This should be number 1

So genuine question. Do men want to get flowers? I don't personally much like flowers and plenty are insanely toxic to my fur babies but I wonder if there are men who would like to get them and don't because of the same gender stereotypes that cause people to give me "girlie" things

I never realized how big a thing this was until I saw guys go from the stall straight out the door. Freaking gross.

This adolescent misconception of masculinity usually gets corrected by an older male who tunes them up without really physically damaging them. The pendulum swings back to the middle.

Wish all men were like you. Fortunately most men are, we just sadly hear more about the bad ones.

EXACTLY! I see this constantly. Always ready to go after a woman, even if she's with a friend and go bat sh*t crazy if they get the same treatment.

Women in here get murdered, seeded and thrown Acid on face for the word "No"

You must live in Oak Cliff. We have the trifecta of macho bullshit here: drag racing, revving engines and shooting guns in the air every time you lose your hard on.

gross

sociopath

Hes doing that to look Cool for you while being sensitive to them

This is seriously disturbing.

It sounds as if he might have been the spoiled only son who was given free rein to be an asshole. I know two guys whose little sister can put them in their place if they bug her. Their parents are totally fine with her standing up for herself. She'd probably verbally kick this idiot's balls and say, "Having two older brothers gave me insight into their weaknesses. NOW who's the dumb bitch??"

psychopath

I would hear my husband's boss (also his best friend) making lewd comments and vulgar jokes....but then he'd clean up his language when I was around. I asked him why he did that. He said his father told him that you act like a gentleman in front of a lady. Both me and my husband laughed. My husband said "She cusses more than you do." To that I added..."I grew up with two brothers that were totally into MAD magazine and Monty Python. My mother cusses like a sailor on the regular. Nothing you say will offend me." After that, the dirty jokes went flying!

JERK

I knew a guy with a long term gf and 3 grown daughters who used to cheat on his gf. I once asked if he'd like his daughters to be treated the same way. He didn't answer.

Ugh

and you said what to him? you can't be an ally if you just tweet about it. you have to say it to him he's being an ass.

Everyone acts different when certain people are around. All this man bashing on this site is getting bloody old and sad

Nah dude, you got to call them out...that's the only way it'll stop.

I read an article addressing the myth that men "just don't see" the mess. They see it - they just don't *care*, and this is because in society men are held to a lower standard of expectation. The article cited a study where participants were shown an untidy room; if they were told it belonged to a male student, they thought it was mostly fine. If it belonged to a female student it was judged more harshly. This was more pronounced when the participants were male too (female participants judged the male messy room negatively, but were only a bit more harsh with the female messy room)

Ask yourself the question, (1) Did she ask for a d**k pick? If the answer is no, then DON"T SEND IT. You might say, but denzo, I'm well endowed and she needs to know! Then revert to question (1), No? then DON'T SEND IT. You might also say, but denzo, she looks like she'll like it. Then revert to question (1), No? then DON'T SEND IT. If the answer to question (1) was yes, then by all means, make it a production. This has been my guide to d**k pics.

This one is really fun. My gay brother is into arms, he collect knives, crossbows, katanas, swords and is pretty manly, he's into strong beers and not pink daiquiri. Any man wanting a pink daiquiri should have it, without beeing mocked. Macho bullshït indeed.

I read an article somewhere, about a woman who was transgender and she said that when she was a man, she used to "man-guess" or whatever she called it, whenever she didn't know an answer. It was more important to come off as competent than to actually be competent - or to be honest. (That was in relation to her experiences of being a boss as both a man and later as a woman.)

This goes both ways too. I've had younger trainees who just wasn't open to learning. I've also had research supervisors who refused to impart knowledge because for them all you are is another person trying to replace them.

Toxic fandom?

Upvote for using the word "peacock." As a person who's been within feet of an actual peacock prancing for some hens, this is a perfect description!

Ive been at parties back in the early 2000s when I was 19 and a hockey jock was trying to get with a wasted girl who was a friend of a friend. Im in shape but I dont like fighting people, I just stood in front of him and discouraged him from thinking he was able to do anything with her just because he gave her a ride once. I saved her from assault and I just went back to crowd control and didnt see her again for two weeks when she thanked me for it and then never saw her again.

The only cake I eat is made with concrete and whiskey! Absurd. Lol

And in the end, they are the leader of their group... A group of one.

It really depends on how it is done

Two of my “friends” decided one day that they had to “confront” me about my sexuality. It all boils down to their insecurities, the fact that I didn’t talk about or treat women as sex objects like they did, and hadn’t had a girlfriend (which I desperately wanted, but was timid, shy, and stuck on an infatuation with someone I would never ask out on a date). Neither of these guys are in my life anymore and I wish I had dropped them back then instead of waiting years more.

I tell you what though...if you're a girl and you know a thing or two about cars, color those same manly men as shocked. I know a lot about cars and my sister has rarely had to have a mechanic fix her cars. She even dropped an engine into her 71 Duster and put the transmission in on her own.

My father-in-law, used to embarrass the crap out of me with that stuff. He used to always say " I gave her my most engaging smile" then tell the family something he said that was SO inappropriate, sexist, rude, ugly.... Usually said to a nurse, as he was always going to the doctor for some ailment. Also, the innuendo comments usually accompanied with a wink. Disgusting man.

They think the "alpha male" is a real thing, and they want to be agressive and assertive so tenths of women fall for them. Dude, it does not work. Being a bad boy has never been attractive.
