"Finally, you're attracted to an attractive woman, but she's not allowed to be attracted to attractive men? GFY."

I don't think anyone is saying that girls shouldn't be told they're pretty. I actually remember getting through some pretty tough awkward years with a modicum of self-esteem, in part, because when I was a younger kid my parents would tell me that I was pretty. Not too often, but just enough that I was able to have a…

I am so sad this happened, but this girl is awesome for making a scene and standing up for herself. I'm twice her age, and I'm not positive I could assert myself like that in such a creepy situation.

You know what I wish had a negative correlation with long, sustained relationships? Lots of public statuses/comments about how amazing/lovely their spouse/boyfriend/girlfriend is. Good, GOD, I have some dear friends who don't go a day without a very public announcement about how great their relationship is. I like…

Yes we get it, you like men, especially the sporty hot ones. And everything to do with jock culture is wonderful and awesome and fun. I am glad you have never had a negative experience with this culture, and hope you continue to enjoy it to the fullest, as jock culture and sports in general are a wonderful part of…

Okay, what about all the nice girls in middle/high school? Ones who don't really know how to get guys to be interested in them, maybe haven't filled out quite as much as their peers, shy. Now they are grown, successful women and men are interested. Are these types of women entitled to the same leeway you're giving…

Now it feels like you are pretty much trolling. I want my 5 minutes of reading this conversation back. The fact you defend a highly problematic subculture (which, by the way, has a serious rape problem) under the defense of "well, there is rape every other subculture else so we shouldn't bother breaking it down or…

But doesn't this resentment stem from the idea that they have a right to have sex with women? Everyone told me to be a nice guy and I was, but no one gave me any? What about me? No one has a right to have sex with anyone. I'm not saying these feelings aren't legitimate or that there isn't real pain here. Just that…

Well, is it possible that you were just as much of a jerk as the other guys, but they were openly and sincerely jerks, while you were 'being the nice guy'? This is what this whole friendzone complaint is about. Men who are not really nice, pretending to be so, only to attractive girls and only to manipulate them. A…

"They've lost respect for women because they feel they never got any from them. "

See, if the only reason a guy has for respecting women is that she sleeps with him, then he's a shitty person and a misogynist. I'm so over this idea that only men have to deal with rejection or sexual urges or whatever. No, in fact women…

I saw it that he felt entitled to put his hands on my body for no other reason than that I agreed to grab an after-work drink with him. He missed that day in pre-school when they taught you to keep your hands to yourself.

You're just an internet person, but you ruined my day so completely. I can't even explain it to you really. You'd have to break out of a lifetime of man-worshipping indoctrination first.

Let me guess, you were the girl who wore the "Matt 1/Daisy 0" t-shirt?

Oh please, no one here is saying that all athletes are evil, or even that most are. I think we are seeing a number of rape cover-ups by schools administrators and its causing alarm and a need to examine whats going on here. Anecdotally, I lost my virginity to a high school quarterback, and he was perfectly lovely and…

If that were true, wouldn't it be the other way around and we would be hearing about male athletes getting constantly sexual assaulted by women?

Me. Athletes are... Usually shallow and often stupid (with exceptions of course,) and the higher up you get in professional athletics (particularly the very popular team sports,) the more likely this is.

I know plenty who wouldn't, and the pervasive belief that every single woman wants to have sex with athletes is part of the problem.

Yeah, you aren't speaking for all the red-blooded hetero ladies on this one. Not everyone cares about how many balls were put into the thing for points, or the guy helping to put them in there.

Plenty of us. Sexual attraction is pretty individual, and hot jocks aren't every girl's thing.

Sure, but that's for the woman to decide, not for the man to demand. My husband likes to be thanked for doing the dishes, but he doesn't rape me if I don't.
