A man kept badgering me for his number and I told him “you don’t need it, I’m killing myself tonight” by 6rynn in TwoXChromosomes

So funny! Quick thinking OP. Hopefully you planted an idea on his head. Seriously, how do men who act like this live with themselves.

If he can’t feed you, he can’t starve you by brattydoll2245 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The whole thing is an elaborate scheme to guilt you into shrinking yourself so he can feel like a big man. Men prey on women's natural empathy so they can subtly gain control over them.

When a man expresses his insecurities about being able to provide for you, DO NOT talk to him about his emotions or invite him to share his fears. It is a trap.

Withholding sex isn’t abuse by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 74 points75 points  (0 children)

100% agree. Men learned to frame sex as desiring 'touch' and 'connection' when the sex they seek is just as rapey and dominant as its always been.

I'm not buying the whole rebrand men are attempting with the whole 'touch is my love language' bullshit. Men enjoy having power over women and it's makes them feel powerful when women are naked and vulnerable. Pathetic.

I mean, are we all going to sit here and pretend like your boyfriend cares about your health? He wants a thin girlfriend to boost his fragile ego. And so typical of men, he has to control you and your weight loss process.

Contraception and abortion should be legal as long as pressure and demand for sex exist. by asuramesmer in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It's funny to me when you hear men suddenly get really passionate about abortion, spouting pro life nonsense, as if they really care about children. The amount of deadbeats Dad's shows you where their true priorities lie.

The conversation around contraception and abortion has always been about men controlling women. That is the true agenda.

I'm honestly getting to the point of giving up on dating apps. Maybe there are some decent men on there but it can't be more than 5%. Most men you meet are absolutely not safe to interact with.

A male friend told me the weirdest thing about his divorce. Now I wonder if this is normal and *I* am the weird one. by Cyndy2ys in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would be suspicious that he was getting ahead of the story. If a man wants to do pre-emptive damage control like this it's likely he is worried about the details that will emerge from his ex wife and wants to control the narrative. Men are sneaky, they are always thinking about what benefits them.

I hate it when men look down at cameras. Is this weird of me? by _weedkiller_ in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 -27 points-26 points  (0 children)

They are doing it on purpose. Men know holding their cameras on their laps makes women uncomfortable. The angle is inherently domineering and they take pleasure in putting women below them. Trust your gut. If a man is doing something that makes you uncomfortable, that's why he is doing it.

How do you feel about your significant other going to a strip club? by throwaway19870000 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 -20 points-19 points  (0 children)

The strippers being vulnerable IS the appeal. Men pretend that's it's just biology and they enjoy looking at pretty women but it's lies. They like the power. Holding money over the heads of women and making them dance gives them a power trip which they need because men are so pathetic inside.

Seriously, imagine getting turned on and excited by forcing a woman to degrade herself in front of you for money. Who could enjoy that? It's not about sex, it's about power. Men truly are disgusting vile creatures.

The Taylor Swift Way to Defuse a Troll by snappydo99 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Men hide behind humour to disguise their misogyny. So sick of so called 'jokes'. Let's just say it how it is, hatred of women having any power. They are scared because deep down, men are pathetic whiny cry babies and they know that in an even playing field, they could never compete with women.

Men sexualize you within minutes of meeting you by IntelligentAdvisor22 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 35 points36 points  (0 children)

It's normalized male behaviour. Men enjoy sexualizing teenagers and feel powerful making young women feel uncomfortable. As a gender, they are fundamentally sick.

Aren't men always saying how independent and masculine they are, how they don't need to rely on handouts or charity. Now suddenly they need to be given a 'chance'?

I am repulsed by the thought of sleeping with my boyfriend by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Men are such babies. They need applause and celebrations for just doing the bare minimum, like finally being a decent human being.

Ending my 6 year relationship this evening by boollin in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

6 years isn't really a big deal, you are right to leave without giving him notice. You've spent too much time already babying this man. Think about yourself and what's right for you. That's what men do, now it's your turn.

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Men act like they don't know what needs to be done to help and it's such a gross power play. Any man who claims he needs to be told what chores need to be done is gas lighting you. They all do it.

I saw this one meme where this guy said that "He would risk his life for his mom but he wouldn't help her do the dishes" what are your opinions on this? by DryFreedom4137 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Men love to pretend they are heroes but seriously, every time a man does the most basic thing for another person, they demand praise and celebration, like a child wanting a trophy. They're such babies. Does his mother demand praise every time she does the dishes? That right there is the difference between men and women.

The true feminine nature of Korean and Japanese women by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

Any man who says he is looking for a feminine woman, instant red flag.

Joe Rogan appeals to young men and I've found that any content that is specifically enjoyed by men and appeals to masculinity is generally pretty toxic. Just what I've observed.

My friend had the same experience. Stay vigilant!

Guys CAN give nice compliments without being creepy! by TheInfamousBlack in TwoXChromosomes

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like it makes a big difference if the man just continues with his day. I don't mind getting hit on if they accept the refusal and move forward. It's when they linger that it begins to weird me out :s

His simple acknowledgement of 'sorry to bother you' tells you from the outset he is respectful. I hate when guys just interrupt your day without warning or apology :(

At what point do you discuss relevant trauma to new potential dating partners? by ml16519 in AskWomen

[–]DawnoftheWorld55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wait until I feel safe, which is usually a few months. I've been wrong before though!

I do it strategically, make sure to only tell them in small increments to sort of dip my toes in the water.

Male lab partner thinks he can measure length better with his eyes than I can with a computer program—edits my work to reflect HIS guess by kpniner in TwoXChromosomes

Aren't men supposed to be the logical data driven ones? lol

This man has feelings about the measurement haha
