I can SMELL the feigned innocence in your question.
But to answer, repeated violations of trust at the hands of women, with the assistance of other men, or the government usually does the trick.

Some men mistrust and some women too.... just happens because of the upbringing and the values... but helps for us to take chances....
For that I think American movies are the best in the world... they speak about hope, love, care and so many emotions that we sometimes let it go by at the last moment....
Trust is a big issue.... it happens in time.
Cheers Sigy and thanks for the sweet email.

Why do some women mistrust men?
In answer to both questions: I'd say bad childhood experiences. That could include being abused by girls/boys, having a bad mother/father, being cheated on (many times). I would also add for men that seeing men's image in the media might cause them to not trust women, also losing child custody, being divorced, falsely accused of crime, or if a woman aborted his kid.

My opinion based on reasonable observations: I don't feel that this question is gender-specific, or sexual orientation-specific. I think there are a few that distrust others, in general. I would say that some trust speculation is warranted, but like anything in life, there must be balance for emotional health. (You don't want to let people walk over you, but you can't have a wall up your entire life).
I'm also a firm believer that Being Trustworthy is the most important thing in a relationship(most say that trust is the most important, but I disagree---being trustworthy is the most important)... and I live by that philosophy as well.

Modest proposer's statement is a bit to blanket-ty for comfort as we all are individuals. Having said that there are women who do act like this , due to the fact that some branches of feminism will not critique itself .
Many people have stated some branches of feminism do not consider things such as collateral damage.

I don't trust anyone men or women. I go out and I have fun and I have many friends but I don't trust them because there is no way that you can know what a person think in their head.

There are a few women out there who are conniving and decieving.Unfortunately,they make life for the rest of us who are not,very hard.They make us look like we are always running game and up to something. Some women enjoy being with lots of other men and cannot commit they are often being sneaky about it,instead of saying,"hey I'm not interested in seeing just you". Some women much like men,break hearts,but that goes both ways. Women can have a hold on men sometimes,well some men. Some men can be attached to women ,as alot of women can be to men,they feel hurt as if women have some sort of strong magical power to control men. I think men can be just like women,they get hurt like us,they feel and love just like us.But often men forget they are human and can feel hurt like us,and when it happens they are all scarred as if they could have never been hurt from a woman. So as for the women who cheat and decieve they cause alot of men to see alot of women this way. They seem to take hurt a little deeper then women,apparently it scars them alot more. They are very cautious men,as many do not like to get attached and when they do,they feel violated when they become hurt,because they tried so hard to not become attached. Men like to think of themselves as untouchable to emotions,but it happens and not many men are to aware at first,but when it happens and they fall for us,hurting them scorns them as if they didn't ask to fall in love,but then again,we never told them to fall in love. In reality,women and men both have a mistrust towards each other.We never want to except that we can fall in love and for the ones who want to fall in love it seems as if it never happens. Even when love is not involved,men feel women are out to get them sometimes.

I don't know. It must have something to do with early life experience when they were rejected by women or felt that way, though they may not have been. It's complicated but I believe that women need to understand the possible dynamics of this

I do not think it is gender-pacific, but more prevalent in men! it is caused by a persons insecurity. I had a neighbor that went through women, like most men changed underwear, He would always tell them about his exs, Always sung the somebody did me wrong song! He always accused them of cheating on him, He was very controlling, and did not let them go anywhere alone. And when they left, it was because they were sluts. One day as he was singing his song to me. I told him I have seen you with many women, I considered Keepers, But his insecurity drives them away.
Also if a person is overly distrustful of their partner, It is because they are being unfaithful and accuses the partner of doing the same.
