And how many men drink to hide their pain? Women's acting this way is a modern phenomenon and it happens because women are given access to everything now. Home life where you are basically a glorified NEET? Sure welcome to traditional female roles. A job you got because every employer needs to look progressive and therefore you didn't have to work as hard a s man for? Sure you got that. Want to be a fat slob? You go girl here's why that's a good thing.
You're fucking nuts if you think every man is a wifebeating neanderthal. Nice job waving that bloody shirt, though.
I actually don't. Believe it or not I do recognize that most guys aren't like that.
As a statement of OBJECTIVE nature? Yes. Absolutes are rarely, if ever, correct. Speaking in "most"s and "usually"s, however, I find that even some of the coarsest guys are willing to just fucking leave it at a mano-a-mano, while some of the seemingly-softest women will not stop at anything short of turning your skull into their next wine goblet and drinking from it in front of your family and friends, and it seemed to only get worse from that on down. I would attribute this in part to bad behavior in women not being disincentivized anywhere NEAR as strongly as it is with men.
Frankly I don't know what most people in this thread are talking about. The worst underhanded bullying I've seen was from a dude. I don't know any psycho harpies except my mom. But I'd probably distance myself from any if I met them.
If you had to ask me which was scarier between these two:
That one's a hard choice for me. With the woman I can just placate her with lies and walk away to the back room until she leaves. However with both there's the chance that they follow me to the back room but I'd expect the angry man will be more likely too because the woman would be too preoccupied to realize I'm lying.
Honestly, in my case it happened that another associate had managed to (they claimed unintentionally) do something pretty damn rude and when confronted about it doubled down fucking hard before scooting off into an employees-only area. He then came to me and I kind of let him talk for a bit and told him I understood and would absolutely get him a manager to talk to, as I didn't feel I would be able to offer him proper redress. He was a bit grumpy but kind of seemed to calm down about it a bit.
Just recently I was accosted by a whale of a woman. She claimed to be a vegan but she was easily at least four hundred pounds. Anyways she had overheard myself and another employee making fun of vegetarians and vegans while also discussing the moral implications of using those pronged dog collars which we concluded were abusive. So this pale whale waddles over and starts screaming about us being hypocrites and all such as that and I just laughed and walked away.
