Lately I've been kind of a man hater. Even though the majority of my friends are guys I still think it's important for us to connect here. Sometimes guys suck and these are some reasons that I've seen for myself. Hope you can relate here.

THEY FORGET a LOT
Men tend to forget about a lot of things. Sometimes it's not a big deal, but I can turn into one. Like when they forget your birthday, anniversary, or Valentine's Day. When that happens it makes you feel not so special and guys just can't see that.
It's almost like they have a special talent for zoning out precisely when you discuss plans or share emotions. Sure, multitasking might not be their forte, but listening should be non-negotiable. And it's not just about forgetting dates; it's the little things, too. Did he even notice your new haircut? Oh, who are we kidding? You could march in with a pet dragon and they might just nod absentmindedly. Can be pretty exasperating, right? But hey, they sometimes remember to take out the trash – if that's any consolation.
THEY UNDERESTIMATE WOMEN
In my life there have been guys who underestimated me. I know for a fact that I'm not the only one who has experienced this. Guys just look at us like we're babies who are fragile and aren't capable of much. Well obviously they're dead wrong. If they opened up their eyes and actually had some faith in us things could be a lot better.
It's frustrating and honestly, it's demeaning. The fact that some guys still cling to outdated stereotypes is baffling. Like, hello, we're in the 21st century! Women have proven time and time again that we're strong, intelligent, and more than capable of excelling in areas traditionally dominated by men. From corporate boardrooms to scientific breakthroughs, women are shattering glass ceilings left and right. So maybe it's time these guys stop selling us short and start recognizing the powerhouse that is femininity. Because guess what? Underestimating us will only lead to them being proven wrong, spectacularly.
Frequently asked questions
Yeah, sometimes men do things that aren't as cool as what women do. Nobody's perfect, and guys can mess up just like anyone else.
Well, some dudes might not be as good at listening, or they could be a bit lazy around the house. Sometimes they act tough when it's cool to be kind instead. It's not all guys, but some can be like that.
For sure! Guys can learn and change just like anybody. They can get better at stuff they're not great at, like talking about feelings or helping out more.
Nope, not all men are bad at the same stuff. Every guy is different, so some might be really good at things that others aren't. It's about the person, not just if they're a man or woman.
Sometimes it's just for laughs, like making a joke. Other times it's because some men do things that are not so cool, and it can make it seem like they're not as caring or smart as women. But remember, it's not true for every guy out there.
IT'S THEIR WAY or the HIGH WAY
Most guys think that the world revolves around them. Well I hate to break it to them but it doesn't. There's this thing called compromising and learning to swallow your pride. Guys can be very difficult to communicate with and they throw fits if things don't go their way. They need to learn that they aren't always going to be in control. For once they should let us have a say or meet in the middle. It's not the end of the world if things don't go their way.
THEY over SEXUALIZE WOMEN
Men are dogs and that's the fact of life. All they see is an item that's used to pleasure their sexual needs. Well we're actually human beings. We have thoughts and opinions on the issues society faces today. We aren't sex toys for the boys.
Many guys seem to suffer from a chronic case of tunnel vision, where every gal is scoped out for her curves rather than her character. It's like we're walking through a world where only our bodies speak, while our voices are stuck on mute. The truth is—we want to be seen for our intellect, our humor, our kindness, and our strength. Not just the shape of our silhouette. Respect is sexy, fellas. Get with the program and appreciate the whole package, not just the wrapping.
DOUBLE STANDARDS
I swear a man can get away with much more than a woman can. They probably feel the same way about us but they're naive if they can't see their own privileges. A guy can walk around shirtless without a problem, but if a girl does it she gets charged and arrested. Guys can go around and sleep with whoever they like and get praises for it, but if a woman does it she's known as a slut and she's shamed. It amazes me to how many guys just can't see this. Maybe they should stand up for us more often.
