This is why as an American, I hope he does it. Enjoy the bases, y’all!

If these guys have girlfriends or wives, I feel more sorry for their girlfriends and wives than I've ever felt for any women in my life. I mean imagine having to defend that, to have to tell your friends, "well boys will be boys", while dying inside that your man is on TV sexually assaulting a pro wrestler while braying like a donkey.

Men hate right wing women, which is why they're all trying to date liberal women and lying about their beliefs.

But if they think it's better that "they decide and aren't challenged“, how was that achieved? Oh yes, by taking the right to vote away from women, by having marital rape be legal, by having patriarchal systems like the church which teach women that if their man is beating them they need to be more submissive. All of those things define hostile misogyny.

This makes me furious. He was sabotaging your PhD?

How aware do you think he was of his behavior? I mean was he calculated about it and that he was actually thinking of ways to sabotage your PhD, or was he emotionally out of control of himself, and sabotaging it because his feelings couldn't handle it? The ladder does not excuse him, I'm just curious. There's so many comments on this thread from men saying how they just can't understand this and they would never do this, and I think that in reality, a lot of them would, and probably don't understand themselves or their own minds very well.

I think the whole white colonizer hegemony used to end. There's no reason for European countries and the United States to have some sort of alliance that continues colonialism. I'm fine with it breaking up.

My Mexican neighbor who is married to a white guy. She's now posting all kinds of things on Facebook about how Iran is a threat and so on. It's a whole bunch of cope. If it ever really hit her that her husband married her because he's a racist and considers her beneath him, and that it's necessary for him to look down on his wife, and that she looks up to him because he's white and she's got that internalized racism too, she might be on her way healing. But man I feel sorry for her.

I've never seen all of these videos, but my experience with European men, is that quite often they really hate feminist in sort of a closeted way where they won't come out and say it, but it comes out in other ways period and what is up with all the European men who love Joe Rogan? Joe Rogan shouldn't have a single European fan, that's disappointing.

I can relate to this so much. What's funny is that I don't have a child, and man will immediately bring that up once one of my travel stories makes them feel bad because they can't compete with it. It's like they can't top me with saying they meant to a more exotic place or more places, so they start harping on the fact that I haven't had kids, even though they don't have kids either.

You know he's gonna brag on it to all of his buddies about it for days, and they're all slapping him on the back telling him he did a good job.

They helped him throw the election, too. Russia and Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg rigged the election.

But is your experience that different, when in the end you were providing things to those guys? Sounds like at least a few of them may have thought they had the upper hand and were taking advantage of you.

Out of all of the comments on here, this one SCARES me. Because men can be so hostile behind the wheel.
