Guy Says He’s Sick Of Women Complimenting Each Other, Prompts Them To Fill His Thread With Compliments

ADVERTISEMENT

Social media is known for its ability to make some people feel insecure and ruin their confidence. And not only because many of us don’t feel good enough when we scroll through the airbrushed galleries of the people we follow. It’s also because there are many people who tear each other down with unnecessary rude and hurtful comments.

Last year a man named Lewis expressed his opinion about women complimenting to each other on Instagram

Luckily, there are still people who lift up each other’s spirits by being able to simply be nice.

Women who completely disagree with his opinion found a wholesome way to shut him down

It’s hard to deny how heartwarming it is to see strangers complimenting each other instead of trashing one another on social media. But it turns out, not everyone is a fan of that.

Last year, a man named Lewis voiced his unpopular opinion on women giving compliments to each other on Instagram. Apparently, it makes Lewis sick to see women bring each other up because to him, complimenting strangers is somehow synonymous to being immature.

Well, Lewis had no idea what was coming to him as he posted the tweet. As it comes with no surprise, women don’t agree with him at all.

In fact, they don’t agree with him so much, that instead of ‘growing up’, they turned his tweet into compliments galore.

One after another, women praised each other for their radiant skin, excellent makeup skills, amazing profile pictures, and talents.

We can only guess how infuriated Lewis must have felt as it must have been awful for him to see all these strangers complimenting each other.

I compliment women online and in person all the time - I think most people don't know how awesome they are. I would (and sometimes do) compliment men but then I risk them thinking I'm hitting on them. I wish more people understood - I don't want anything from them, sometimes a compliment is just a compliment.

Exactly!! A compliment is just a compliment.

Compliments out of nowhere can have the opposite effect on someone who actually has a low self esteem, though. Sounds fake and forced at best, and at worst like they thought you really needed a compliment because it's clear that you're failing everything, or like they're internally actually laughing at you for believing it. It's not rational, it's how the negative brain rewires things to make you continue to think you're the worst.

And vice versa. As a man I can't say anything nice to a girl or else she either gets that "Okay, now how do I play this because I'm looking" or "Oh no, how do I get out of this because I don't want to be hit on".

I think his comment was out of jealousy. Women compliment each other all the time, men don't. Maybe he's feeling a little left out....

Maybe it would have been better if they complimented him so he could feel that getting a compliment from a stranger is actually a nice thing.

Oh and another thing. When you see women who DO tear other women down, it’s only because society is very misogynistic and teaches both women and men to hate other women. We are brainwashed into thinking like that, but fortunately most women know better than that.

The world is just a better place when people are happy and complimenting each other. I try to spread the love, if I see someone wearing an awesome top I say something. I even compliment men, especially if they have a great car.

Bored Panda, you could do without the misogynistic stereotypes in your opening paragraph. Yes SOME women tear other women down, but guess what? Men do the same thing to each other. It’s not a gender based thing. Mean spirited people are EVERYWHERE. But fortunately there are MORE women who will gladly stick up for other women when we can.

He's having a sad. No one is complimenting him. He doesn't realize that he could start a trend among men.

His comment is oddly gender-specific. How does he feel about guys complimenting each other? And if he approves of that, why?

I rarely see guys complimenting each other. I think some are afraid the other guy will think they're hitting on them. Maybe they should start.

I'm a female and I actually sort of agree with him (a bit). It gets annoying when girls comment on each other's posts with dumb things like "ANGEL *heart face*" or "why are you so HOT" or "date me sis". I mean they are more like attention compliments and they are often fake. When girls don't get the number of comments they want, their confidence goes down. Instagram can hide the likes but all the fake comments will still be visible

Incels need a world in which women tear each other down in order to bring them low enough to seek the incel's approval for validation. The confidence grown from building each other up makes their approval unnecessary, which (to the incel) invalidates their whole existence.

Being kind takes just about zero effort. I love seeing people compliment each other, regardless of gender. Women especially, though, and sometimes an uplifting comment from a stranger can be a very powerful thing. Don't listen to dolts like this guy; apparently he's a bit butt-hurt from not getting this same type of attention...

If i see a beautiful womans pic im gonna like and comment. These days so many people are jealous, mean and coldhearted. I would rather uplift another person than to drag them down. Lewis should shut the f**k up and have a seat. All the people we know now were strangers at one point so his logic is bs. 🤦🤷
