Yeah exactly, notice the homophobia.

The GRAND Canyon is... actually, very, very, VERY Grand.

It's a huge place, bigger than any I've ever experienced before or since. Considering it "overrun" with... anything would be quite a feat. You could fill it with everyone in America and you'd still have space left over for two or three California Condors.

has the sudden urge to spill the beans about his entire lovelife and the failures and tribulations experienced-

On second thought, NAHhhhhhh,....

Women who fall into this category aren't even in the dating pool.

He goes off and gets laid. She stays at home. Looks like everything works out. What's everyone arguing about? Both characters get exactly what they're signing up for, unless we have some users on Lemmy who really need to touch grass and realize that not every chick is locking their door lmao.

The problem isn't being "normal" which I'm sure is easy for neurotypicals, but for us awkward types not so much. I'm literally diagnosed "has trouble reading social cues" so yeah sometimes picking up on those might be harder than taxes.

But even normal men are seen as default rapists, assaulters, and murderers simply for being a man. I understand this is because many women have been assaulted before, but for some reason it still seems like painting an entire gender with a broad brush because of the actions of a small portion of that gender is "wrong." Maybe I only think that because it's wrong to do it to any other gender, or race, or sexual orientation, and so my broken neurodivergent brain says "well if it's wrong to do then it is wrong to do now." Like, I can't just assume every woman will cheat on me because 3 have, or that every woman will rape me because 2 have (3 if threatening suicide when I say no to convince me to begrudgingly do it counts, not sure since I eventually acquiesced but..) Nor can I assume every black guy is going to pull a knife on me just because it has happened once previously, and if I can count friends being stabbed it happened a lot back when a few of us lived in a particular neighborhood (all moved thankfully), and then there's the racist ol' "55% of crime is committed by 13% of the population" shit. Still with all of that, it's not right to paint those individual's entire demographic groups as the same, but it's fine just this one time?

Sorry, I'm just too dumb for such cognitive dissonance and ideological inconsistency, it's either wrong always or never.

The bitterly ironic part is that the men who took that to heart are the GOOD men, you know those that actually respect women and their wishes.

The asshole men, don't give a shit and keep wearing red hats and calling women FEMALES.

The whole movement has backfired hard and made it harder for women to find nice guys

The next human female was several hundred kilometers away...

...and probably more cold than "hot".

I've seen a lot of posts, articles etc with women making those exact complaints, and I always find them rather sad.

It's been made very clear that the majority of women don't want to be approached most of the time, especially by someone they don't know, and that's fair enough. You need to accept that you're the outlier.

People ask less questions if you shoot a bear.

How can you think it's proven as the only reason for their objection? And why do you think I'm a threat to women? Just because we've both been saying it's bad that men have this unfortunate stereotype?

At best, you would still only have correlation implying causation. But seriously, nothing in these comments shows your accusations as reasonable, let alone true.

So what you're saying here is that men are so dangerous and violent as a whole, that men need to protect themselves from the dangers of other men...

But women should stop taking precautions around men and stop constantly complaining about not wanting to get raped and murdered by men, because not all men are violent rapists and it hurts mens feelings?

I don't even date AI.

You said it's "always a man."

Why do you feel the need to throw bogus arguments at me which aren't related to what I wrote? Just to "win" an argument that is only in your head? Because I have no clue what you're talking about.

The alps are not exactly small either. But somehow you keep running into tourists and influencers constantly.

It is yeah

Two scientists met via Tinder in Antartica and matched to each other when they were a 45 min helicopter ride away from each other .

Okay I'm gonna pop off a hot take that I have no intention of defending but it has raised interesting conversation in the past:

Yes, men are in fact inferior, and I say this not because I particularly like it, but because the way masculinity manifests in mammals is through the y chromosome acting not like a legitimate whole instruction set in itself, but rather more like a "patch" or, to put it in colloquial terms, "DLC": DownLoadable Content does not work without the base game, and the y-chromosome cannot function without an x-chromosome.

An egg is fertilized XY and the Y is completely non-functional? Congratulations: this clump of cells will develop into a sapient individual whom is intersex but appears entirely feminine.

An egg is fertilized XY and the X is completely non-functional? This clump of cells will never develop into a person. At most it will be ejected as a miscarriage.

Male mammals are derivative knockoffs of the default (female) template that exist to perform dangerous functions that enhance the survivability of a population at large at the expense of individual survival and prosperity. They are hormonally predisposed to aggressively occupy, hold, and defend territory, and get killed sacrificially in conflict while the rest of the specimen's family group can either hide or escape to continue the gene line without them.

And again - I'm describing it like this NOT because I particularly like it or agree with it or think it's ideal! It kinda sucks actually. But accepting this has helped me to better recognize the pitfalls of nature and step around them. I can't even begin to list all the many BRUH MOMENTS I've avoided by realizing internally, "wait a darn minute, is this... DUDE BEHAVIOR? Eew! I don't need this conflict! I'm being argumentative for stupid illogical hormone-driven reasons, so I'm going to stop now, reassess the counter arguments because they might have been right all along, and maybe apologize before I end up going to prison for stabbing someone over a stupid verbal disagreement."

I invite any and all to wipe the floor with me using facts and evidence though, and maybe I'll learn some cool stuff along the way. But this is the hypothesis I've been running with just fine for years.

Also, fun fact, birds are kind of the opposite! They have ZZ and ZW hormones where the feminine reproductive caste is the changing variable!

Well then why are you commenting about it like it does

You're right, it's not always a man, except somehow it's always a man.
