Man-hating posts vs. woman-hating posts

Post Reply New Topic

Well you DID start a thread about your little pecker.

I know you're joking though unless you really do whip it out on first meeting!

^^ That remark reminded me of the scene in Blazing Saddles where Bart, upon becoming the new sheriff, said "Excuse me while I whip this out".

It's because men are like white people. It's okay to hate on them because they have been as*holes in the past.

Also it's Pauly Shore's fault. He alone is enough of a reason to hate white people or men.

Collective gasp from the townfolk!

One of my favorite moments in cinema!

That's kind of a moot point as you can say that about any group. The Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and used children as human shields in World War II. Egyptians owned countless slaves and probably worked them to death. The Jews slaughtered thousands of people for worshipping the wrong gods. The only reason whites are more well-known for evil acts is that they had the Industrial Revolution, which put them at an advantage over other races, making it easier to oppress them.

To those wondering about the men's site, it's back to working now. There was a small issue with the hosting space, that's all.

I don't know about misogynist but here are some things you have said, from the other post, which may have caused others to call you such a thing...



They actually rarely talk about men in the women's section and I can't help but to think that the few posts which do speak of men in a negative light were spawned by hostilities towards the women in other parts of the site. Most of the posts in the women's section have nothing to do with men and you are free to investigate this. It's not a place to rant about men and the vast majority of the time, it's not being used as such.

You also admit to saying "pretty offensive stuff about women" in various forums here. I'll have to take your word for it. Perhaps these self admitted offensive remarks have been the reason you have been called a misogynist.

As I've previously said multiple times. I'm not opposed to a men's section. If men feel there is a need for one then there is a need for one. But I am opposed to a forum which exists as a bashing ground for the opposite sex.

Here is something you might want to think about. I've always been in male dominated environments. Most of my classmates have been male, most of my friends have been male, most of my interests are shared primarily by males instead of females, most of the forums I post on are male dominated, and the field I am in now is male dominated, and in none of those realms have I ever had a problem. In none of those classrooms, in none of those forums, amongst none of my male friends or colleagues had I ever been the object of hatred based purely on my sex, until I came here, to WrongPlanet.

Here, in the one place where I was supposedly to find those who understood me and who would support me, I found myself attacked by men, who didn't even know me, simply because I was a woman. I found men who hated women because they could not get a date when they felt they deserved one.Men who proclaimed that women only liked jerks. That women only liked men who had money. That women with AS had it so much easier because they only had to sit there and look pretty to get a date when as I woman with AS I can tell you that certainly isn't the case.

I found myself under an attack I didn't provoke in a place I was supposed to find friends just because I was a woman.

Have you had that experience here?

fist-bump for Chronos!! !! hallelujah, seriously.

i am a token male amongst men in real life, but that is irrelevant to me because i am proud to be female. nonetheless, i didn't ever experience such loathing because of my gender until i came to WP. it is shocking to me, and nothing i've ever felt before...

That's a matter of 'welcome to the f*****g internet '.

You really think all of those guys spewing all this 'he man woman's hater's club' s**t would say that s**t to your face in real life.

More likely they'd react with "oh no, that be a female, I'm scared I need to go hide in my room". Or they just wouldn't say much, but they definitely wouldn't say the same stuff in real life that they say here.

Kind of the same principle of youtube comments. You have never seen the true ugliness of humanity until you read youtube comments. Internet anonymity.

whatever. i haven't seen it elsewhere. just here. my only other experience on a forum involved people potentially saving my life, and my blog is a target for pleasantness. no reason to expect people to be as*holes on a support site like this one.

and if people are douchebags towards women on here, i WILL lay the smackdown.

You apparently skipped the bit where I stated most of the forums I post on are male dominated

WrongPlanet is not the only forum I post on. I've been posting on forums for about 15 years now, most male dominated. Most men just don't harbor such negative feelings towards women in general as some of the men here do. Notice I say some, because I've concluded that most of the men here do not harbor such negative feelings towards women in general. Most of them are more emotionally mature than that and more willing to accept that any shortcomings they have with women are just an extension of social impairments due to having AS, and are not the fault of women.

MAKE LOVE NOT WAR!! !
As a man and a honorary female,
IHMO theres bloddy gender wars are f*****g waste of time!

(Please note, I am having some tech issues with my network right now
if I don't replay an offline doing some uber sysamid voodoo to two fubared computers)

I've used lots of forums myself & in my experience the men & women on WP are generally a lot nicer towards each other than on most other forums I've used. Forums on dating sites are the worst & sense Aspies tend to have a harder time with relationships; it's understandable that people here would be more bitter

To be honest I'm skeptical many of those who come here and bring negative views of women with them all have AS. They may have AS but they might not. There are a lot of things that can cause social issues. And then there are people out there who are just @$$holes and try to use AS as an excuse. Or their spouses try to use it as an excuse because they can't come to terms with the fact that they married someone who is just an @$$hole (but that's a subject for a different post)

But anyone with AS who hasn't done so already needs to take a good look in the mirror and realize that the source of all of their social issues is within the person standing in front of them, and not the fault of anyone else, if it can even be considered someone's fault.

We are the odd ones out. We are the ones who do not play by the social rules of society. We are the problem with our social lives. It's a hard pill to swallow but it's the first step in learning to overcome one's difficulties.

I've decided neither are worth getting involved with.
