Why just misogynists?

Didn't you know misandrists "don't exist"? Spell check won't even acknowledge the word.

sorry, disagree. Work is not a place to date, it's to work... putting your income source in jeopardy by trying to court women there is absolutely foolish given strict workplace rules...all a woman has to do is claim sexual harassment and you could lose your job.

Most people dating online are out of school so that's irrelevant.

Social connections at an older age (30s) usually do not involve too many single people, most in that age group are either married or coupled. Generally speaking many people have a pretty static social circle so it's not like tens of new singles are coming in and out of that circle on a regular basis, so it's not very effective.

The major opportunity is in college...once that passes the conventional ways can be difficult.

Sorry I meant misandrists, not misanthropists. That's what I get for doing 5 things at once.

Oh it exists.
What's even more baffling is when you see men who are misandrists, and women who are misogynists. Not a lot of that going on around here though from what I've noticed. I think it's better that way.

on internet the woman is definitely in the drivers seat. why? bek we guys are driven by hormones.
there are countless women, morbidly obese, putting up fake pics to get some male attention. its the only male love and attention they have ever gotten. have a heart let them play the game. did i ever tell you about my blond cutie that i flew to nashville to meet?
(im on the coast) there she was ----quasimoto.
now angry women will say mean things about my post. guess what game they have been playing?

Wow. Are you serious?!
Did she show you fake pics or something?
I've heard stories like this from guys before. I didn't believe it at first but I hear it often enough now that I'm starting to think it must be true.
How many ladies have you met who have done this is my question?

When I did online dating a while ago, a guy once told me this happened to him (I didn't believe him though) but I ended up confused because he looked much worse in person than his picture....had a very old picture up and he had gained weight.

That's raunchy right there.

Unlike me, who fills the room with amazing bodywash and axe shampoo aroma.
