We were very curious to learn about the inspiration behind the question on r/AskWomen, and the author of the thread was kind enough to tell us all about it.

"The thing that first brought up the question is a discussion I had with my partner over different experiences the opposite sex seems to be entirely unaware of," she shared.

"They were reading a post about how one man was uncomfortable with a woman applying a little makeup in an all-gendered bathroom to the point that he was avoiding that bathroom. It really showed me how out of touch a lot of people are with what most women go through on a daily basis," the OP explained to Bored Panda, adding that she also posed the same question on r/AskMen and thought that it was "a really solid comparison side by side."

50 Times Men Were Completely Unaware Of The Female Experience While on vacation with my SO, I commented on how f****d up it is that I automatically brace myself anytime a man walks behind me while we were drinking at a bar. He honestly didn't know what I meant, and so I told him about all the times someone had treated my body as a free-for-all when I was out. It kind of shocked me that he wasn't aware of this, as he had worked security for bars for years.

A couple of years later he came home from work one night and told me he'd spotted a guy grabbing a woman's a*s in passing. He promptly took the guy outside, gave him a lecture and refused to let him back in. Later on he was relaying this to a bouncer at another bar, the same guy comes up with his friends, and my SO promptly refused him access to that bar as well.

50 Times Men Were Completely Unaware Of The Female Experience My 50 y/o male co-worker invited me (31F) to attend a salsa party with him.

I told him that I generally don’t go to places with a lot of men under the influence of alcohol without my fiancée because I don’t want to be dr*gged or SA’d.
He then asked me how I could be so arrogant to assume random men would be so interested in me that they’d go to these lengths to get with me.

When I responded: ‘I’ve had that happen to me more than once and I don’t want to go through that again’, he started asking me invasive questions about the incidents to determine if HE’d consider the things that happened to me assault.

I hit back with the most graphic trauma-dump of what happened to me and made him so uncomfortable that he had to step out for a bit.

He did end up apologizing for his behavior and we now just generally ignore each other.

Meanwhile, we were interested in getting the Reddit user's take as to why so many guys seem to have a very warped understanding of the female experience.

"I think men have plenty of misconceptions about women because unless you go through the biological changes and experience the culture around women, it’s truly impossible to understand," u/astandre1 said.

"There’s so much that goes on and there’s so much more depth behind each action and perspective than what most men assume."

Meanwhile, the redditor shared her thoughts on what guys could do if they're feeling shy or embarrassed to learn more about women's issues.

"The easiest way for a lot of men to learn is strictly by asking. If you’re too shy to ask, then dive deeper into some posts by women and read through the comments. Do NOT rely on the info in male-dominated subreddits," Reddit user u/astandre1 suggested.

"Women are very complex creatures and one size does not fit all, but many women are very open about their experiences and they often appreciate when others try to be respectful and understanding of their experience."

Him: “Are you leaving your purse in the car or something?”
Me: “No…I lock them so I don’t have to worry about some guy slipping into the backseat and hiding while I’m gone.”

This isn’t to say that all guys are ignorant or that only men can have these sorts of misconceptions about important but basic questions. There are plenty of well-educated, supportive men out there. And gender has nothing to do with a person’s unwillingness to educate themselves and be more empathetic.

However, this doesn’t change the fact that there are many issues that plague women in the world today. And guys getting better education about female anatomy and women’s issues could be the first step toward solving these problems. Living in a bubble of ignorance is no way to go through life.

The United Nations notes that one in three women will experience violence in their lifetime. However, since the Covid-19 pandemic, violence, especially domestic violence, has intensified.

“At home, survivors of domestic violence may be trapped with their abuser, with limited access to support services, healthcare and justice systems. And in public, women are at heightened risks of violence navigating deserted public spaces and transportation,” UN Women explains.

Another glaring issue is the gender pay gap. One area where it’s especially prominent is the health workforce, standing at around 28 percent. The UN points out that once occupation and working hours are accounted for, the gender pay gap is around 11 percent.

In some parts of the world, women and girls also have less access to education and technology. Meanwhile, in many places, even working women are still expected to do the lion’s share of the housework and childcare. Not only that, they have to deal with period poverty and stigma.

“In some parts of the world, they are seen as dirty, untouchable, or a disgrace. Whether it’s a lack of money to buy pads, tampons, or other products, access to toilets, or discriminatory laws and practices, women and girls, especially the world’s poorest, are deeply impacted by their periods,” the UN explains.

My nephew (8) once pointed out a few dark hairs on my top lip and made a disgusted face and shouted something about how disgusting it is and that girls should only have hair on their head. When he said 'my mum doesn't have hair on her face or body', his 10yr old brother didn't even look up from his tablet just said "mum shaves all her hair off." The youngest brother looked stunned, thought for a few minutes then said "I wonder why she does that?" Needless to say he learned a lot about the patriarchy that day. I still can't believe he genuinely thought women were naturally hairless.

Fun fact: the reason people think body hair on women is “unhygienic” is because in the early 1900s, razor companies decided that they weren’t making enough money and wanted to sell to women. They pushed the idea that hair on women is uNhYgIeNiC to sell s**t.

When I was 19 I worked in a Frozen Yogurt shop and a rush of young kids would come in everyday after school and it was absolute pandemonium. One of these afternoons I was ringing up an older guy (maybe 70's) and he said "It's a good thing you're a woman. You're more equipped for this kind of thing than a man. Your natural instincts make it easy." I just looked at him and said "That's not really how it works. Have a nice day."

I suppose this depends a bit on where you live. In the past, I opted for taxis instead of public transit after a guy on the tram started following me one night.

Back when I was dating my husband, we were talking about timing for having kids. He mentioned that he wanted to wait a certain length of time before having kids. I explained that, with the number of kids we were interested in having (4 or 5), the age I was going to be when we were likely to get married, and when I would start becoming less fertile, that timeline wouldn't work. He'd always thought about the timing of having kids in terms of when he wanted them, and never thought about how he would be limited by his partner's biological clock. (To be fair, he was raised in religious all-boys boarding schools for a good portion of his life, and this is the kind of thing that literally never came up. I don't blame him for not thinking of everything on his own, and he's done a good job of catching up.)

To add context, I'm a trans woman who still dresses like a dude most the time.

For a while now, I've had both male friends and my boyfriend trying to convince me to "dress more feminine" and to "just be myself." They don't understand that I pretend to be a guy for safety reasons, because so much as a feminine jacket can be enough to move me over into female territory as far as strangers are concerned. The worst experience I've had was someone trying to kidnap me (thankfully in a stupidly ineffective way), but if I'm wearing baggy guy clothes, I can throw my voice deep enough to convince people I'm just a feminine guy.

Think my boyfriend is starting to get it, but said male friends do not.

So a couple years ago my SO told me he didn't want more kids (I don't have any, he does) and the next morning I was server for a baby shower at work. It was obviously kind of a rough morning and my boss genuinely tried to comfort me with the insistence that: 1. Men never really mean that kind of thing, they can always be convinced and 2. It wouldn't be all that hard for me to be a mom and have the life I want.

I want (and do) own a distillery now. I want (eventually) to take months in the summer to backpack through Europe learing more about distillation. He genuinely didn't see how being a mother would impact any of that.

He said no, of course not, to all of these and I pointed out that all this things are the reality in non feminist countries and were the reality in North America until the women's rights movements.

And these are all examples of why I get so disgusted with dudes who get all 'that's not fair!' about 'special rules' for women. One guy recently, just could **NOT** understand that the only reason there are special rules at work is because they're required so that they can simply do the same things that guys don't even think about.... like.. speaking in a meeting - the 'special rule' is that everyone MUST be quiet and listen. Why is there no rules for the guys? Because the guys don't regularly get cut off, interrupted and/or dismissed. They don't even have to THINK that this is a thing that will happen. It is *automatic* that people are quiet and listen when they speak. The guy had no comment about whether he'd even bothered to notice that women were never allowed a say.

The suprise Pikachu face he had on when I told him that I was sexually assaulted in the debate world multiple times was glorious. And note that we are a small community, he knew there's no way he didn't personally meet the attacker. He was very quiet afterward, I think it actually had an impact.

I have a good friend from college. He's a kind, smart, gentle giant. One time, a seemingly aggressive group started banging at my door. There was a van full of people with bats. I didn't answer and instead waited fifteen minutes for them to leave. I told my friend up the street what had happened and he popped over to check on me. He was BAFFLED that I didn't just answer the door. Another time I came out of the clinic spooked about a man acting aggressive towards me (my friend had driven me) and he didn't understand why I didn't just act aggressive back. That time the lightbulb came on and he goes...ooohhh...I just realized these experiences are different for you than me. Yes, Matt, you're six and a half feet tall and roughly the size of a door. It's different for most women.

Just once I want to see a post titled "50 Times Women Were Completely Unaware Of The male Experience". Just some equality would be great.

I have a feeling this post was commented by women, hating men. I (female, straight and not unattractive) feel safer working in a group of men than with backstabbing women. And I rather have a man walking me through a shady neighborhood than a female friend on high heels and a shirt skirt. I have been harrassed and bullied by more women than men. Please stop generalizing. It is a very tiny minority of vicious humans, a mix of all genders. I guess I have obviously been living in a different world, since of all people I met in the past 50 years, 99.99% were all of fine characters! Thank you, humans! 🙏🏻❤️

It is literally a man it says this at the bottom of the list. Also It isn't saying all men or most men(which it is by the way) it is saying enough men and yeah we are living in different worlds. I have been harassed since I was 10 by men old enough to pass for my grandfather. Just because you do not experience it doesn't mean that it isn't real.

Well apparently having been a victim of crime has turned you into a hateful human being. You want people to live? How about taking your judgemental and vile attitudes and crawling back under your rock?

Not only previous sexual partners but a previous sexual history with the douche is apparently consent for all the future sex HE wants with you.

I once explained to my husband why lots of women walk with holding handbag on the opposite side of curb, with keys in other hand, ready to be attacked. He got very emotional.

Even better, refuse to have sex with him until he can be a more mature and caring partner.
