Generalizing is just lazy no matter how you slice whether it makes you miserable or happy.

I think you both are asking for a middle ground don't see everyone as one way and don't say everything is all your fault. That just makes all the sense.

More complicated than that. Men own the problems they bring to the table, but those problems are often exacerbated by women.

What's so bad about being vaginafied?

I wish I was "vaginafied" (meaning swarmed with such)

I agree.

I'm just saying, there's a nicer way to say it than pointing fingers and calling people whiners.

Maybe like you just said it. Bolded.
Sensitive much?


Being in a relationship requires thick skin...

Why do you think I stay out of relationships for now?

I was looking at the REASONS that guys blame women and trying to figure a way to get around that.

It's pretty obvious that a LOT more men whine here than women. There must be a reason and a way to internalize that to get around it.

It's also a bad idea to blame yourself for everything. You'll be working out, trying to get a better job, and buying hundreds of dollars in clothes to improve yourself for women. That's another discussion though.
Yeah, I went down that path myself. It's not healthy.

Just look at your part and work on what you can.

And don't give anymore of these conceited beyotches your time, they are not worth it. There are women out there that will appreciate you for who you are.
