The wage gap between men and women is the wage gap between married men and literally everyone else

The wage gap between men and women is the wage gap between married men and literally everyone else

One can only wonder why married men always earn more, even at 20yo... The women must surely be attracted to their personalities and looks or something.

“True love” is sexist propaganda

Where a lesbian explains how straight relationships are a nightmare and this is the fault of movies that apparently are force fed to every woman because of the patriarchy. Notice that both the authors and the commenters seem to believe women are OBSESSED with men. In her TikTok video, some users are even arguing in favour of political lesbianism.

>“The one” reinforces the idea that women are made for men.

This reeks of a lesbian who loved a straight woman who ended up with a man.

Sometimes I think the oversized man hate is really just lesbians being loud. Either way, some straight women are clearly identifying with it.

Bi men are often assumed to be gay and bi women are assumed to be straight because of WANIM

Bi men are assumed to be gay because women (including bisexual women themselves) often penalise men for being bisexual because they hate the thought of a man being with a man in real life. Likewise, lesbian and bi women are also more likely to penalise a woman who has slept with a man or who might leave them for a man than a woman who hasn't or won't.

Since straight men are less likely to penalise a women who has been with or might be with a woman and gay men are less likely to penalise bi men for having dated or who might date women, those two groups (bi men and bi women) often end up with a man (or with having to hide their bisexuality).

"Asked how they'd react if a co-worker propositioned them for sex, 63% of women said they'd be insulted, while only 17% said they'd be flattered. Men were almost exactly the reverse: 67% of men said they'd be flattered, only 15% that they'd be insulted.”

While trying to find the source, I found something even better:

>Reactions to sexual harassment also follow evolutionary psychological logic. When asked how they would feel if an opposite-sex coworker asked them to have sex, 63% of the women said that they would be insulted, while only 17% said that they would feel flattered (Gutek, l1985). Men’s reactions were roughly the opposite—only 15% said they would be insulted, and 67% would feel flattered. In some situations,bwhere women see danger, men may see sexual opportunity. These reactions reflect human sexual psychology—men generally have more positive emotional reactions to the prospect of casual sex (Buss & Schmitt, 1993). Some women, of course, enjoy sexual attention from some men in some circumstances. Most, though, react more negatively than do men to being treated merely as sex objects. The attractiveness of the perpetrator and the socio-sexual orientation of the person evaluating acts of harassment also influence legal outcomes. In two studies involving 1516 individuals, participants evaluated different hypothetical scenarios occurring in a workplace coffee bar (Klümper & Schwarz, 2019). The scenario depicts a co-worker of the opposite sex entering the room and, after some small talk with the victim, abruptly making either an implicitly sexual comment such as, “when you feel tension after work, I could help you relax,” or an overt sexual advance such as “fondles your back” or “grabs your butt.” Participants rated how disturbing each scenario would be to the targeted person and how uncomfortable the situation would be to the participant doing the rating. Men perceived all these workplace sexual advances as less disturbing than women did. Both men and women high in desire for casual sex viewed the sexual advances as less disturbing. And women evaluated sexual advances from a physically attractive man as significantly less disturbing than advances from a physically unattractive man, possibly because the emotional impact of a sexual overture is influenced by the man’s mate value. Women’s reactions to sexual harassment also depend heavily on whether the motivation of the harasser is perceived to be sexual or romantic. Sexual bribery, attaching job promotions to sex, and other cues that the person is interested only in casual sex are more likely to be interpreted as harassment than are signals of genuine romantic interest, complimentary looks, or mild flirtation (Buss, 2021). In this study, college women rated acts by coworkers such as a man putting his hand on a woman’s genital area or trying to corner a woman when no one else was around as “extremely harassing.” In contrast, those same women viewed acts such as telling a woman that he sincerely liked her and would like to have coffee with her after work as signifying little or no harassment.

We now have scientific evidence for that workplace sexual harassment meme.

>a lot of women want men to want something that they don't want

Holy truth bomb.

Not sure if anyone here has followed the voice memo guy but basically this guy sent a voice memo saying sexual compatibility was important to him and if she wasn't into that, he didn't want to go on more dates. Cue women calling his voice memo coercion, ultimatum and all sorts of other things.

This is the voice memo.
