This is a question asked by a woman and look at the overwhelming reponse!

I'am amazed by the kind of responses posted by women especially inspite of what all happens at G&WS.

Lads what do you think?

LADS WHATS THE MATTER WITH YOU ALL? THEY ARE OVERWHELMINGLY AFFIRMING THEIR LOVE FOR MEN.

WHY DO WE HAVE TO MISREAD EVERYTHING?

DO YOU THINK THERE IS ANY HATRED HERE ???

Edit:HappySnappy what are those responses expressing love or hatred ??

Why do you misread everything ? The whole idea was to acknowledge this question as great !!!

Edit:Carrie this was meant to be a question for men but most seem to have misread the whole idea behind posting the link to this question.

I'am not saying love or hate a particular group i'am saying LOOK AT MAJORITY OF RESPONSES OF RESPONSES FROM WOMEN THERE IS NO HATRED INSPITE OF BEING HATED AT TIMES AND HARMED BY THE OPPOSITE SEX.

Edit:Carrie my dear lady i think this question has done the exact opposite of what i had intended.

My dear this does not bewilder me and neither do i endorse generalizations i saying that some women who posted the responses are worth appreciating and recognizing.

Seriously Carrie i have not read a reaction like this from you for some time now.

Edit:Carrie i'am not bewildered infact i feel great about this as a man the whole idea was to recognize that G&WS is not just about gender gatred or trolling and certainly not about generalizations like you said all women are chairs and we love chairs.

Answer 1

Well, I'm not a lad, but I appreciate what you're saying. You have women--I venture to guess that most women in this forum have had at least one negative thing happen to them at the hands of some man--who still do not hate men. That is the nature of many women. We're taught to forgive, we're taught to get over these things and move on, and we do. The ability to separate a wrong act from the gender of a perpetrator is a noble one. If that weren't the case, everyone would be going around hating everyone, every race, every belief system, everything. There is no point. So, I appreciate what you're saying--I saw your answer to this, and your apparent amazement at the lack of hatred. I guess some people are evolved enough to not let other people's ignorance control their own lives. GWS is a microcosm--full of extremists, true, but it is reflective somewhat of general societal attitudes. That's pathetic. But we keep participating and putting up with **** from morons. Why? Optimism? Maybe. I don't know. I just know that there's more to life than giving control to others who really don't know what they're talking about. Thanks for the question.

Answer 2

Hi Man in Search :)
The majority of men I like, there's very few that I dislike, and the ones that I dislike, the reason is because everything I say is taken out of context, no matter how positive it may be.
Have learnt an awful lot about what makes men tick and admittedly there's still alot I need to learn, but as far as things go, my respect for men has increased rather than decreased over time.

Answer 3

I think that the responses were realistic and enlightening. That's not to say that I agree with all of them, but, for the most part, I do. What I hear those women saying is that even though they may have had some bad experiences with men, or been discriminated against, they don't hate men. That's saying something.

I survived a 15 year long abusive marriage. When I finally got out of this relationship I had to file a restraining order and protection order because he stalked me. He stalked and threatened me, my friends, and my family for two years. Two years of hell we went through....all because he didn't want me to leave him. He was definitely unstable, and dangerous. Eventually, he did time behind bars for things he did to me (because I wouldn't go back to him)- assault (with a knife), attempted rape, and violating the protection order (among many other things, most of which I never reported)...and this experience did not result in me hating men. I don't hate men. In fact, I don't even hate him. I realize he's sick. I think I pity him more than anything else. And part of me still loves him, although I'd never take him back again. I have to admit, for a couple of years after this, my kids and I saw a family counselor. I did have issues back then...not with men, but with THAT man. My relationship with him left some very seriously deep psychological and emotional scars. I'm happy to say that as of now, I'm a healed person. I'm back in school, getting a college degree...I'm in training to become a counselor myself. I don't hate men. Even the men who are psychologically and emotionally unstable are people who need help, not people I would hate. Hate does nothing to help anyone. It's a destructive force.

Answer 4

I have been posting here for a while and the only people who pretend to hate men are the male trolls who impersonate women like ladyrune etc. They do this to cause dissention and most people with half a brain ignore them. I have yet to see one feminist here in G and WS state they hate men. I have seen Happy and the rest of his aliases say in many ways at many times how much they dislike women. Are you beginning to see a pattern here?

Answer 5

All prejudice (to pre judge) is a mental shortcut. Sure, life would be easier if you could just take one look at someone and know what kind of person they are. It does take a lot more thinking to judge everyone as individuals instead of lumping them into a group and thinking you know all you need to about them.

Answer 6

You're very sweet for pointing this out... but truthfully, I really don't see how anyone can "love" or "hate" a group based on a physical charactersitic. People should judge others based on their individuality, not because they have a penis/white skin/dark skin, etc.

Obviously saying that you hate a group is far, far more dangerous than saying you love a group, but I'm just curious what one is claiming when they say they love a group - they're essentializing them, and not taking into account that many other factors affect a human being's personality.

Answer 7

Some people have so much hate in their heart that they cannot see anything else. They are numb to all of the love, in fact, they despise it, because they are incapable of feeling it.

I think this explains one person's answer in particular.

Answer 8

''LOOK AT MAJORITY OF RESPONSES OF RESPONSES FROM WOMEN THERE IS NO HATRED INSPITE OF BEING HATED AT TIMES AND HARMED BY THE OPPOSITE SEX.''

Oh and men don't love women in spite of being hurt by women?

4 women used to hate men. That is 17.391%.
2 women currently hate men. That is 8.695%.

THAT'S A LOT!!! I'm VERY surprised! I'm sorry arunrajp, but this question failed...

From my experiences, women tend to hate men when they're younger. Men tend to hate women when they're older.

Carrie, are you saying the average man hates women? A long time ago, our ''patriarchy'' WAS a matriarchy. Just because we live in one or the other doesn't mean the average person hates the opposite sex.

Answer 9

it doesn't bother me.

she was referring to some men not all.

have you seen some of the questions posted by men.

Answer 10

Hating men it is part of feminist culture. But it's politically incorrect to admit it.
