That is so depressing :(

1. My mom was a bitch.
Yep - I've been rejected several times as well. It's called being a fucking adult and getting over it. You're not the be-all end-all of your gender. You're not a god. You're just a human being who some people will be attracted to and some people won't be.
Then it's time to do some introspection and ask yourself the hard-hitting questions:
So I'm a big fan of taking care of your shit. I am 32, attractive, single, I date a lot but I've never been married. I could probably settle into I am unlovable or all men want size 0 thinking but I tend to go down the road of "Oh I haven't met the right person yet." When I did think I was loathesome, I probably drove…
What bloodofthematador said. To expound, a lot of these men have their self-esteem crushed when women they're attracted to don't return their attention. The men focus on how "nice" they are, and how horrible it is to be friendzoned by the woman who looks like a centrefold. What they don't get is that they're probably…
It's not even that— I've seen men "irresistably drawn" to women that are not conventionally attractive. The scary part of the attraction is that they feel like their obsession must be mutual and reciprocated, or that they can at least make it so. It can become exceedingly dangerous for the target, because his view of…
lol-yeaaaahhhhhh
Right, people who think they are entitled to anyone or anything suck. Men just seem to be the ones totally in my face about it all the time. Do body positive women troll males spaces calling men assholes for not wanting them. Do they send you creepy OKCupid messages complaining about how no man wants a good girl like…
Quite a few women have internalized misogyny of their own. It's been shoved into our heads that we're automatically "less" than men, and many of us believe it. Some of us accept crappy behavior and misogyny from men and we accept it from each other as well.
RIGHT?
I'm guessing he's interpreting "patriarchy hurts men too" as "men deserve to die raaaarrrgh!" Because what I *have* seen pointed out to men raging about women not being drafted/in combat is that it's not WOMEN who had control of the armed forces and the government...it was men who held the power in those situations…
I hate to admit it, but when I was much younger I felt that way. I mean, I never came right out with the thought that "I should be able to fuck anyone I want", but the gist of it was there. When I was single I was generally mopey about how the girls I was most attracted to always went for guys I perceived to be…
Every time I've heard a guy whine about being repeatedly rejected by women he's "irresistably drawn to," it's a case of an unattractive dude who insists on chasing model-attractive women. And he makes being "irresistably drawn" to them out to be some big existential thing instead of just, you know, the fact that…
It's probably the result of a long cultural history of women being objectified and presented as prizes or goals to men, and the cultural residue of woman-as-property. There are a ton of articles about how various types of media portray women as rewards men are supposed to get just for waking up every day, so when…
They genuinely believe they are entitled to you - to fuck you, to fuck with you, to possess you. Not operating by their rules is an affront to them.
And sometimes they don't do what you want them to do even though you asked really nicely. That kind of rejection hurts.
You know what's really scary? YOU CAME OUT OF ONE OF THOSE. YOU CAME OUT OF YOUR MOTHER'S VAGINA. FEAR. FEEEEEEAR!
its just cuz women are scary, guys. You've got weird different parts, how am i supposed to understand that
