you do know that women have testosterone and men have estrogen too right? The hormonal differences between men and women IN NO WAY directly relate to every single one of our behaviors, like watching sports isn't just "because testosterone." That's hugely oversimplified.

Most of what you all claim is innate really isn't. Human beings are incredibly plastic in our potential behaviors, and a lot of the reasons we classify certain behaviors as "male" or "female" is because one of the things that IS innate in humans is our FIERCE need to conform to the group around us.

In short, if you behave like a bro stereotype, you're doing it to fit in. Likewise if you behave like a female stereotype as a woman.

Oh my god, so my incorrect stuff in here - stop taking gender studies classes!

Gender is NOT a social construct you marxist heathen!

I try to understand men because I think men and women are mean to be harmonious and not adversarial.

This morning I was appalled at how little some men knew about very basic things about women.

Then I thought that I probably have areas of ignorance I am clueless about men about.

So I may not even know what I don't know. But here is what I know I don't know.

Please inform me.

1. How men can watch so many hours of sports in one stretch. 4 hrs max for me.

2. Why there isn't more education on how to control your penis. We have info galore on what to do in a bear or shark attack. So many men have issues with cheating or fapping or ed or quick or too long ejaculation but it seems like everything available to you is a pill or broscience. Seems unfair.

3. Why do men bully their friends? The language seems aggressive. I know men report feeling lonely, which is one reason they love women, because they can be more vulnerable without the judgement.

4. Some men make fun of women for their differences - weak, emotional, unambituous. But when these same men see a woman who is strong, logical and ambitious, she is also ridiculed for having those qualities. Do you think men know what they want? Or are they as paradoxical as women?


TLDR: Need a dictionary, boring, OP clueless about men

Can't even begin with this one.

Well said, all around.

I am a strong woman, though. And quite unemotional - I'm calm to weird extent. I was told every man wants me once they realize I'm low drama. So some masculine traits there, but also very highly feminine (high heels, fashion, baking, that sort of thing). It takes averymasculine man to handle the mix. Weak is just not a word that comes mind when I think of myself.I can be intimidating for some guys.

Not sure where all the sharing came from, but you were open and truthful too.

Thanks for contributing to the male/female cohesiveness and understanding I aim to cultivate.

Blessed are the peacemakers.

Can we put this feminist canard to rest once and for all?

Men are not intimidated by women. Not anywhere. Not any time. Intimidation means to frighten somebody into doing what you want them to do. It's feminist projection to think that men respond to women in the same way that women respond to men. We don't. Intimidation should NEVER enter into the equation when you are trying to figure out why we act the way we do.

Maybe not you.

This is from a female point of view, so I know it's not what you've asked for but still

2. Probably the same reason there's no classes teaching women not to sloot.

3. It's called banter

If you're not trolling you've been lied to a lot.

1. How men can watch so many hours of sports in one stretch. 4 hrs max for me.

I love strong logical and ambitious women. And I think most men find this attractive. There are two people that don't appreciate these qualities:
1. Incompetent men
2. Most women.

My friend IRl was just saying that we ought to have coed sex education. That way, men can learn how the female reproductive system works (and after all, they're going to be dealing with one sooner or later if they're lucky...) and women can learn how the male one works (for the same reason). I also think women should be encouraged to learn traditionally "male skills" like taking care of cars or home repair (lesbians be way ahead on this... and yeah I find it annoying when women giggle and go lol I can't do that!! when faced with any task that involves a screwdriver like c'mon) and men should learn how to clean and cook (because then maybe many of you wouldn't have to struggle so hard to eat a healthy diet... or think it's OK to live in filth).

4. We are the same as women here...broads are always complaining about wanting an honest, sensitive man who pays attention and makes them feel good but when that man is in front of them, they complain that they want a strong man with coin who can pound the life outta their mound. The truth is you want it all...and so do we (independent, sexy, humble, submissive, family oriented, career oriented) . But the 'total package' people we want don't exist, so we bitch and moan about the shortcomings of all types.

People with higher IQs, from what I've observed, are also much more likely to pursue hobbies that aren't stereotypical. My father (Princeton graduate), for example, is a straight man who loves and is heavily involved in musical theater. [He's also a vegan AND a Republican, which I find funny].
