best comeback for a woman who said: "men are trash"
On average No…you’ve been programmed. Why? Divide and conquer. Families don’t consume enough to perpetuate our consumer-driven economy. While separate grown ppl do. “You don’t need no man” drilled in for 50 years and here we are. Now they’ve got us where each of these separate households require 2 incomes from the one individual.
No I'd say men are on average not so great. (I'd never use the word "trash" though) There's plenty of groups that are like that - stereotypes exist for a reason. They're often true. It's just not fair to the "good" ones.
I'm not in any way a "man hater". I know a ton of great ones and I have the best one. 🩷 But there's a reason women have to watch their backs. Hundreds of reasons. It's not fair to either of us, but life's not always fair. 🤷🏼♀️
Can you name another stereotype?
I have had such difficulty with this. Walking my dog and seeing women clutch their purse. Having to completely change my route so as not to scare the women in the distance.
I've come to the conclusion that their reaction to my presence is not my responsibility. They're too fragile to take a walk around the neighborhood. Not my fault.
Their reaction to your presence is a direct result of experience. For women, the odds that any man they encounter is a rapist or other predator is statistically far too high to take chances. The best thing you can do if women seem wary of you is to simply move along and demonstrate for her that some men are NOT predators. They've been taught by experience that there are enough "men" like that to justify assuming all men are unless/until shown otherwise.
