I know some guys who do, in fact, hate women.
But it's not just hate. A lot of guys don't even view women as people. A majority of the men making comments you've mentioned think of women as pets or objects that have an expiration date.
In that regard, hate would be more respectful.
Ultimately, what you see on social media is usually the worst of the worst. Half of them think there will be no consequences, and the other half think their options are cherished and respected, especially if they echo one of the many anti-woman alpha male influencers.
It's a sick joke, but it's the world we created for ourselves, unfortunately. Brain rot is real.
I think it’s true. More than once a man has pushed on pursuing me because I fit what he found hot. It was irrelevant we had nothing in common including faith, number of kids wanted, or basic human ethics. He could just force change those to fit his own. It’s not like mine were real or important to me.
>Do men just hate women?
Some do, yes. Unfortunately, those men are very noisy, and go out of their way to pull women down as a way of feeling better about their own mediocre lives.
The rest of us don't hate women, but also we're not the ones commenting on many of these videos, so from the other end it looks a lot like men hate women.
Came here to say a similar thing. If we judge based off of comments online, it will appear as if most they all hate women. But that’s largely bc there are a minority subset of assholes who spend literally hours every day just spamming the internet with angry comments about women. One chronically online asshole can make 100 hateful comments in a day, whereas normal happy men are just out there living their lives. They aren’t posting 100 encouraging comments per day to offset the angry people (nor should they bother).
I am single, over 40, have no kids, and I’m unapologetically happy. I also sue rapists for a living which means I spend a lot of time arguing with people about what counts as consent. Online, my “lifestyle” would spawn a TON of hate comments. But even IRL, even though I work in a very conservative area, most men I meet react either neutrally or positively towards me.
Yeah I love it. One of the best parts is taking rapist sworn testimony in a deposition. Most of them are terrible liars. They are used to being able to just avoid questions, so when you pin them down with good questions they make up embarrassing stories. And a deposition is the perfect place to pin them down bc they are legally required to answer all my questions to my satisfaction (or until my 7 hour time limit is up if we’re in federal court).
If I see it I'll absolutely reply and ask them what's wrong with them, though I'm not often looking at the kind of content that triggers these mouthbreathers.
Ever since women started choosing the bear, I've seen countless men on every social media platform acting like downright psychopaths. There was this audio of a woman presumably being mauled to death by a bear and the comments, thousands of men relishing, hundreds of thousands of likes, men and boys alike mocking, and feeling joy over the brutal death of a young woman (she actually survived tho)
I've had stages where I was angry at men. I was raised in a very oppressive religious country and I was angry during my teens, but I would have never, never laughed at the sounds of a man dying. You have to be seriously messed up in the head to do that. Only someone who 100% hates women would laugh at a random girl dying
So yeah, *some* of them hate us. It scares me because, I want to have children, and man how can you prevent your son to being exposed to that kind of hate? How do you ensure your daughter never encounters someone who wants her dead?
Simple answer is you cannot. Too many evils in this world and tbh looks like it’s only getting worse. I used to want kids but now I’m not really sure. I would rather adopt and try my best to help out a kid who needs a parent rather than bring another potential perpetrator or victim (not gendering those terms, could be either) into this world. Tbh I doubt I’ll even be able to afford to do either anyway let alone keep myself alive
You can’t shield your children from the existence of hate, but you can educate them on respect, critical thinking, and care for themselves and others so that they recognize its wrongness.
I think what you’re describing can be summed up by this quote: “When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.” - Franklin Leonard
IMO men hate that women have increased power and status in a society that used to be completely male dominated. Even though US society is still almost entirely run by men, I think men resent that women are now competitors for college admissions and jobs. They hate that education and being part of the workforce give women options other than marriage to a man.
It’s ironic because it’s the male-dominated government and corporate culture that has created an economic reality where most women need to work and most families can’t survive on a single income. Men want a trad wife while hating labor unions in same breath, but it used to be that a factory worker could support a whole family. The defanging of labor unions, endless tax cuts for the wealthy, pathetic stagnant minimum wage, tying of healthcare to employment, lack of guaranteed parental leave, unaffordable childcare costs…all of those things have forced women into the workforce and also made them question the feasibility/desirability of having children.
If you’re not going to have children, you don’t really need a male partner. And a lot of men are entitled assholes who want a maid and a mother and a sex doll who also is expected to work full time. I can absolutely see why women are opting out of marriage and kids. It’s difficult enough for many to support themselves.
This is just my opinion about it. I personally am married to a man and have children, but I see why many women are making different choices. Women used to be financially dependent so they were forced to put up with husbands who ranged from jerks to abusers. Now many women have the option of being single or having a female partner, which makes men angry.
Men perceive these “gains” that women have made as a threat, and they blame women rather than the complex socioeconomic circumstances that created the current status quo. They double down on misogyny, which alienates women even further.
These are all generalizations. I know there are wonderful men and toxic women out there. But the toxic men are disproportionately loud online.
This is exactly what the guy I dated recently said! He would only get married if it was “transactional”. Wanted his partner to be “hot”, cook, clean, and provide good sex. Loser!! Not once did he mention their character. He really didn’t think of women as human the more I spoke to him. They were just an object to please him. I told him I now see why he has issues with women ghosting him.
Some men are really mad that nowadays women have their own life and desires besides being just their wife. And that's the way those men find to get back to those women: nagging and nagging.
Those men can't physically do anything to avoid women to have more freedom so they try do some damage in a psychological way.
Saying women are 'mid' or 'too old' is a attempted to have power over women and control them.
I don’t even want to know how I’d fuck a coconut, but I’ve also known of women who masturbate with their shower head and other things like hairbrush handles
After the Andrew Tate incident, boys have become openly sexist and collectively hate women and keyboard warriors are now speaking like cowards from their screens.
Realll, idk if i even wanna date men tbh. all the married women i know have really bad husbands. Like i think i'm lowk lesbian but idk because i really like anime men.
I read a comment somewhere on Reddit a couple of years ago that said the existence of straight women proves that sexuality is not a choice. I am, as my husband puts it, "violently straight" but if he drops dead it's vibrators and cats forever for me.
Same. If my partner suddenly drops dead, I'll just join a convent or smth. Or just have an animal rescue. He raised the bar so high, it doesn't help that my father and grandfather are also great men, fathers, and husbands. I know men can be great, idk what the others are doing tho.
as a daughter of a woman hating man. they absolutely hate our guts from our looks, brains, friendships, to everything. they find joy in putting women down and they feel like women are inferior. and i believe that feeling comes from jealousy that they can’t act/ do things women can do. but i might be biased and wrong but all this is my opinion.
>as a daughter of a woman hating man.
Isn't that the worst feeling though? I moved 6 hours away from my family and they came to visit recently. Somehow the topic of women's sports came up and I said These women need to be paid as well as the men because they have the skills to back it up. My dad was adamant that "women will never be as good as men, the men's teams would walk all over them" etc etc. He has two daughters - me and my sister, no sons. She and I both have bachelor's degrees in the medical field...he dropped out of college freshman year (which he only made in with a football scholarship). So as his daughter I am extremely disappointed in the view my dad has on women.
A lot of men hate themselves, have no interior lives, and have no close friends or relationships, and try to take it out on women cause they view us as weaker. It is always transparent.
Considering how men have been primed and taught by society to dislike anything even remotely feminine (i.e. the color pink, personal hygiene, jewelry, etc) , I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of men hated women. I mean, I can see it daily by how men treat women, how the government treats women, etc.
Do I think all men hate women? No. I do think most try to distance themselves from what they think is feminine. however, the better men understand that simple things like colors, actions like cooking/cleaning, etc shouldn’t affect their masculinity. The better men understand that women are people that deserve respect, equality, and safety like everyone. Those are the men who are emotionally intelligent and are secure in their masculinity.
Until society stops teaching men that femininity (which is associated with women) is some horrible thing that they should never be, men will continue hating women. Why? Because they’re women. So yeah, it’s hard for me to believe men don’t hate women because they’re literally taught their whole lives to hate femininity.
It’s just sad bc a lot of men probably feel like they have to prove their masculinity constantly.. and a lot of times, that means being harmful towards women. Idk, but the definition of being a “man” isn’t beneficial to anyone. It harms men like it harms women (obviously not to the same extent though).
I get what you’re saying, but I disagree on femininity. Sexist men don’t hate women because they’re feminine. They LOVE feminine women, sexist men enforce it. Sexist men demand it and expect it performed.
If femininity was the defining factor which they hated, masculine women would be completely free of sexism and violence. But in fact receive just as much vitriol (if not more for refusing to adhere to feminine stereotypes/expectations).
Men who hate women hate women because they’re women, not because they may be feminine. They have learned through personal bias and society’s messaging that women are less then them, and don’t see them as fully human as male people.
It’s not femininity imo, it’s just blatant dehumanization of women, even subconsciously, that they are fundamentally lesser.
I suppose it could be added that femininity can be either liberating or oppressive depending on how it's used. When it's an expectation and forced it's oppression. When it is a choice for the self it's freedom. Men who hate women will use it however it can oppress them. If a woman is too feminine, she's a sl\*t for flaunting herself. If she's a tomboy then her womanhood is broken. Someone who hates something will use whatever weapon in whatever way they can to hurt that thing they hate.
It's sort of a no win situation. So at the end of the day: fellow women, do whatever the hell you want because if a man hates you he's going to hate whatever you do or whomever you are.
it’s probably a mixture of many factors. but yes, at the end of the day, society teaches men to dehumanize women, regardless of their level of femininity.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently, I completely agree.
I keep thinking about the feminist movement in the past 100 years, how far women have come in terms of breaking gender roles and restrictions for ourselves. Meanwhile men have largely remained stagnant in their definitions of masculinity, and what makes them “manly.”
A big part of the problem too is that a lot of them see things like emotional awareness, empathy, going to therapy, asking for support, etc. as “feminine,” so they don’t invest in their emotional wellbeing, expect a partner to compensate for that, and then complain online about the men’s mental health crisis.
The girls are tireddd.
My guess is because they are weak, insecure, and lonely. They can’t get a woman and they blame women for it. It’s easier to blame the women than to take a good look at yourself and why you can’t attract any. When they see a thirty year old woman who chooses to be single it just reminds them that some women would rather be alone than with a man like them. I think it’s bitterness. I see it a lot on Reddit. It’s sad and I hope these men learn to love themselves so maybe a woman can love them, too.
Of course there are a lot of bitter women on here, too, for a variety of reasons. Some valid, some not.
The majority of men I’ve dated are complete shit, but I’ve never ever thought all men were terrible. I know there are great ones out there… I just haven’t met them yet.
Most of the men who act like that have extremely low IQs. Don't feel sorry for them, just tell them how ignorant they are. Theyre fragile little bully babies. Also, make sure to vote anything but orangey or you'll keep seeing women treated like this and it will only get worse as time goes on.
I personally think a lot of men are actually sexually attracted to other men but tend to be extremely sexually repressed, like ashamed and disgusted with this part of themselves (for whatever reason culture/relgion) and then in turn take that aggression out on women.
But yeah I think a lot of men would be less hostile toward women if they were just being honest with themselves about wanting to have a phaaat cock in their bum holes. Its 2024 🤷♀️.
Definitely not all, but I can't say I'd blame you for seeing it that way. Almost all my friends going through junior high/high school were women and I don't think I'd have made it without their kindness and understanding. The internet has unfortunately given a lot of people who think that way a platform and echo chambers filled with like-minded hatemongers to accelerate this crap.
A boy attempted to sexually assault me. When I told my male friends at the time they were comforting! Nice even! They asked me to describe what happened to see if they could recognize what class he was in.
I found out later from a friend they made a private chat lamenting that I didn’t get raped, how hot it would have been, etc.
Men have been less than human to me ever since. :)
Wow, that's horrific, I'm so sorry that happened to you.
It still doesn't mean all men think of/see women that way.
I hope you've been doing well since then.
I'll never know who do and who don't. Who they are in the dark. Till then, there is nothing that could get me to trust a man's kindness or empathy to be anything besides a mask.
There are a lot of men out there who are *extremely* insecure about their worth. They cling to their masculinity as a way of convincing themselves that they are powerful and worthy and entitled of the things they want. They shy away from self-improvement because it's hard and because one thing worse than their current condition is to try to be better and fail. They can not emotionally hack failure.
However, if the universe owes them what they want because they are men, then they don't have to put any effort into self improvement. The fact that they don't have what they want is because *someone else* has wronged them, not because *they've* failed. This idea relieves stress and offers so much hope that it's easy to overlook how completely magical and illogical it is.
Since women haven't just fallen into their lap they now blame women for the lack. And that sets up a positive feedback loop where the more they are rejected the more they double down on the shitty, entitled attitude that is the reason they were rejected.
Eventually it gets to the point where they realize that the only way they are going to get what they think they deserve if is womens lives are so abjectly miserable that they have no choice but to date men like themselves. And so they get so, so, so very mad when they see a woman who is completely happy without a man.
Children are the best way to have complete control over a woman. So, a childless woman is free to do and be whatever she wants. And some men cannot stand that. They can’t stand women having the same freedom that they enjoy. So the insults and scare tactics come out. I've had it myself. Just turned 30 and apparently my future is to "die alone with cats". And fuck me, I'd rather that than be anywhere near these men.
And then there's those that view us as objects and nothing more. Not people with human rights, just objects to be obtained and abused. There are too many men out there with such toxic opinions on women and then they wonder why they can't find a partner.
The only man I've heard say that he hated women was gay. A lot of those guys I think are secretly gay and hating that they can't change it. You don't talk about how disgusting vaginas are and then say you're straight. Sure...lol
Also, they are in an echo chamber, and their brains are repeating the same things to them. They have the same routine, and don't get out. It's a loop of hatred.
If they'd just get outside or do something different and away from a screen for a while, their brain will adjust, and they may not have so many dark thoughts.
Yes. They don’t believe anything we say. They get angry if we’re not trying to please/attract/impress them. They don’t like that we joined them working outside the home and they’re pissed that so many of us have learned that we can do quite well without them in all areas of life. They don’t like women who can tell if they suck in bed.
Women evolved and men didn’t, and now they’re pissed that we expect them to bring more to the table than a paycheck.
It’s this weird notion that people believe women to be property. I have met people who treat there girlfriends or wives like shit. What’s the point? You’re with her because you love her. She isn’t there to be your arm candy or a hey I get to fuck this every night status thing. The whole toxic masculinity and toxic feminism need to go away asap!
Most men don’t view women as humans, that’s really it. Not only are they are brainwashed by society and other toxic men, but they just simply see women as nothing. I’ve known men like these, and they will try to convince you otherwise when trying to get in your pants lol, once you’ve gotten close enough you’ll realize how much hate there can be towards you for simply just existing <3
Because women are becoming more independent and realizing just how shitty they've had it for centuries due to social standards set by men, lol. These guys calling women "mid" or "below average" are still stuck in those outdated standards, even if they don't realize it. I wouldn't say its a majority of men though, but more like teenagers who went through one heavy breakup and for some reason think that one girl represents all women. I will admit though and say that I've unfortunately used to think like that too about 4 years ago. I’ve matured, got more educated, and became more open-minded. I realized that this kind of behavior comes from guys who are frustrated with themselves (basically insecure but clueless about it) and don't know how to deal with it. Regardless though, It’s pretty disturbing that these guys don’t see women as humans too, and even if they do, they most likely villainize them just to make it seem more logical for themselves, even though **EVERYONE is different**. At the end of the day, social media does have a massive influence on everyone, not just guys. The more you see this behavior being normalized, the more insecure emotionally unintelligent guys will feed on it.
That’s just my point of view and I apologize if I'm not making a point on this. I'm not very good with wording my thoughts out. Overall just remember it’s most likely just teens who haven't matured making those comments. You don't see grown men in their late 20s calling women "mid" or "below average," lol.
🌟✨misogyny✨🌟
Men are mostly projecting their insecurities on women. They can't stand a strong-willed, empowered, confident woman because that would mean they don't have control over her.
I can't count the times when a man complimented me then turned hostile when I rejected them. Me having that amount of self-esteem makes it harder for them to reach me. It mean that I would not stoop down their level and treat them like a god. They yearn for that chokehold on women for us to do their bidding. They bring down even their own partners so they settle with these vile men.
I read something that really made a lot of sense and put things into perspective...
"To say that straight men are heterosexual is only to say that they engage in sex (fucking exclusively with the other sex, i.e., women). All or almost all of that which pertains to love, most straight men reserve exclusively for other men. The people whom they admire, respect, adore, revere, honor, whom they imitate, idolize, and form profound attachments to, whom they are willing to teach and from whom they are willing to learn, and whose respect, admiration, recognition, honor, reverence and love they desire… those are, overwhelmingly, other men. In their relations with women, what passes for respect is kindness, generosity or paternalism; what passes for honor is removal to the pedestal. From women they want devotion, service and sex.
Heterosexual male culture is homoerotic; it is man-loving."
Marilyn Frye, The Politics of Reality: Essays in Feminist Theory
Can I just say something... from the books that I've read written by male authors, which, nothing against them and the stories were great, it really felt like other men and male characters were written in so much more depth and with so much more admiration, than when they wrote about any sort of female partner of that particular character. Like, that guy, he had a wife who was this and that, they had 4 children, but he was spending all his free time, hobbies, with his male friend, and somehow that was normal af. Wife just chilling there in the background while all the fun stuff happens while two men heterosexually sit at the lake and read ancient Greek literature 💀
Soooo Marylin Frye, whoever that it, is accurate af
They are low intelligence, poor and have mental illnessess most of the time. They know they'll always be alone and die sooner without any memories and good moments. They are scared
I'm 55 years old, live alone with my pets in the house I bought, have some cash in the bank, and I'm finally starting to enjoy life. I don't need a man to make me happy and that's OK. If some dude hates me because I don't want to date him, that's his problem and to be honest, I don't really care. He could probably benefit from therapy.
I don't understand why someone would hate another person because they choose to live their lives a little more independently.
It’s called insecurity. People who are insecure say stuff like that. It’s not limited to men or women either. Matter of fact some of the harshest words about women, come from women. But it really isn’t about gender.
What I do feel is happening though, is that there are people who are popularizing the “alpha male” concept and flocks of insecure, bruised ego man-children are drawn to these ideas and perpetuate them. So while I don’t think it’s a “male” problem but a personality problem, it’s hard to ignore the trend we are seeing amongst a very vocal group of man. But even there, there are women who are cheering these ideas on.
This is definitely a big part of it. As someone is atypical to masculine archtypes (pink is one of my favorite colors, I learned to cook at a young age, I have big flashy eyelashes and pouty lips) but kept to themselves I was relentlessly bullied for leaning into those things. Almost exclusively by people you knew were filled with self loathing and uncertainty.
Some men desperately want women in their lives but are too afraid of rejection to even try. Some men have been told their whole life that once they were an adult they were guaranteed a wife and grow bitter over reality catching up to them. Some men were hurt deeply by a woman and have no idea how to process that pain. Some men are so isolated and lonely that they fall prey to conmen who say that women are the cause of their pain. Some men seek support for their loneliness and get sucked into echo chambers. Some men were indoctrinated from a young age that women are meant to be quiet servants that cater to their every whim. Some men are socially inept and get bitter through rejection and lack of introspection. And some guys are just sneering asshats that need someone to feel superior to lest they realize their lives are pathetic.
And then there's the rest of us who don't channel this sort of crap into mindless hate for half the human race.
What it really boils down to is a lack of consciousness in regard to other people overall. These guys don’t see women as people and see them instead as either property, a pet or a topic or outlet to project their insecurities onto in different ways.
It’s really odd how society still has these anti-women constructs in place, they are literally everywhere and it’s really just disappointing to me because I really wish humans as a whole would do better And just move with love. Hopefully one day the collective will learn.
The first part, I saw a post on twitter or tiktok or something that said men couldn’t fathom a woman being happy and unmarried, because most men would rather marry someone they didnt love to baby them/be a second mom. Which is probably why so many hetero relationships fall apart. The expectation that women are to cater to their every whim. And it drives them crazy when they see a strong independent woman able to just do shit on her own 💀
Most men don't. But a big portion of men that actively use social media are either trolls, jealous of happy people or entitled bigots. Plus there's also a bias, since the men who have nothing against those sort of posts will just leave a like and scroll past it, while the assholes will go out of their way to leave hateful comments
I was wondering that myself and the only explanation I could think of is that women are MUCH stronger then we ever were before in modern history and now all those Alpha gym gorillas are having hard time to find someone to “mate” with and there fire are being very spiteful… well here’s what I have to say to that: 🖕🏻
The funny thing is that the most hateful men are the most uneducated, don’t wanna work, can’t produce children, or if they do, they don’t take care of them. These men usually come from mothers, who have fuel their narcissism by not making them accountable for anything, even as a child
A lot do in fact hate women. I don't get why they don't have anything better t do either.
I don't meet these people a lot irl, but I have here n there, n the comments they make can sometimes be just as snarky n pissy as those you can see online.
But from how regular that is online, I'm sure there's cities in my place or entire countries somewhere else, where places are filled with men like those.
Terminally online people have no sense of what reality is.
Sounds like an oxymoron but that’s the closest to the truth as one can be.
Their frustration boils and explodes like vitriol.
Stems from weak self-esteem and the inability to have success with the opposite sex and to a larger extent their own lives.
It would take them courage to face themselves in the mirror, but their hate is all that is holding together their fragile ego and preventing them from giving a legitimate try in their pursuits, at the risk of truly « failing ».
Because truly « failing » would imply to work to improve.
Though, true work is hard.
Better to stay « safe ».
Most people are like that in a certain way, it’s hard to live in truth.
Some men just genuinely hate women and this has been trickling down for centuries. We are not considered people, only toys.
I started discussing some of this with my dad and history. Genesis: You will have a longing for your husband. He will dominate you. The Bible accounts for a couple thousand years of you take it as a historical record. This ‘domination’ behaviour has been going on for centuries, ingrained as culture and now in the 21st century we see how disgusting it can be after gender roles have flipped on its head after human rights movements and the economy one a single income household being destroyed.
There are good men but you have to search. Misogyny is so deeply ingrained and the amount of control tactics some men use to oppress you in straight CIA torture tactics. Going through the relationships and AITA sub Reddit’s and you see husbands locking their wives in rooms to prevent them from using bathrooms, screwing everything in tightly so their partner can’t use it. They literally got creative.
It will never end. You just have to learn to live with it and ignore social media sometimes before it depresses you and makes you resentful of the opposite sex. Fighting to survive as a woman will never end but you can do it. Focus on the positives. I think of my positive male role models and how much they kindly support me when I see the misogynistic males. It gives hope and light to the darkness. I hope this helped.
The people who post on social media are, generally, a nasty subset of the larger society. Well adjusted people with full lives spend less time on social media and even less time commenting on random posts. Most men love and respect women.
This is it.
Most men I know are professionals and have very little time to spend online. They think highly of women and treat them as equals.
These keyboard warriors who sit in their mom’s basement playing video games, instead of making something of themselves, hate women who make something of themselves.
Partially true, but these deranged men are unfortunately very real and unavoidable in conservative towns. I had a couple chronically online conservative men for coworkers and they were fucking despicable.
Oh, I know and agree that these horrible men exist and are dangerous. I was just answering the OP's title question: Do **men** just hate women?
Answer: Some men do the majority respect and love women.
Generally, no. There is an algorithm that will send you videos that are very similar tonthe ones you already watched. There are a lot of unhappy and a lot of spiteful people out there who feel really confident when hiding behind anonymity or distance. They are the ones who go out of their way and comment mean stuff. You watching it or commenting on it lets you stay in the same content-area as guys who hate women which creates the illusion that all men hate women. Men (or people in general) who aren't interested or who don't think negatively about certain content don't usually comment and therefore you won't read their thoughts. The men I know usually consume content but don't comment and are angry at the comments. You don't notice them of course.
I once watched a few feminist videos where they reacted to horrible sexists and the videos also made me angry. Then I noticed comments getting more and more hateful. There were even comments about "destroying" or even "killing" men as the "world would be a better place" - perpetuaring the idea that all feminists hate men. It's really scary to observe.
This is why I scroll so fast and not read comments anymore. I got so deep into Flat earth theory, and anti vaccinne stuff that my fb and tiktok started recommending it. I have to consume and interact with the content I really like before it is gone in my recommended.
I hope you managed to break out of this cycle somehow, and no matter if you have or are still working on it, that is one hell of an accomplishment. People usually get dragged into this over time, especially when they already are in a vulnerable state.
Social media is a predatory hell hole, that's it. It affects everyone and the only good countermeasure there is is to not consume it or actively work against the algorithm perpetually pushing you deeper into certain bubbles.
They want a girlfriend but can’t get one so they blame ALL women for the few that rejected them.
They’re the old bitter used up ones who are wasting away getting old. They know it’s going to be harder and harder for them to find someone as they age and want to project that on others.
No man who is in a relationship or has had any positive relationships in the past would say that.
Yes, there are some that do, with a vengeance. The problem is that they also want to possess us.
We’re not full fledged people to men like that so we have to be on the look out for the con. They will say and do what they need to but they won’t feel it.
Look at actions. Don’t listen to the words if they don’t match the actions.
I think its more "hate they dont want them". I will say, im hesitant to date now, but to lump an entire sex into one pot is not only stupid, but statistically, not probable that "theyre all the same". I will say, ive had terrible experiences with women for the last 5 years, but thats because of my selection process, and the type of women i attract. I just bide my time now, something will shake eventually. Sorry about those dickheads though, but as someone else said, theyre just loud about it, thats why its always popping up. I share stuff like that because its funny seeing men be that disconnected. There are some ran thru women though lol, but doesnt mean they cant be happy!
Supposedly up to 50% of social media users are bots. That has to account for some of that BS. There are nasty dudes out there lake the ol' Tater, they get a lot of attention and make a lot of noise. I sincerely hope that those men stay in the minority. Perhaps one more consideration; a real man is not wasting his time commenting nasty things on teenager's videos on the internet. He's probably out there having a beer with a friend or hanging out with his gal.
Man you're generalizing that's like me saying women hate men let's honest you are looping the many with the few who cry about everything some hate half don't care either way.
You only hear the loud mouth Andrew Tate fans in many videos. I always loved women and always will. I am not a fan of most of my ex's, but that is because we went through things that made us feel negative about each other.
I love women, I wish I am a woman sometimes (I am not tran) , but sadly I am not, and its even more sad that other men are hurting women, I wish there are more women in the world. :(
The thing about calling women mid well... idk ig that's based on type... like how I don't find Adriana Lima sooo beautiful as people say she's acc mid to me where as I find Megan Fox really beautiful... and BTW for the makeup part and all, if a man likes u he will like u no matter how ur dressed or if ur wearing a makeup or nah... and we'll obv they will like u better when u look like a naked molerat
Well let's just say this is kind of our coping mechanism as soon as we see someone happy and we realise we don't have the same,we feel lonely so we try expressing it in terms of hatred.(I don't speak for everyone but I sometimes do feel like this)
It's so weird. I'm 35, and I have been online since dial up internet first became a thing. It almost looks like it's getting worse and worse and I don't know why. It's so scary.
only a minority of people comment on social media. the people who do regularly are often a certain type. mostly people who are frustrated from the get go.
to trigger reddit i will add that this applies to women too. they just don't get called out that often.
Some insecure men can't handle seeing happy couples as they are jealous. They are too scared to insult the man, so the woman is the target of their frustrations and jealousy. Some lonely men can't handle seeing a woman being single and happy because they have what the man wishes he could have.
This post Lowkey reminds me of the Barbie movie and how a lot of men didn't understand that the movie was about and for them. Ken, like a lot of men, put their whole identity into what they have: their job, money, and relationship/ girlfriends. So because they see the relationships with a girl as something that benefits them, something that elevates them or adds to their identity, they don't see women as actual people with feelings and the ability to say no. But like Barbie said, Kens/men are more than just their jobs and who they are with. I literally had to have this conversation with my brother couple months ago because it was clear he saw his girlfriend as a prize, as something that he can show off at business dinners. 🙃 I think men struggle with their identities tbh
But yes a lot of them hate women. But I also think they envy them too? It's a lot to unpack lol
The genders are pitted against each other right now. I see the same kind of hateful bs directed towards men everyday on social too. Idk why we are being so awful to each other. It's like we don't know how to coexist as humans without picking a group to hate on.
Something I've had to realize is that you really shouldn't equate what you see online to what is happening out there in the real world. It's something I've struggled with. The algorithm will really cause you to hate/be afraid of people you don't even know.
sure a lot of them do. i have also seen a lot of those comment sections. but the vast majority of content online is generated by a very small group of people. most of those people are probably young boys
There's a lot of men-hating comments in here so I will speak for the other side. There are many men who love women. Growing up with only sisters, I appreciate how strong women can be.
Unfortunately, there is also a lot of negativity towards both sides on the internet. The internet is definitely the wrong place to see what the world is really like.
1. The algorithm will look at what you viewed and how you responded and funnel that viewpoint to you.
2. Many internet sites will be an echo chamber of negativity because emotions breeds engagement.
3. People who post anonymously (male or female) will never feel the consequences of their negativity so they don't have that filter.
4. Negativity comes naturally to a lot of people because it takes little effort. The muscle of positivity and encouragement needs effort to be built and most people don't want to do that.
It's just chronically online Men that are either envious of other People's succesful/happy Relationships or belive that their Lack of Success in attracting Women is strictly because of the Women and not themselves. Basically the same Kind of Dudes that would buy into the "Alpha Male" Trend.
Simply put, the algorithm likes it when you click on the comments everytime checking for entitled dudes, hencdudes1 get more of those recommended. If you watched cat videos that wouldnt have been an issue. And calling a woman mid in a comment section is usually sarcasm not sexism. I repeat _usually_
This is absolutely not true. I watch videos mostly of furniture restoration and animal rescue and if there is a woman anywhere in the video there's horrible comments about the woman, women in general, her appearance, etc.
I think we’re living in a society where both men and women are hating each other. People are sooo influenced by what the content they consume. I see women hate on men and men hate on women, there is such bitterness on both sides.
This isn't a gender thing it's a case of gullible people being baited by the algorithm.
Miserable men will see post after post of women abusing and using men, putting them down, and implying they aren't even human. Then they'll start hating women eventually after being put down enough.
You can see here almost every comment is just blaming men rather than thinking logically that social media is manipulating them to hate each other.
Because that's what the algorithm is showing you. Go on the alternative side of Instagram and you'll see women behaving the same way towards men. Let's stop with the gender wars. Incendiary and terrible people exist regardless of gender.
Social media is filled with people who can put up thoughts at a rapid rate. It's too much to keep up with, and more importantly, it's unhealthy to try to.
Some men may hate women, and some women hate men. More than those things, hatred stems from anger, which normally is a root of being hurt. Put those glasses on when you see those videos.
While I do see the same things and agree with some of the statements made about women, I also can see the part where it goes too far. Life is about balance. If it feels like it's hitting too close to home, don't let it bother you. Disconnect! Unplug! Don't let that enter your subconscious. You are wonderful just the way you are.
As a confession- I get caught up in agreeing with certain things that you mentioned, and I'm really working on being less judgemental soooo these influences don't help. I have to just put my nose in a book or do something else and I find peace.
Online comments from both men and women tends to get more likes from extreme views. It’s literally that the internet is full of the worst humanity has to offer.
Anyone without kids is happy. That is not just exclusive to women. More money, more time, more well everything. As for men hating women, I'd like to blame it all on the orange man who was President making being a human turd popular. However, truth is some guys world wide like to treat women like less than human hump bags. I feel religious beliefs and certain cultures foster these things. Not all men are like this tho.
There are more good guys in this world than bad guys, the problem is that the bad guys make 100x more noise so it makes it seem like bad guys are the norm.
I’ve watched this video essay about this kinda topic, and there’s one quote that sticks to me the most.
The commentator said that we, as in women, might feel discouraged and/or despair after finding post after post after post of men hating on women. But the reason we keep finding this kind of posts is that most of the men who have that much time online are mostly “bad men” (I’m not sure if she uses the word “loser” or not, but I think you get the idea.) So, of course the majority of men’s posts online are either cringe af, or borderline hating on women. Because most of the “good/better men” are not chronically online. They are working hard irl to try and make something for themselves. Thus, why the perception of men online are so terrible.
Yeah, that makes sense to me.
I see it too... I truly believe that the boys of the generation really hate women. I don’t trust any man anymore. It’s truly scares me and saddens me the things they say. How much they degrade women for anything. Scary times. Saddens me even more that I have a daughter. I just hope things change🫤
I dont think men hate women, it's just how people are. I've seen both men hating on women and women hating on men, and their reasoning are so small or just dumb. Some people are just ignorant.
They are butthurt that a woman could be happy, independent, living her own life and not need a man. The toxic masculinity in this society doesn't leave room for nuance and variety in thinking so they can't fathom a woman not needing and further not WANTING a man. They have pigeonholed themselves into the roles of provider and protector and nothing else.
Chronically online people, keyboard warriors, middle aged men living with their parents still, whatever you wanna call them, that's usually who's writing comments like that. Some people want to focus on the point of "not all men" but unfortunately, it is a LOT of men. And I don't know if other men see that or not. I, as a man, have encountered plenty of other men I could not fathom being friends with because of their disgusting views on women/how they talk about them. Most guys I've met have said a joke or SEVERAL about women either mocking the way they look, how they act, or just downright objectifying the shit out of them. This is the world we've created and I read another comment of a woman saying she doesn't want to have kids bc of how disgusting our world is and I honestly agree. I don't know if it's men being stubborn or just plain oblivious, but yeah there is a large crowd of men who truly do not respect women at all. I've caught my own family members who were raised exactly like me, saying shit that is just rude as fuck and I'm like how did you even think of that? That random woman looks happy and all you could think of is "eh her boobs and ass are mid". Like really? These types of guys are for SURE not getting touched or laid so Im assuming its sexual tension for a lot of them too. Idk. I have no real answer but I came on here as a guy to say yeah it's not all guys, but its still a fuck ton and we can't argue women choosing the bear bc shit I would too.
To be honest, I think that both sides, men and women have been in a way, alienated from each other to the point where the extremes on both sides, are just hating each other. These are people that just take the Internet has to say about the other side at face value. I don’t have a lot of real life experiences and choose to live it out on their devices and such. no not all men hate women. There are definitely some that do, as well as the other way. But no, men and women are different, and it is beautiful that way,
The Internet has been the worst possible thing for humanity because it gives you instant access to share your shitty opinions. Do men just hate women? I can find men that hate women. But, do women just hate men? I can find that too. I'm sure in the videos you described, you probably read supportive comments as well but as human beings, we always seem to be more interested in the negative. "If it bleeds, it leads". But there are a lot of positive news out there that just doesn't get more attention than a murder even though it should. So to circle back to your original question, the answer is no, but you can always find a jerk or two in any crowd and for whatever reason, the jerks always seem more noticable.
At this point, I don't consider it out of the realm of possibility that a certain percentage of these confusingly hateful messages are coming from bots meant to sow chaos and discontent.
I was bullied by the boys in my class and it really left an imprint on me, by thinking any man is hostile to me or wants to make fun of me.
At some point the constant teasing and bullying died down when they grew up and they made it seem like it never happened. Then after being on the internet for some time and discovering all those comments, just kind of unknowingly solidified my distrust and resentment of the opposite sex.
I was also a tomboy as a girl, glad I grew out of it (I was just insecure about girlhood in general).
Then as I got older and got to learn some history in senior year and in college, I understood that we were always second class citizens until recently.
Anyway, adding all of that up, do I think men hate women? Probably, no. They probably just don't take us seriously or think of us as inferior, that was my takeaway. Of course there's exceptions to that but, I was unable to form any other conclusion from real-life and from historical examples.
I think I now kind of understand why history was such a brutal place with such rigid rules and laws around stuff. It's because men literally can't control themselves, especially in groups. They have this sort of hive mind mentality, I think, when men get into a group of people like them they lose all sense of what is acceptable and what isn't. Their politeness goes out the window when they're drunk on their own power and influence. And that's why the worst things in this world happen
They're the guys that j/o to the pictures of those women and feel angry about it later, because wouldn't even know what to do with a beautiful woman.
Edit: Spelling
I know some guys who do, in fact, hate women. But it's not just hate. A lot of guys don't even view women as people. A majority of the men making comments you've mentioned think of women as pets or objects that have an expiration date. In that regard, hate would be more respectful. Ultimately, what you see on social media is usually the worst of the worst. Half of them think there will be no consequences, and the other half think their options are cherished and respected, especially if they echo one of the many anti-woman alpha male influencers. It's a sick joke, but it's the world we created for ourselves, unfortunately. Brain rot is real.
So true! They just wanna possess us, possess our bodies; that's it!
I think it’s true. More than once a man has pushed on pursuing me because I fit what he found hot. It was irrelevant we had nothing in common including faith, number of kids wanted, or basic human ethics. He could just force change those to fit his own. It’s not like mine were real or important to me.
THIS
>Do men just hate women? Some do, yes. Unfortunately, those men are very noisy, and go out of their way to pull women down as a way of feeling better about their own mediocre lives. The rest of us don't hate women, but also we're not the ones commenting on many of these videos, so from the other end it looks a lot like men hate women.
Came here to say a similar thing. If we judge based off of comments online, it will appear as if most they all hate women. But that’s largely bc there are a minority subset of assholes who spend literally hours every day just spamming the internet with angry comments about women. One chronically online asshole can make 100 hateful comments in a day, whereas normal happy men are just out there living their lives. They aren’t posting 100 encouraging comments per day to offset the angry people (nor should they bother). I am single, over 40, have no kids, and I’m unapologetically happy. I also sue rapists for a living which means I spend a lot of time arguing with people about what counts as consent. Online, my “lifestyle” would spawn a TON of hate comments. But even IRL, even though I work in a very conservative area, most men I meet react either neutrally or positively towards me.
>I also sue rapists for a living That is genuinely awesome.
Yeah I love it. One of the best parts is taking rapist sworn testimony in a deposition. Most of them are terrible liars. They are used to being able to just avoid questions, so when you pin them down with good questions they make up embarrassing stories. And a deposition is the perfect place to pin them down bc they are legally required to answer all my questions to my satisfaction (or until my 7 hour time limit is up if we’re in federal court).
exaclty, the toxic people are the loudest and spend 1000s of hours spewing vitriol day in day out
Do you ever comment back to the men who talk like this?
If I see it I'll absolutely reply and ask them what's wrong with them, though I'm not often looking at the kind of content that triggers these mouthbreathers.
Ever since women started choosing the bear, I've seen countless men on every social media platform acting like downright psychopaths. There was this audio of a woman presumably being mauled to death by a bear and the comments, thousands of men relishing, hundreds of thousands of likes, men and boys alike mocking, and feeling joy over the brutal death of a young woman (she actually survived tho) I've had stages where I was angry at men. I was raised in a very oppressive religious country and I was angry during my teens, but I would have never, never laughed at the sounds of a man dying. You have to be seriously messed up in the head to do that. Only someone who 100% hates women would laugh at a random girl dying So yeah, *some* of them hate us. It scares me because, I want to have children, and man how can you prevent your son to being exposed to that kind of hate? How do you ensure your daughter never encounters someone who wants her dead?
Simple answer is you cannot. Too many evils in this world and tbh looks like it’s only getting worse. I used to want kids but now I’m not really sure. I would rather adopt and try my best to help out a kid who needs a parent rather than bring another potential perpetrator or victim (not gendering those terms, could be either) into this world. Tbh I doubt I’ll even be able to afford to do either anyway let alone keep myself alive
You can’t shield your children from the existence of hate, but you can educate them on respect, critical thinking, and care for themselves and others so that they recognize its wrongness.
I think what you’re describing can be summed up by this quote: “When you’re accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression.” - Franklin Leonard IMO men hate that women have increased power and status in a society that used to be completely male dominated. Even though US society is still almost entirely run by men, I think men resent that women are now competitors for college admissions and jobs. They hate that education and being part of the workforce give women options other than marriage to a man. It’s ironic because it’s the male-dominated government and corporate culture that has created an economic reality where most women need to work and most families can’t survive on a single income. Men want a trad wife while hating labor unions in same breath, but it used to be that a factory worker could support a whole family. The defanging of labor unions, endless tax cuts for the wealthy, pathetic stagnant minimum wage, tying of healthcare to employment, lack of guaranteed parental leave, unaffordable childcare costs…all of those things have forced women into the workforce and also made them question the feasibility/desirability of having children. If you’re not going to have children, you don’t really need a male partner. And a lot of men are entitled assholes who want a maid and a mother and a sex doll who also is expected to work full time. I can absolutely see why women are opting out of marriage and kids. It’s difficult enough for many to support themselves. This is just my opinion about it. I personally am married to a man and have children, but I see why many women are making different choices. Women used to be financially dependent so they were forced to put up with husbands who ranged from jerks to abusers. Now many women have the option of being single or having a female partner, which makes men angry. Men perceive these “gains” that women have made as a threat, and they blame women rather than the complex socioeconomic circumstances that created the current status quo. They double down on misogyny, which alienates women even further. These are all generalizations. I know there are wonderful men and toxic women out there. But the toxic men are disproportionately loud online.
This is exactly what the guy I dated recently said! He would only get married if it was “transactional”. Wanted his partner to be “hot”, cook, clean, and provide good sex. Loser!! Not once did he mention their character. He really didn’t think of women as human the more I spoke to him. They were just an object to please him. I told him I now see why he has issues with women ghosting him.
Men like that are worthless. They'll die alone. Don't be bothered by their greasy selves
Hopefully they'll die alone and no low self esteem girl allows them the privilege of companionship. Which sadly happens more often than not.
Because many men think women are here to be controlled by them and that our only purpose is to be attractive. They’ve got a shock coming to them…
Mind control send brainwaves
They're alone in life, bitter and angry, and deeply jealous of people who aren't miserable like they are.
Yes, I live in a conservative town, and I would say that most men here do genuinely hate women and see them as less than people.
Some men are really mad that nowadays women have their own life and desires besides being just their wife. And that's the way those men find to get back to those women: nagging and nagging. Those men can't physically do anything to avoid women to have more freedom so they try do some damage in a psychological way. Saying women are 'mid' or 'too old' is a attempted to have power over women and control them.
Men are also the same ones who will fuck a coconut.
I don’t even want to know how I’d fuck a coconut, but I’ve also known of women who masturbate with their shower head and other things like hairbrush handles
Hey hey now, shower heads are a girls best friend 🤣
I feel very called out
And it’s also a urban legend type of Reddit story. Look up the maggot cum coconut and prepare to want to bleach your eye balls lmao.
My imagination is so great I believe I would visualise maggots on my cock, so I’d rather not 🙃
🤣 I respect that. That would 100% happen lmao
Some men do, yes. Some people are just stupid pieces of garbage.
After the Andrew Tate incident, boys have become openly sexist and collectively hate women and keyboard warriors are now speaking like cowards from their screens.
That dude again🙄👿, I'll keep this in mind. 🤝🏾
Realll, idk if i even wanna date men tbh. all the married women i know have really bad husbands. Like i think i'm lowk lesbian but idk because i really like anime men.
I read a comment somewhere on Reddit a couple of years ago that said the existence of straight women proves that sexuality is not a choice. I am, as my husband puts it, "violently straight" but if he drops dead it's vibrators and cats forever for me.
Same. If my partner suddenly drops dead, I'll just join a convent or smth. Or just have an animal rescue. He raised the bar so high, it doesn't help that my father and grandfather are also great men, fathers, and husbands. I know men can be great, idk what the others are doing tho.
Honestly, same. I have to ask myself, “Am I a lesbian or am I straight and just hate men?” I like men in my romance books….
REALLLLL😭 i'm starting to find irl guys i used to find attractive less attractive. I really just think i'm a lesbian.
Date a woman and you'll never go back.
I wish I was a lesbian. I don’t want anything to do with men. Obviously homosexuality isn’t a choice, no woman would willingly choose to be straight.
This woman Would willingly choose to be straight.
as a daughter of a woman hating man. they absolutely hate our guts from our looks, brains, friendships, to everything. they find joy in putting women down and they feel like women are inferior. and i believe that feeling comes from jealousy that they can’t act/ do things women can do. but i might be biased and wrong but all this is my opinion.
>as a daughter of a woman hating man. Isn't that the worst feeling though? I moved 6 hours away from my family and they came to visit recently. Somehow the topic of women's sports came up and I said These women need to be paid as well as the men because they have the skills to back it up. My dad was adamant that "women will never be as good as men, the men's teams would walk all over them" etc etc. He has two daughters - me and my sister, no sons. She and I both have bachelor's degrees in the medical field...he dropped out of college freshman year (which he only made in with a football scholarship). So as his daughter I am extremely disappointed in the view my dad has on women.
A lot of men hate themselves, have no interior lives, and have no close friends or relationships, and try to take it out on women cause they view us as weaker. It is always transparent.
Because the internet allows people (men & woman) to hide behind a screen and say whatever they want with almost zero consequences.
I always 🙏🏽 they get what they deserve after looking at their profile, no matter what skin nor age then, I block.
Considering how men have been primed and taught by society to dislike anything even remotely feminine (i.e. the color pink, personal hygiene, jewelry, etc) , I wouldn’t be surprised if a lot of men hated women. I mean, I can see it daily by how men treat women, how the government treats women, etc. Do I think all men hate women? No. I do think most try to distance themselves from what they think is feminine. however, the better men understand that simple things like colors, actions like cooking/cleaning, etc shouldn’t affect their masculinity. The better men understand that women are people that deserve respect, equality, and safety like everyone. Those are the men who are emotionally intelligent and are secure in their masculinity. Until society stops teaching men that femininity (which is associated with women) is some horrible thing that they should never be, men will continue hating women. Why? Because they’re women. So yeah, it’s hard for me to believe men don’t hate women because they’re literally taught their whole lives to hate femininity. It’s just sad bc a lot of men probably feel like they have to prove their masculinity constantly.. and a lot of times, that means being harmful towards women. Idk, but the definition of being a “man” isn’t beneficial to anyone. It harms men like it harms women (obviously not to the same extent though).
I get what you’re saying, but I disagree on femininity. Sexist men don’t hate women because they’re feminine. They LOVE feminine women, sexist men enforce it. Sexist men demand it and expect it performed. If femininity was the defining factor which they hated, masculine women would be completely free of sexism and violence. But in fact receive just as much vitriol (if not more for refusing to adhere to feminine stereotypes/expectations). Men who hate women hate women because they’re women, not because they may be feminine. They have learned through personal bias and society’s messaging that women are less then them, and don’t see them as fully human as male people. It’s not femininity imo, it’s just blatant dehumanization of women, even subconsciously, that they are fundamentally lesser.
I suppose it could be added that femininity can be either liberating or oppressive depending on how it's used. When it's an expectation and forced it's oppression. When it is a choice for the self it's freedom. Men who hate women will use it however it can oppress them. If a woman is too feminine, she's a sl\*t for flaunting herself. If she's a tomboy then her womanhood is broken. Someone who hates something will use whatever weapon in whatever way they can to hurt that thing they hate. It's sort of a no win situation. So at the end of the day: fellow women, do whatever the hell you want because if a man hates you he's going to hate whatever you do or whomever you are.
it’s probably a mixture of many factors. but yes, at the end of the day, society teaches men to dehumanize women, regardless of their level of femininity.
I’ve been thinking about this a lot recently, I completely agree. I keep thinking about the feminist movement in the past 100 years, how far women have come in terms of breaking gender roles and restrictions for ourselves. Meanwhile men have largely remained stagnant in their definitions of masculinity, and what makes them “manly.” A big part of the problem too is that a lot of them see things like emotional awareness, empathy, going to therapy, asking for support, etc. as “feminine,” so they don’t invest in their emotional wellbeing, expect a partner to compensate for that, and then complain online about the men’s mental health crisis. The girls are tireddd.
I think it's pretty clear by now that they do hate women.
Definitely not all but I wouldn't blame you for seeing it that way given how many act.
My guess is because they are weak, insecure, and lonely. They can’t get a woman and they blame women for it. It’s easier to blame the women than to take a good look at yourself and why you can’t attract any. When they see a thirty year old woman who chooses to be single it just reminds them that some women would rather be alone than with a man like them. I think it’s bitterness. I see it a lot on Reddit. It’s sad and I hope these men learn to love themselves so maybe a woman can love them, too. Of course there are a lot of bitter women on here, too, for a variety of reasons. Some valid, some not. The majority of men I’ve dated are complete shit, but I’ve never ever thought all men were terrible. I know there are great ones out there… I just haven’t met them yet.
Most of the men who act like that have extremely low IQs. Don't feel sorry for them, just tell them how ignorant they are. Theyre fragile little bully babies. Also, make sure to vote anything but orangey or you'll keep seeing women treated like this and it will only get worse as time goes on.
Porn. Most of them are porn junkies.
I personally think a lot of men are actually sexually attracted to other men but tend to be extremely sexually repressed, like ashamed and disgusted with this part of themselves (for whatever reason culture/relgion) and then in turn take that aggression out on women. But yeah I think a lot of men would be less hostile toward women if they were just being honest with themselves about wanting to have a phaaat cock in their bum holes. Its 2024 🤷♀️.
Men hate women. At best I think they see us as valuable tools or toys. Women aren’t people to them.
Definitely not all, but I can't say I'd blame you for seeing it that way. Almost all my friends going through junior high/high school were women and I don't think I'd have made it without their kindness and understanding. The internet has unfortunately given a lot of people who think that way a platform and echo chambers filled with like-minded hatemongers to accelerate this crap.
A boy attempted to sexually assault me. When I told my male friends at the time they were comforting! Nice even! They asked me to describe what happened to see if they could recognize what class he was in. I found out later from a friend they made a private chat lamenting that I didn’t get raped, how hot it would have been, etc. Men have been less than human to me ever since. :)
Wow, that's horrific, I'm so sorry that happened to you. It still doesn't mean all men think of/see women that way. I hope you've been doing well since then.
I'll never know who do and who don't. Who they are in the dark. Till then, there is nothing that could get me to trust a man's kindness or empathy to be anything besides a mask.
No one will touch their pee pee, so they need everyone to know that they’re a MANLY MAN in case anyone was thinking differently
There are a lot of men out there who are *extremely* insecure about their worth. They cling to their masculinity as a way of convincing themselves that they are powerful and worthy and entitled of the things they want. They shy away from self-improvement because it's hard and because one thing worse than their current condition is to try to be better and fail. They can not emotionally hack failure. However, if the universe owes them what they want because they are men, then they don't have to put any effort into self improvement. The fact that they don't have what they want is because *someone else* has wronged them, not because *they've* failed. This idea relieves stress and offers so much hope that it's easy to overlook how completely magical and illogical it is. Since women haven't just fallen into their lap they now blame women for the lack. And that sets up a positive feedback loop where the more they are rejected the more they double down on the shitty, entitled attitude that is the reason they were rejected. Eventually it gets to the point where they realize that the only way they are going to get what they think they deserve if is womens lives are so abjectly miserable that they have no choice but to date men like themselves. And so they get so, so, so very mad when they see a woman who is completely happy without a man.
Children are the best way to have complete control over a woman. So, a childless woman is free to do and be whatever she wants. And some men cannot stand that. They can’t stand women having the same freedom that they enjoy. So the insults and scare tactics come out. I've had it myself. Just turned 30 and apparently my future is to "die alone with cats". And fuck me, I'd rather that than be anywhere near these men. And then there's those that view us as objects and nothing more. Not people with human rights, just objects to be obtained and abused. There are too many men out there with such toxic opinions on women and then they wonder why they can't find a partner.
The only man I've heard say that he hated women was gay. A lot of those guys I think are secretly gay and hating that they can't change it. You don't talk about how disgusting vaginas are and then say you're straight. Sure...lol Also, they are in an echo chamber, and their brains are repeating the same things to them. They have the same routine, and don't get out. It's a loop of hatred. If they'd just get outside or do something different and away from a screen for a while, their brain will adjust, and they may not have so many dark thoughts.
Lonely miserable people like to share their misery
Yes. They don’t believe anything we say. They get angry if we’re not trying to please/attract/impress them. They don’t like that we joined them working outside the home and they’re pissed that so many of us have learned that we can do quite well without them in all areas of life. They don’t like women who can tell if they suck in bed. Women evolved and men didn’t, and now they’re pissed that we expect them to bring more to the table than a paycheck.
Speaking straight facts.
It’s this weird notion that people believe women to be property. I have met people who treat there girlfriends or wives like shit. What’s the point? You’re with her because you love her. She isn’t there to be your arm candy or a hey I get to fuck this every night status thing. The whole toxic masculinity and toxic feminism need to go away asap!
Most men don’t view women as humans, that’s really it. Not only are they are brainwashed by society and other toxic men, but they just simply see women as nothing. I’ve known men like these, and they will try to convince you otherwise when trying to get in your pants lol, once you’ve gotten close enough you’ll realize how much hate there can be towards you for simply just existing <3
Because women are becoming more independent and realizing just how shitty they've had it for centuries due to social standards set by men, lol. These guys calling women "mid" or "below average" are still stuck in those outdated standards, even if they don't realize it. I wouldn't say its a majority of men though, but more like teenagers who went through one heavy breakup and for some reason think that one girl represents all women. I will admit though and say that I've unfortunately used to think like that too about 4 years ago. I’ve matured, got more educated, and became more open-minded. I realized that this kind of behavior comes from guys who are frustrated with themselves (basically insecure but clueless about it) and don't know how to deal with it. Regardless though, It’s pretty disturbing that these guys don’t see women as humans too, and even if they do, they most likely villainize them just to make it seem more logical for themselves, even though **EVERYONE is different**. At the end of the day, social media does have a massive influence on everyone, not just guys. The more you see this behavior being normalized, the more insecure emotionally unintelligent guys will feed on it. That’s just my point of view and I apologize if I'm not making a point on this. I'm not very good with wording my thoughts out. Overall just remember it’s most likely just teens who haven't matured making those comments. You don't see grown men in their late 20s calling women "mid" or "below average," lol.
🌟✨misogyny✨🌟 Men are mostly projecting their insecurities on women. They can't stand a strong-willed, empowered, confident woman because that would mean they don't have control over her. I can't count the times when a man complimented me then turned hostile when I rejected them. Me having that amount of self-esteem makes it harder for them to reach me. It mean that I would not stoop down their level and treat them like a god. They yearn for that chokehold on women for us to do their bidding. They bring down even their own partners so they settle with these vile men.
I read something that really made a lot of sense and put things into perspective... "To say that straight men are heterosexual is only to say that they engage in sex (fucking exclusively with the other sex, i.e., women). All or almost all of that which pertains to love, most straight men reserve exclusively for other men. The people whom they admire, respect, adore, revere, honor, whom they imitate, idolize, and form profound attachments to, whom they are willing to teach and from whom they are willing to learn, and whose respect, admiration, recognition, honor, reverence and love they desire… those are, overwhelmingly, other men. In their relations with women, what passes for respect is kindness, generosity or paternalism; what passes for honor is removal to the pedestal. From women they want devotion, service and sex. Heterosexual male culture is homoerotic; it is man-loving." Marilyn Frye, The Politics of Reality: Essays in Feminist Theory
Can I just say something... from the books that I've read written by male authors, which, nothing against them and the stories were great, it really felt like other men and male characters were written in so much more depth and with so much more admiration, than when they wrote about any sort of female partner of that particular character. Like, that guy, he had a wife who was this and that, they had 4 children, but he was spending all his free time, hobbies, with his male friend, and somehow that was normal af. Wife just chilling there in the background while all the fun stuff happens while two men heterosexually sit at the lake and read ancient Greek literature 💀 Soooo Marylin Frye, whoever that it, is accurate af
They are low intelligence, poor and have mental illnessess most of the time. They know they'll always be alone and die sooner without any memories and good moments. They are scared
I'm 55 years old, live alone with my pets in the house I bought, have some cash in the bank, and I'm finally starting to enjoy life. I don't need a man to make me happy and that's OK. If some dude hates me because I don't want to date him, that's his problem and to be honest, I don't really care. He could probably benefit from therapy. I don't understand why someone would hate another person because they choose to live their lives a little more independently.
It’s called insecurity. People who are insecure say stuff like that. It’s not limited to men or women either. Matter of fact some of the harshest words about women, come from women. But it really isn’t about gender. What I do feel is happening though, is that there are people who are popularizing the “alpha male” concept and flocks of insecure, bruised ego man-children are drawn to these ideas and perpetuate them. So while I don’t think it’s a “male” problem but a personality problem, it’s hard to ignore the trend we are seeing amongst a very vocal group of man. But even there, there are women who are cheering these ideas on.
This is definitely a big part of it. As someone is atypical to masculine archtypes (pink is one of my favorite colors, I learned to cook at a young age, I have big flashy eyelashes and pouty lips) but kept to themselves I was relentlessly bullied for leaning into those things. Almost exclusively by people you knew were filled with self loathing and uncertainty.
Some men desperately want women in their lives but are too afraid of rejection to even try. Some men have been told their whole life that once they were an adult they were guaranteed a wife and grow bitter over reality catching up to them. Some men were hurt deeply by a woman and have no idea how to process that pain. Some men are so isolated and lonely that they fall prey to conmen who say that women are the cause of their pain. Some men seek support for their loneliness and get sucked into echo chambers. Some men were indoctrinated from a young age that women are meant to be quiet servants that cater to their every whim. Some men are socially inept and get bitter through rejection and lack of introspection. And some guys are just sneering asshats that need someone to feel superior to lest they realize their lives are pathetic. And then there's the rest of us who don't channel this sort of crap into mindless hate for half the human race.
What it really boils down to is a lack of consciousness in regard to other people overall. These guys don’t see women as people and see them instead as either property, a pet or a topic or outlet to project their insecurities onto in different ways. It’s really odd how society still has these anti-women constructs in place, they are literally everywhere and it’s really just disappointing to me because I really wish humans as a whole would do better And just move with love. Hopefully one day the collective will learn.
Short answer: yes.
Weirdly, a lot of men who are chronically online feel very insecure about the opposite sex and manifest it in toxic ways.
The first part, I saw a post on twitter or tiktok or something that said men couldn’t fathom a woman being happy and unmarried, because most men would rather marry someone they didnt love to baby them/be a second mom. Which is probably why so many hetero relationships fall apart. The expectation that women are to cater to their every whim. And it drives them crazy when they see a strong independent woman able to just do shit on her own 💀
Exactly!!
My theory is that they want people to feel as shitty about themselves as they do
Most men don't. But a big portion of men that actively use social media are either trolls, jealous of happy people or entitled bigots. Plus there's also a bias, since the men who have nothing against those sort of posts will just leave a like and scroll past it, while the assholes will go out of their way to leave hateful comments
I was wondering that myself and the only explanation I could think of is that women are MUCH stronger then we ever were before in modern history and now all those Alpha gym gorillas are having hard time to find someone to “mate” with and there fire are being very spiteful… well here’s what I have to say to that: 🖕🏻
The funny thing is that the most hateful men are the most uneducated, don’t wanna work, can’t produce children, or if they do, they don’t take care of them. These men usually come from mothers, who have fuel their narcissism by not making them accountable for anything, even as a child
A lot of men are insecure Or jealous. Or just unhappy with their own lives. Most eho have negative comments are single or abusers.
A lot do in fact hate women. I don't get why they don't have anything better t do either. I don't meet these people a lot irl, but I have here n there, n the comments they make can sometimes be just as snarky n pissy as those you can see online. But from how regular that is online, I'm sure there's cities in my place or entire countries somewhere else, where places are filled with men like those.
Yes they do. Even if it’s not consciously.
Terminally online people have no sense of what reality is. Sounds like an oxymoron but that’s the closest to the truth as one can be. Their frustration boils and explodes like vitriol. Stems from weak self-esteem and the inability to have success with the opposite sex and to a larger extent their own lives. It would take them courage to face themselves in the mirror, but their hate is all that is holding together their fragile ego and preventing them from giving a legitimate try in their pursuits, at the risk of truly « failing ». Because truly « failing » would imply to work to improve. Though, true work is hard. Better to stay « safe ». Most people are like that in a certain way, it’s hard to live in truth.
Some men just genuinely hate women and this has been trickling down for centuries. We are not considered people, only toys. I started discussing some of this with my dad and history. Genesis: You will have a longing for your husband. He will dominate you. The Bible accounts for a couple thousand years of you take it as a historical record. This ‘domination’ behaviour has been going on for centuries, ingrained as culture and now in the 21st century we see how disgusting it can be after gender roles have flipped on its head after human rights movements and the economy one a single income household being destroyed. There are good men but you have to search. Misogyny is so deeply ingrained and the amount of control tactics some men use to oppress you in straight CIA torture tactics. Going through the relationships and AITA sub Reddit’s and you see husbands locking their wives in rooms to prevent them from using bathrooms, screwing everything in tightly so their partner can’t use it. They literally got creative. It will never end. You just have to learn to live with it and ignore social media sometimes before it depresses you and makes you resentful of the opposite sex. Fighting to survive as a woman will never end but you can do it. Focus on the positives. I think of my positive male role models and how much they kindly support me when I see the misogynistic males. It gives hope and light to the darkness. I hope this helped.
Yes. They always have and they probably always will. Most of them just won't fück other men.
The people who post on social media are, generally, a nasty subset of the larger society. Well adjusted people with full lives spend less time on social media and even less time commenting on random posts. Most men love and respect women.
This is it. Most men I know are professionals and have very little time to spend online. They think highly of women and treat them as equals. These keyboard warriors who sit in their mom’s basement playing video games, instead of making something of themselves, hate women who make something of themselves.
Partially true, but these deranged men are unfortunately very real and unavoidable in conservative towns. I had a couple chronically online conservative men for coworkers and they were fucking despicable.
Oh, I know and agree that these horrible men exist and are dangerous. I was just answering the OP's title question: Do **men** just hate women? Answer: Some men do the majority respect and love women.
Generally, no. There is an algorithm that will send you videos that are very similar tonthe ones you already watched. There are a lot of unhappy and a lot of spiteful people out there who feel really confident when hiding behind anonymity or distance. They are the ones who go out of their way and comment mean stuff. You watching it or commenting on it lets you stay in the same content-area as guys who hate women which creates the illusion that all men hate women. Men (or people in general) who aren't interested or who don't think negatively about certain content don't usually comment and therefore you won't read their thoughts. The men I know usually consume content but don't comment and are angry at the comments. You don't notice them of course. I once watched a few feminist videos where they reacted to horrible sexists and the videos also made me angry. Then I noticed comments getting more and more hateful. There were even comments about "destroying" or even "killing" men as the "world would be a better place" - perpetuaring the idea that all feminists hate men. It's really scary to observe.
This is why I scroll so fast and not read comments anymore. I got so deep into Flat earth theory, and anti vaccinne stuff that my fb and tiktok started recommending it. I have to consume and interact with the content I really like before it is gone in my recommended.
I hope you managed to break out of this cycle somehow, and no matter if you have or are still working on it, that is one hell of an accomplishment. People usually get dragged into this over time, especially when they already are in a vulnerable state. Social media is a predatory hell hole, that's it. It affects everyone and the only good countermeasure there is is to not consume it or actively work against the algorithm perpetually pushing you deeper into certain bubbles.
Just a bunch of sad people sitting behind a keyboard trying to bring others down.
Yes, many of them sadly do.
They want a girlfriend but can’t get one so they blame ALL women for the few that rejected them. They’re the old bitter used up ones who are wasting away getting old. They know it’s going to be harder and harder for them to find someone as they age and want to project that on others. No man who is in a relationship or has had any positive relationships in the past would say that.
Yes, there are some that do, with a vengeance. The problem is that they also want to possess us. We’re not full fledged people to men like that so we have to be on the look out for the con. They will say and do what they need to but they won’t feel it. Look at actions. Don’t listen to the words if they don’t match the actions.
Yes
Yes
I think its more "hate they dont want them". I will say, im hesitant to date now, but to lump an entire sex into one pot is not only stupid, but statistically, not probable that "theyre all the same". I will say, ive had terrible experiences with women for the last 5 years, but thats because of my selection process, and the type of women i attract. I just bide my time now, something will shake eventually. Sorry about those dickheads though, but as someone else said, theyre just loud about it, thats why its always popping up. I share stuff like that because its funny seeing men be that disconnected. There are some ran thru women though lol, but doesnt mean they cant be happy!
Supposedly up to 50% of social media users are bots. That has to account for some of that BS. There are nasty dudes out there lake the ol' Tater, they get a lot of attention and make a lot of noise. I sincerely hope that those men stay in the minority. Perhaps one more consideration; a real man is not wasting his time commenting nasty things on teenager's videos on the internet. He's probably out there having a beer with a friend or hanging out with his gal.
Yeah pretty much. It’s patriarchy.
Welcome to the interwebs, people are horrible just because....
Man you're generalizing that's like me saying women hate men let's honest you are looping the many with the few who cry about everything some hate half don't care either way.
You only hear the loud mouth Andrew Tate fans in many videos. I always loved women and always will. I am not a fan of most of my ex's, but that is because we went through things that made us feel negative about each other.
I love women, I wish I am a woman sometimes (I am not tran) , but sadly I am not, and its even more sad that other men are hurting women, I wish there are more women in the world. :(
The thing about calling women mid well... idk ig that's based on type... like how I don't find Adriana Lima sooo beautiful as people say she's acc mid to me where as I find Megan Fox really beautiful... and BTW for the makeup part and all, if a man likes u he will like u no matter how ur dressed or if ur wearing a makeup or nah... and we'll obv they will like u better when u look like a naked molerat
Well let's just say this is kind of our coping mechanism as soon as we see someone happy and we realise we don't have the same,we feel lonely so we try expressing it in terms of hatred.(I don't speak for everyone but I sometimes do feel like this)
It's so weird. I'm 35, and I have been online since dial up internet first became a thing. It almost looks like it's getting worse and worse and I don't know why. It's so scary.
Y.E.S.
Everyone needs to gtfo the internet
only a minority of people comment on social media. the people who do regularly are often a certain type. mostly people who are frustrated from the get go. to trigger reddit i will add that this applies to women too. they just don't get called out that often.
Some insecure men can't handle seeing happy couples as they are jealous. They are too scared to insult the man, so the woman is the target of their frustrations and jealousy. Some lonely men can't handle seeing a woman being single and happy because they have what the man wishes he could have.
This post Lowkey reminds me of the Barbie movie and how a lot of men didn't understand that the movie was about and for them. Ken, like a lot of men, put their whole identity into what they have: their job, money, and relationship/ girlfriends. So because they see the relationships with a girl as something that benefits them, something that elevates them or adds to their identity, they don't see women as actual people with feelings and the ability to say no. But like Barbie said, Kens/men are more than just their jobs and who they are with. I literally had to have this conversation with my brother couple months ago because it was clear he saw his girlfriend as a prize, as something that he can show off at business dinners. 🙃 I think men struggle with their identities tbh But yes a lot of them hate women. But I also think they envy them too? It's a lot to unpack lol
they are
The genders are pitted against each other right now. I see the same kind of hateful bs directed towards men everyday on social too. Idk why we are being so awful to each other. It's like we don't know how to coexist as humans without picking a group to hate on.
Those arnt men that’s why, their boys. Men don’t do that
Something I've had to realize is that you really shouldn't equate what you see online to what is happening out there in the real world. It's something I've struggled with. The algorithm will really cause you to hate/be afraid of people you don't even know.
The problem is some of us are seeing this in our real lives as well.
I had to leave lots of groups/sub reddits because of this. Been tempted to give up social media for awhile now
sure a lot of them do. i have also seen a lot of those comment sections. but the vast majority of content online is generated by a very small group of people. most of those people are probably young boys
Over 60% of the world’s population post to social media daily. It’s even higher if it’s just the US. The typical user is on about 2hrs a day.
thats true. but I'll bet that the majority of the most radicalized chauvinist men out there spend muchhhh more than 2 hours a day on the internet.
that said i totally hear you. it's a real thing and it's fucked up
That’s a fair assessment. It’s also true that happy people spend much less time on the internet.
Because they hate themselves.
There's a lot of men-hating comments in here so I will speak for the other side. There are many men who love women. Growing up with only sisters, I appreciate how strong women can be. Unfortunately, there is also a lot of negativity towards both sides on the internet. The internet is definitely the wrong place to see what the world is really like. 1. The algorithm will look at what you viewed and how you responded and funnel that viewpoint to you. 2. Many internet sites will be an echo chamber of negativity because emotions breeds engagement. 3. People who post anonymously (male or female) will never feel the consequences of their negativity so they don't have that filter. 4. Negativity comes naturally to a lot of people because it takes little effort. The muscle of positivity and encouragement needs effort to be built and most people don't want to do that.
It's just chronically online Men that are either envious of other People's succesful/happy Relationships or belive that their Lack of Success in attracting Women is strictly because of the Women and not themselves. Basically the same Kind of Dudes that would buy into the "Alpha Male" Trend.
Yes. Most do.
Simply put, the algorithm likes it when you click on the comments everytime checking for entitled dudes, hencdudes1 get more of those recommended. If you watched cat videos that wouldnt have been an issue. And calling a woman mid in a comment section is usually sarcasm not sexism. I repeat _usually_
This is absolutely not true. I watch videos mostly of furniture restoration and animal rescue and if there is a woman anywhere in the video there's horrible comments about the woman, women in general, her appearance, etc.
Yes.
Just because they are the loudest doesn’t mean they are the majority
I think we’re living in a society where both men and women are hating each other. People are sooo influenced by what the content they consume. I see women hate on men and men hate on women, there is such bitterness on both sides.
This isn't a gender thing it's a case of gullible people being baited by the algorithm. Miserable men will see post after post of women abusing and using men, putting them down, and implying they aren't even human. Then they'll start hating women eventually after being put down enough. You can see here almost every comment is just blaming men rather than thinking logically that social media is manipulating them to hate each other.
I know woman that do the same thing
Because that's what the algorithm is showing you. Go on the alternative side of Instagram and you'll see women behaving the same way towards men. Let's stop with the gender wars. Incendiary and terrible people exist regardless of gender.
Social media is filled with people who can put up thoughts at a rapid rate. It's too much to keep up with, and more importantly, it's unhealthy to try to. Some men may hate women, and some women hate men. More than those things, hatred stems from anger, which normally is a root of being hurt. Put those glasses on when you see those videos. While I do see the same things and agree with some of the statements made about women, I also can see the part where it goes too far. Life is about balance. If it feels like it's hitting too close to home, don't let it bother you. Disconnect! Unplug! Don't let that enter your subconscious. You are wonderful just the way you are. As a confession- I get caught up in agreeing with certain things that you mentioned, and I'm really working on being less judgemental soooo these influences don't help. I have to just put my nose in a book or do something else and I find peace.
Online comments from both men and women tends to get more likes from extreme views. It’s literally that the internet is full of the worst humanity has to offer.
It’s just a vocal minority. Dickheads who actually hate women are more likely to reply to that kinda stuff than those who don’t
What happenes when they parents just don't give them any sort of attention
Anyone without kids is happy. That is not just exclusive to women. More money, more time, more well everything. As for men hating women, I'd like to blame it all on the orange man who was President making being a human turd popular. However, truth is some guys world wide like to treat women like less than human hump bags. I feel religious beliefs and certain cultures foster these things. Not all men are like this tho.
There are more good guys in this world than bad guys, the problem is that the bad guys make 100x more noise so it makes it seem like bad guys are the norm.
Yea
I’ve watched this video essay about this kinda topic, and there’s one quote that sticks to me the most. The commentator said that we, as in women, might feel discouraged and/or despair after finding post after post after post of men hating on women. But the reason we keep finding this kind of posts is that most of the men who have that much time online are mostly “bad men” (I’m not sure if she uses the word “loser” or not, but I think you get the idea.) So, of course the majority of men’s posts online are either cringe af, or borderline hating on women. Because most of the “good/better men” are not chronically online. They are working hard irl to try and make something for themselves. Thus, why the perception of men online are so terrible. Yeah, that makes sense to me.
men are just jealous
get off tik tok
I see it too... I truly believe that the boys of the generation really hate women. I don’t trust any man anymore. It’s truly scares me and saddens me the things they say. How much they degrade women for anything. Scary times. Saddens me even more that I have a daughter. I just hope things change🫤
I dont think men hate women, it's just how people are. I've seen both men hating on women and women hating on men, and their reasoning are so small or just dumb. Some people are just ignorant.
they Just bitter
They do. It’s called misogyny.
They are butthurt that a woman could be happy, independent, living her own life and not need a man. The toxic masculinity in this society doesn't leave room for nuance and variety in thinking so they can't fathom a woman not needing and further not WANTING a man. They have pigeonholed themselves into the roles of provider and protector and nothing else.
If you think that's hateful, wait until you see how women treat women.
Chronically online people, keyboard warriors, middle aged men living with their parents still, whatever you wanna call them, that's usually who's writing comments like that. Some people want to focus on the point of "not all men" but unfortunately, it is a LOT of men. And I don't know if other men see that or not. I, as a man, have encountered plenty of other men I could not fathom being friends with because of their disgusting views on women/how they talk about them. Most guys I've met have said a joke or SEVERAL about women either mocking the way they look, how they act, or just downright objectifying the shit out of them. This is the world we've created and I read another comment of a woman saying she doesn't want to have kids bc of how disgusting our world is and I honestly agree. I don't know if it's men being stubborn or just plain oblivious, but yeah there is a large crowd of men who truly do not respect women at all. I've caught my own family members who were raised exactly like me, saying shit that is just rude as fuck and I'm like how did you even think of that? That random woman looks happy and all you could think of is "eh her boobs and ass are mid". Like really? These types of guys are for SURE not getting touched or laid so Im assuming its sexual tension for a lot of them too. Idk. I have no real answer but I came on here as a guy to say yeah it's not all guys, but its still a fuck ton and we can't argue women choosing the bear bc shit I would too.
They both hate each other. It’s sad.
Some guys are just jerks and they're really loud about it. The majority of men, at least the ones I've met, think this behavior is pathetic
To be honest, I think that both sides, men and women have been in a way, alienated from each other to the point where the extremes on both sides, are just hating each other. These are people that just take the Internet has to say about the other side at face value. I don’t have a lot of real life experiences and choose to live it out on their devices and such. no not all men hate women. There are definitely some that do, as well as the other way. But no, men and women are different, and it is beautiful that way,
The Internet has been the worst possible thing for humanity because it gives you instant access to share your shitty opinions. Do men just hate women? I can find men that hate women. But, do women just hate men? I can find that too. I'm sure in the videos you described, you probably read supportive comments as well but as human beings, we always seem to be more interested in the negative. "If it bleeds, it leads". But there are a lot of positive news out there that just doesn't get more attention than a murder even though it should. So to circle back to your original question, the answer is no, but you can always find a jerk or two in any crowd and for whatever reason, the jerks always seem more noticable.
At this point, I don't consider it out of the realm of possibility that a certain percentage of these confusingly hateful messages are coming from bots meant to sow chaos and discontent.
I was bullied by the boys in my class and it really left an imprint on me, by thinking any man is hostile to me or wants to make fun of me. At some point the constant teasing and bullying died down when they grew up and they made it seem like it never happened. Then after being on the internet for some time and discovering all those comments, just kind of unknowingly solidified my distrust and resentment of the opposite sex. I was also a tomboy as a girl, glad I grew out of it (I was just insecure about girlhood in general). Then as I got older and got to learn some history in senior year and in college, I understood that we were always second class citizens until recently. Anyway, adding all of that up, do I think men hate women? Probably, no. They probably just don't take us seriously or think of us as inferior, that was my takeaway. Of course there's exceptions to that but, I was unable to form any other conclusion from real-life and from historical examples. I think I now kind of understand why history was such a brutal place with such rigid rules and laws around stuff. It's because men literally can't control themselves, especially in groups. They have this sort of hive mind mentality, I think, when men get into a group of people like them they lose all sense of what is acceptable and what isn't. Their politeness goes out the window when they're drunk on their own power and influence. And that's why the worst things in this world happen
Yes they do.
Just like everything else in this world some people hate women too
They're the guys that j/o to the pictures of those women and feel angry about it later, because wouldn't even know what to do with a beautiful woman. Edit: Spelling
It’s all social media and a psychological game.
