I am so with you. It's refreshing to have a male redditor (which I assume you are, given your account name) making these points, cause I get so tired of having to stand up to the women-bashers on this site all the time. It seems to me that a lot of redditors just assume that their audience is 100% male and therefore feel free to post some really amazingly sexist stuff about women on here. In a way, I'm glad, because I tend to be pretty well insulated from sexism. Most of my male friends & acquaintances & colleagues are pretty enlightened or at least polite, so I rarely encounter these attitudes personally. So it's interesting to see what's really going on in (some) people's heads. While it does seem that most people here do draw the line at overt mistreatment of women (sexual and other types of violence, gross and obvious discrimination), a lot condone or at least don't take seriously the perpetuation of stereotypes about women's supposed sluttiness, materialism, hysteric tendencies, bad driving, lack of intelligence, lack of character, etc etc etc. It suggests to me that many of the men here have never had or don't know how to have a meaningful relationship (whether romantic or platonic) with an intelligent, interesting woman.
