Relationships in particular. Things are drilled into our minds from the time we were kids about relationships. "You need to do this by a certain age, you need do that in order to get a guy to like you, you have to look this way, ect., ect."
I am actually still trying to "unlearn" these things I was "taught" about relationships.
I used to think a crazy bi###, was a woman, who would scream in an argument....back in the day, when I didn't want to really deal with an issue, I would try to maintain a civilized environment, by talking in a calm voice, whenever I had a yelling female arguing with me. I knew that the demeanor would push buttons, but they were the crazy ones, because they would yell so loudly, the kind of frustrating yelling that neighbors can hear. As I got older, I realized that my passive aggressive behavior, was manipulative. Refusing to discuss some issue they had, by turning my back and ignoring them. All passive aggressive behavior. This is something I worked hard on, and have made a positive change about 10 years ago. I actually am friends with a few of those women, and 10 years ago, I reached out and apologized for my behavior....they all dropped their jaws in disbelief..lol
Whenever you do those things to a woman who is mad, you are telling them to ****, that they aren't important, and you dont care what they have to say...it's a big FU, so how else are they going to get your attention? You pressed all the buttons for detonation.... At least in my experiences the crazy women, were made that way because of my actions....I'm betting that's the case with many who have been called crazy.
I wonder how many women here have actually heard those words applied to themselves or other women. I never have. Some of this stuff is Jerry Springer Show material. And I didn't think the word "crazy" was gender-specific. It can apply to men, too. But usually only to bona fide mentally ill men or the guy in the news who murdered his wife, or whatever.

I'm wondering the same thing. Ive label a few women crazy, but never have voiced it in their presence.
Well, I did call a couple women on here crazy, Lol

This was my thing too. Unless we're fighting or something, I'm not going to label a woman crazy to her face, but I'll definitely think it. And sure, it can come in both male and female flavors, but "traditional" crazy is more the female domain, in my experience. By "traditional" crazy, I mean the kind of crazy that isn't against the law...generally speaking.
As a friend of mine puts it: women are crazy, men are stupid. Sure, both genders can be both, but I think the aforementioned takes the lion's share.
The article is not about how women act. It's a man writing about something he figured out about himself, how he was holding himself back.
