My adult children (one male one female) have told me this after explaining the concepts in the gift of fear book and a social media post I made about it. They wasn’t nasty about it but pointed out some valid points. My son asks me why I go on dates when i always end them. I ended OLD weeks ago anyway. My daughter says I self sabotage probably due to the bad treatment I’ve suffered by men. It’s probably true that I am. But to me the majority of men are LVM and I refuse to put up with it. But this is offensive and ridiculed. Right now I want to cry and deciding to be alone forever as I don’t think I can trust men ever. Hell I even struggle with female relationships.
Any tips on being a man hating, no friends, animal loving only older female lol?!
Yeah they always have labels for us, manhater just feels like another way of saying spinster. I am quickly slapped with the manhater label as soon as I criticize anything men collectively do, or if I come off as too "picky" for who I date.
Upholding your standards and boundaries for who you date and the friends you allow in your life is not self-sabotage, it's self care.
I'll be your man hating, animal loving buddy here in the community 💜 I'm sorry you're getting shit on (by your own kids! Ugh!). I think you're right that most men are LV, and it's awesome that YOU'RE the one ending things on YOUR terms. My only advice would be to take a full break from dating to process your feelings and find joy in being single.
I personally find silly names more than a decent price to pay for not being saddled with the miserable lives everyone else has for putting up with mediocre shit 🤷♀️
How old are they? If the girl is under 25 she'll probably understand your viewpoint by the age of 30 after getting dogged out a couple times. I guess she's blessed to not have so many traumatic experiences. I know that for me, I thought men being nice to my face meant that they were nice. Took a few times getting burned to realize men are nice to your face just to get sex. Doesn't actually mean they are nice.
I hear I'm a manhating extreme feminist just by following and having standards for men I date. I think when this topic is brought up and when I'm told I'm going to end up alone it's because I've hit a nerve. This should be the new regime. It will force men to realize in order to get into relationships with women they HAVE TO SHOW US EFFORT. PERIOD. 👑 also if you need a friend. Hi. I'm Cam!
Disenchantment with the male franchise is in every woman's future. I'd focus first on making female friends. Celebrate your freedom; you aren't trapped in a bad relationship and you can do literally anything you want. Join a female only travel group and see the world. Take some classes in topics that interest you. You've got to live your life, you only have one and the time will fly by quick. Men are such takers. They shouldn't be much more than a footnote in your life.
Any straight woman who has been dating for more than a minute hates men. There’s nothing wrong with being honest with yourself about your feelings. Men are trash
You have standards and boundaries. That's self care, not self sabotage. Your daughter will come around. You need to worry about your son.
I like to reframe things. They've made manhater a bad thing, bit woman hater is a glorious thing! So in my mind I've decided to switch it around and I'm disgusted by them and am proud of being a manhater, yeah when they stop being violent and making every romantic relationship a warzone where our self esteem is the target ill think about stop hating them 😀
Sometimes when people say mean stuff like that, I just agree with them. I would say, yes, you're right, in casual, non-sarcastic way. They are either surprised, or drop the topic quickly, or they try to convince me that I'm not so bad. If they give me unsolicited advices about how should I change, I greyrock them. That way, they have nothing to use against me. I use their weapons.
