There's LOTS of unprovoked cruelty by women

The gentleman who started the thread about unprovoked cruelty be women is on to something. Because I was unable to post there, may as well get something going here!


It seemed that nobody was supportive of that man. So, I shall be. There is indeed lots of unprovoked cruelty by women. In this culture, women are at liberty to take verbal and even physical swings at men - but the opposite is, of course, not acceptable.


I'm seeing that there's lots of female resentment against both individual men, and men as a group. That's because men are seeing just how terrible and corrupt the family court system is - so they're avoiding marriage and even women like the plague. I'm guessing that is what that gentleman experienced.


Many women will look to pick a fight with a man. Maybe she needs some drama, maybe she just wants to see what the man is about (which is none of her business), maybe she just wants to express her resentment against the nearest available man, etc.


A "bad boy" won't put up with that crap - and these women know it. So, they fawn over the man instead. Go figure.


There are better ways for men than to go to bars and meet obnoxious women. Because eharnony is running a "men are pigs" thread, a man won't get any support from eharmony either. I have some ideas, and would like to share them with men and women with good hearts. Let me know your ideas, also.

Bitter much?


There's plenty of bad behavior to go around. Threads like this just perpetuate it. I think we've all (men and women) got plenty of stories about specific bad behaviors the other gender is doing.


As for the 'women can take a swing at a man, but the reverse isn't true,' you're free to defend yourself at any time. My personal policy is that I'll never hit a woman first. If she hits me, closed fist, she's just forfeited any right to gentlemanly behavior upon my part.


This has happened in my life exactly twice. Once was when I was about eight. A girl started hitting me with a piece of Hot Wheels track, and when I turned to face her, she said, "You can't hit a girl." She was very wrong and the look of surprise on her face was amazing. I seem to remember her running inside to mommy, screaming that "He hit me!". Mom had been watching and told her that she got what she deserved. ;-)


The second time I was in my twenties. A woman I was dating and I got into an argument. At one point, she completely lost it and started hitting me, closed fist, on my face. I had not even remotely threatened anything physical up to that point. After trying to ward off a few blows, she received exactly one punch back, in the same spot. It ended the argument, the fight, and the relationship right there.


I do not tolerate someone deliberately trying to injure me, no matter what their gender.


The only time someone has slapped me (open hand), I richly deserved it, and a slap? Yawn. I'm a man. I can take it.


My point being that you don't have to put up with anything from anyone, even women. You don't have to be the "bad boy", either. Just stand by your values and walk your own path. The right women will find you, and they'll appreciate who and what you are. If you're finding yourself around the type of woman that will treat you with "unprovoked cruelty", then go find different women with whom to spend your time.


They are not all like what you describe here.
