlement complexes. Most of that shit is low self-esteem. They try to make themselves feel better by putting others down.
Whether men like to admit it or not, it is partly their fault. Personality is partly environmental and partly genetic. If women are being bitches, it is because men are CHOOSING these women as mates. And because they are SOCIALIZING them to be this way. Who the fuck do you think owns all those makeup and clothing companies? A lot of them are MEN! It has nothing to do with hatred in that case and everything to do with money. It’s all some scheme to make more money! Just like Dove is coming out with the new commercials trying to “help women’s self-esteem.” They don’t give two flying fucks about women’s self-esteem. It’s all money. Otherwise, why is it only in Western cultures you see this phenomenon? You don’t see Chinese chicks being bitches because they are SOCIALIZED to be meek. Just like in Western cultures women are socialized to act a certain way to attract a mate.
All around the world, it is the desire to fuck women that keeps all these terrible things alive. It’s not just humans. It’s any male. Look at bed bugs, for example, when the competition got too high for mating they evolved structures to pierce a female’s abdomen with so that they can still father her eggs. All this shit about how women should be covered in robes and women shouldn’t act like cunts is because it ruins the complete control (and the chance for sex) that these men crave. Notice that even though they “hate” women, they are still fucking them. Still in relationships with them. They want to fuck, and the only way to do it is like the elephant seals. Through destroying the competition (other males), and dominating huge hordes of females.
And with 6 billion people and counting, I’m certainly not upset if people are having trouble finding mates. I think the vast majority of the problem with women is that they are not picky enough! I’m sick of women settling for losers like those posting above. It’s time for women to stop being bitches, stop being meek, and start being themselves. And if that includes being a bitch sometimes, then so be it. EVERYONE, yes including males, has times when they are just a jerk. As long as you haven’t pushed everyone in your life away, then there’s really no problem. Well, it would be preferable if all the jerks in the world weren’t jerks, but such is life. It’s called living. Deal with it.
And you know what, MEN need to start being more picky! If your girlfriend is a cunt, and you don’t like it, dump her. For fuck’s sake, just get a blow-up doll or something. You don’t need to be with someone you “hate” for sex! YOU choose to roll over. YOU choose to be with bitches.
reading this…well men do hate women. Too bad for you women can’t love you that way, no way. And don’t go wondering why the earth is in bad shape, if wars are still happening in so many places and the oceans are dying. It’s above men and women, it’s about evolution, it’s about love. But what do you care? men love guns and love that hate…kill, kill, kill. But here is the news boys, women are taking over the power. Women are wonderful and powerful, men are equally so only when they have controlled their lower nature and become spiritual. But society has taken away all the tools for people to do that. Look at tribes, all boys have to go through an initiation, and they don’t blame women for their inadequacy. Guys come on, be MEN. Strong, beautiful, fair and wild servant to our ancestors. Make a difference.
This is ridiculous. BOYS may hate women, MEN do not. Nobody automatically hates someone based on gender. They may recognize stereotypes and laugh a little, but no, most men, ESPECIALLY IN AMERICA, do not hate women.
This article could have been more well thought out. The fact of the matter is that men have oppressed women for thousands of years. Even though women out number men, women are still classified as “minorities”. And the reasons why? That’s a bit of a loaded question that we can’t be 100% sure of.
Men and women are almost opposites. We can’t begin to understand each other and why we sometimes do the things we do. It’s nearly pointless to try.As for equality, we’re as close as we’re going to get, in my opinion. Being somewhere in between equality and the more oppressive days of old has made for an odd mix in opinions of the way women should be treated. We’re confused.
I think some of the angry comments made by men here are unwarranted and reflect a definite distaste for the “modern woman”. What they fail to realize is that the “modern woman” is simply another gender role that some women have fallen into. It does NOT reflect the thoughts and behaviors of the majority.
I’m a woman and I do not expect anything I haven’t earned. I don’t expect men to find me attractive or shower me with anything. All I want from anyone is the same respect I treat them with.
I don’t believe men fear us or our sexuality. But I do believe that they have a lot of power (that we give to them, in some cases) over the roles and standards set for women. Like what was previously said about shaving. How is it that women “must” shave(almost our entire bodies) and most men don’t. Perhaps we don’t have to, but that is what most men want and women wish to attract mates.
Men and women both have standards that we are held to. I will not try to trivialize the struggles of men everywhere but when women are being sold, raped, married off against their will etc., we must acknowledge that there IS a problem there.
Many of the arguments I’ve read on here have been very persuasive and very good, but I feel as if something has been overlooked. For the most part men don’t hate women, and likewise women don’t hate men. Both genders just hate individual people and personalities. Gender makes little difference. Humans hate other humans. Whether one was born a male or female doesn’t matter. We’re all human, and so we’re going to hate one another. Blaming it on gender is just easy.
Someone upthread said that the happiest group of people other than married couples are single men. Perhaps single men are happy but I’d also like to point out that other studies put lesbians as the happiest group around. Also, married women are miserable, whereas divorced women are happy! Another statistic is that single women live longer than married women, but married men live longer than single men. I find that very interesting. I don’t think I’ll ever get marrried because it will mean shaving years off my life and handing it to some guy.
Im a man, my mother had no power over me, she was/is a warm caring mother from day one to year 39…I feared my father.
I’ve never made anyone wear a Bhurka or Chador. I’ve never forced anyone to have a clitorectomy, nor have I done an honor killing.
Grouping an entire gender into one narrow minded tirade only shows your hatred for men.
You don’t need us for sex or money. If you all become male homosexuals you can get over your fear and loathing as you don’t really need us at all. Just go have sex with other men. Lol.
