I know a fat unemployed man who dumped a gorgeous woman because he didn't like her toes.

Very few men are willing to adopt. I know plenty of couples who are having trouble conceiving. The wives are all willing but none of the husbands are. Even when it's his sperm that's the problem.

I know everyone thinks Aleks was an asshole, but I disagree.

My life sucks by most people’s standards. I’m over forty, single, have no romantic prospects, only work occasionally, have no better job prospects, have no savings, and no real life friends. And yet I feel pretty fucking awesome. This just occurred to me today. I’ve spent a lot of my life fretting over the state of…

I’d want to be a really rich, fabulous lady in New York in the 1920s. Possibly a generation or two earlier, a la Edith Wharton.

Pretty much all the women I’m acquainted with had their first child after age 35. Many were close to or over forty. It wasn't necessarily what they'd planned, nor was it easy for all of them, but that's how it's been for them.

I once pushed a guy’s gym bag over a bit and sat on the other half of the seat. He threatened to kill me.

When men sit next to other men they clench their legs together, probably in part because touching men is “gay" but also because they respect men's space.

They don’t do it when sitting next to other men. They feel entitled to take up women’s space and to touch women they don’t know. It is rude, yes, but it's also more than that.

And most of whom have way bigger dicks, in my experience.

Team El Chapo.

But you expect us to be uncomfortable and miserable.

Rude is rude. Intent doesn’t matter.

It's not like it was mostly women who designed these seats either...

Except that when another man is seated next to you, you both clamp your legs together like you’re a Duggar kid and Josh is babysitting.

I got on the bus today and this dude was taking up two seats (sitting on the aisle and spreading into the window seat with his arm, leg and bag) while the bus was packed with people standing. He sat there smirking and nobody, including me, said anything.

She might technically be an adult, but she was also abandoned, grew up in the system, suffered from mental illness and recently reconnected with her father who got her drunk. Even if she consented, she really didn't.

Sounds like a nightmare. :/

I called him up to yell at him and, as I recall, after listening to me, he was like “I have to go, I’m at a movie”. If I’d known he was the kind of person who answers the phone at the movies, I certainly never would have liked him in the first place! Psychopath.

I'm going to do some googling and see if I can find this. I believe it. If you listen very carefully to the language people use when discussing women, yes, they absolutely do not see women as human in the way that they see men.
