It's apparently not allowed to complain about dating as a woman... A bit of a RANT + my thoughts on it

So is everyone who hits on you or thinks you look good or whatever automatically reducing you to a sex doll? I did say im not talking about the people who shout at you on the streets or just offer lewd, creepy comments how about how good your dress would look on the floor, more the advances and reasonable compliments you recieve from men you're just not interested in.

And obviously im not saying thats where all your self worth should come from, how did you even get that from that statement? Its just nice to feel sexy and wanted and a bunch of advances from random girls would do that for me. Its not a matter of getting attention that would make me feel good, its a matter of getting any attention at all.

I know you wont try to understand, but you saying 'I dont care about men not getting attention that makes them feel good, cos im not getting any that makes me feel good' is kind of part the entitlement because those guys arent getting any attention at all. I.e you dont care about guys not getting any attention because you're not getting the attention you feel you should be - which is to say - attention from guys you're actually interested in, even though you are getting some .Again obviously excluding people that catcall and just make creepy comments because thats harrassment and its well threatening.
