Why do some lesbians hate men ?

Question

I am not trying to be offensive at all. I just wonder why some lesbians hate men with a passion, yet then dress or act in a masculine way themselves.

I am aware not all lesbians hate men, I just know some who are very rude to any man they happen to meet and constantly say how disgusting/horrible/untrustworthy men are. Whats the deal

Answer 1

I'm a lesbian and I don't hate men at all. And contrary to stereotypes, I have never been hurt by any man I've been in a relationship with. All the men I have ever dated have treated me wonderfully. I have also never been abused by a man.I haven't been sexually abused. I do not dress or act like a man or date women that do. I do not wish I had any special body parts that men have or date women that think they have to. I love women as they come and am attracted to them naturally, and don't need anything artificial. I always say " I don't hate men, I just don't date men."As a matter of fact, I love men as friends because I can relate to them on a dating level, and we can sit and talk about women. The only men that get on my nerves are the ones that can't take "No, I'm not into guys" for an answer. But it's so easy for people to generalize what they don't know about. I always try not to sterotype any paticular group no matter what their ethnicity,religion, orientation, creed, or what have you because I know what it feels like being black, a woman, and a lesbian, and pretty much poor, and I wouldn't want anyone to do that to me.

Answer 2

I agree with the jealousy factor of it all. Not to sound conceited but I am an above average looking male pretty much a pretty boy. I have never had very good luck with getting along with lesbians. Every encounter I have had from being at college or a coworker, social event or consumer meeting ext. I have seemed to be treated terribly by them. And its easy to sense this. For instance I will be having a conversation with an attractive women and they will approach with a demeaning comment or something of the sort or just try to make you look bad when you have been praised or done well in something. I am a not a homophobe by all means I fully respect the lesbian and homosexual community and there rights. But I cant understand what it is. Is it that they wish that they were of the opposite sex because of being attracted females or they are jealous because it easier for a man to become sexual with an attractive women and they are limited and im not making this stuff up either?

There is definitely a 'Thing' now for lesbians to hate white males, gay or straight for their falsely perceived "White Make Privilege", They use it as an excuse to berate, castigate, intimidate or just be rude. Underlying is the strange habit of many lesbians and transgender FTM's to dress, talk and act like Douche Bag men. In the style of Homer Simpson. So there is this undercurrent of "issues' not fully resolved in the lesbian community. Not all, but a very large percentage now are on this wave of Obama inspired ownership of rights. Which is fine, But I have seen heard and experienced this Neoliberal Lesbian angst personally many times. Frankly it's really annoying that they cannot see that they are discriminating against white males, especially older white men, yet feel they have been given a mandate to "right things". Racism, Sexism, Penis Envy, The works. Women will never be men in their body, They can be Trans, but that is as far as it goes. We must live with what god gave us. It's ok to improve or change, but you will always be either a man or a women, surgery or not.

Answer 4

I'm a lesbian and I have tons of guy friends. I always have. It's not that I don't like men...I was one of those scorned by several men in my dating history. I like men, even still think they are cute sometimes (and my partner is the same way), we just don't have any interest in BEING with one. I think your friend has been horribly treated by a man, and her hatred toward the male race is a result of that. I would talk to her and let her know how you feel, and maybe ask her why it is that she hates men so much. Maybe it will help your friendship get closer if you knew what she's been through, and if you can confront her about the issue of her bashing your potential mates.

Answer 5

im a lesbian but only hate men when I have bad cramps from my period LMAO! lol Maybe theres a few lesbians who wish they were guys and feel jealous or maybe some lesbians who had bad experiences with men and feel that way but I dont know any woman like this. I think those who do might need some therapy though. for me I dont hate men (except when i have those cramps lol) I actualyl prefer to hang with dudes. Woman can be annoying and most talk too much gossip lol. but overall it depends on the person not the sex, color of skin, who they love, or shape of eyes. though some men are aholes and some woman are b*tches, thats just life

Answer 6

I work at a hardware store... I can't tell you how many lesbians walk in and feel a "*****" everytime they're in the store. "IM AT A hardware store THEREFORE I MUST ACT LIKE A SWEATY BALLED MAN" I always get those whenever I am at work. MOST of them give me attitudes, some actually are fond of me. For the most part, they always try to take control over everything. I thought women were bad, but lesbians take the damn cake. I am a straight dude fyi. If for any reason a lesbian wants to go toe to toe. If a woman wants to act like a man, she'll be dropped like a man. THAT is what gets under my skin, when they try to compete when men. But then once the MAN lays a finger on her, she's automatically defenseless against a man and calls the police (in the first place she wanted to come off hard against a male" I'm just saying my opinion on them on how they act. Really annoying, I just ignore them, but sometimes their ego is longer than their strap on.

Answer 7

It's butch lesbians that have the hostility towards men. This is a product of their female hostility (yes, compared to males, females are much more hostile creatures ... forget the sugar and spice) - coupled with their male ballsiness (a product of the in-uturo, hormonal masculinisation of their brains (predicates behavioural disposition)).

They lack the nurturing, social sense that makes straight woman cool and sassy.
So you could say that dispositionally, they've ended up with the worst of both worlds.
They are stroppy, unsavvy and take themselves incredibly seriously - which unfortunately for them, makes them the ripe targets of much mockery ... as it does anyone who continually offends the fundamentals of social interactions.

Answer 8

lesbians dont hate men i only hate a few men cause i just dont like them but we just dont like men sexually get the pic

Answer 9

Some Lesbians do hate men. Just like some none Lesbian women hate men. From talking with some friends of mine I have found it usually stems from abuse. That should have been easy enough for you to figure out. Sexual preference would not be a reason.

Answer 10

I guess it's easy to generalize and assume when you don't know any of us. I don't hate men, and I don't personally know any lesbians who do. I like men and have lots of male friends. I'm simply not physically attracted to them. I'm sure there may be some lesbians who hate men...I know some straight women who do, to. and the "butch" lesbians (and most lesbians aren't butch) aren't trying to look like or even be a man. they aren't envious of men or their penis. they're simply dressing in a way that's comfortable. I'm not butch, but I'm not that girlie, either. I rarely wear a dress...I prefer slacks/jeans because they are comfortable (as do a lot of straight women do, too). but I don't want to be a man or look like one. I've never been hurt by a man...and I've never dated or been with a man because I've never been interested.
