No, let's NOT be politically correct.

At least 50% of these threads deal with generalizations. Why is it derogatory? Because it talks about a segment of the female population? How many men on here play the "gender card" when the thread complains about men? Not many.

Read my first post. Read about the experience on the train. I've had several like these in various places. My contribution to the situations: being a clean-cut guy in a suit, in almost all cases. Then go to the next page and read the other guy's experience on the Chicago EL.

Thank you. True. That "symmetry" seems to exist.

Wow the maturity level here blows my mind. Lets be big boys and girls and allow people with opposite opinions to state them.

As for one of the only "angry lesbian" episodes that I have ever seen in my life......the lesbian had just been raped at gun point in a park in Seattle.....that would make me angry at men too. There are reasons why people have anger.

Regardless of gender, religion, status, etc, I find generalizations are made when one's experiences are limited and one doesn't know any better.

Then they should channel it toward the person/people that created that anger and not displace it.

I'm sick of people displacing their anger. So stupid and destructive.
