Observations dealing with women

Yeah, guys have lots of flaws too. In general, their testosterone makes them less verbal, less empathetic, more prideful, more aggressive, more competitive, and more sexually driven. But that brutishness came in really handy thousands of years ago, and resulted in them accumulating a lot of social privilege between then and now. So nowadays, when brutishness isn't such a plus anymore, it's still often seen as a positive because it's a classically masculine trait.

The real depressing part of this for me is that because men are so proud and privileged and don't really care and/or have the capability to consider our feelings, it doesn't occur to them how unfair the situation is. When we try to address the issue, they just think we're whining. They're more concerned about not getting laid because of how riled up we are than about why we're riled up. It's a bummer.

Of course, the good news is not all men are this simple and brutish anymore than all women are shallow and illogical. The other good news is that our ancestors have obtained some very key rights for us that allow us to take our place as people in society. Now we can positively represent our sex, and demonstrate to more men that we do deserve an equal place. It's BS that we're in that position of having to prove ourselves, and its BS how we get treated along the way, but we have to make the best of our situation and be grateful it's not 50 years ago.

Anyway, good luck getting over it. I'm still kind of pissed about it. But the sooner you stop worrying about the people who disdain you for what you don't have in your pants, the better. The world is full of assholes, and life isn't fair. To paraphrase a great quote, "Life becomes easier once you learn to accept an apology you never got." Don't waste your energy on them. Be awesome, and let them sit in the dark angrily fapping to your likeness on C-SPAN.
