Now, look at this. She completely failed to acknowledge that her logic in the previous post I quoted was flawed. In that post, she had implied that telling women they are beautiful is an acceptable way to approach them. When I told her this approach had got me cussed out by a woman once, she went on the offensive and basically gave me the typical feminist nonsense about how i'm not entitled to a good response from a woman. I had never implied I was. I simply pointed out that a guy can play by all the rules and still be treated like a criminal by women. Is it a guy's fault if a woman is a total b*tch when he has done nothing wrong? I don't think so, but that's what some of you seem to be saying.IP: Logged |

The original point I was trying to make is that you can't base your future actions off of past experiences. Well, I mean, you can, but that's not going to get you very far. Just because a handful of women have reacted to you negatively in the past does not mean that every woman you interact with, will. How do you think deeming all women as man-hating feminists will serve you? I would think that they would be even LESS likely to talk to you, then. Hence my point of saying that just because one woman disrespects you, doesn't mean that ALL women are suddenly no longer worthy of your respect. My original question still stands: Why has one experience altered your view of all women to point where you feel that none of them are worthy of respect? IP: Logged |

I don't appreciate getting that sort of personal feedback from complete strangers at all, neither from men nor from women. That's something you can do to me when we know each other - if it's sincere, and if it's not said with any sort of expectation or hidden agenda. But only then. And even then I will still need to force myself to accept it gracefully rather than show annoyance, and will still feel uncomfortable. Not everybody is keen on getting more compliments, you know. To assume it's a friendly thing to all people would be a mistake.
You talk to me like i'm Homer Simpson,but no, you dont have a negative opinion of men. At least you admit that it angers you when a man compliments you even in the most polite way possible. That's exactly what i'm talking about, to me that's sick and weird. IP: Logged |

quote: I know I used to be a negative and cynical b*stard and brought my negativity here more times than I could count, but I have finally had a mental shift. I'm going to school and doing really well and I have been doing new things and taking risks. I have been taking a dance class and my confidence with women is growing. I have also been in a karate class and that's been a lot of fun. I don't know exactly what happened inside me, but I have changed from the inside out. I used to look for the negative in people and situations, but now I look for the good in them. I actually smile now instead of scowling like Donald Trump. It may be hard for some of you to believe, but it's true. The old AG is dead and gone. Life is good.
And then this: quote: You talk to me like i'm Homer Simpson,but no, you dont have a negative opinion of men. At least you admit that it angers you when a man compliments you even in the most polite way possible. That's exactly what i'm talking about, to me that's sick and weird.
quote: Feminists do spread hatred and fear of men. Anyone who denies that is dishonest or ignorant (That's putting it nicely).
quote: At any rate, women are indeed paranoid and hateful towards men. If you can't face that, it's not my problem.

Hey Deepfreeze, back to trolling me again? That's no surprise, but it is still kind of weird that a middle aged man stoops to such behavior.IP: Logged |

Vajra, You contradict yourself and dont even recognize it. You say that it's asinine to judge someone based off of other peoples actions. However, you also tell me I should have sympathy for women who are rude to me. Aren't the women who are rude to me judging based off of their experiences with other men? Is that not asinine? So many double standards...IP: Logged |

Vajra, I said that I think its weird and sick that a lot of women today take compliments from men as an insult. What could possibly be more natural than a man finding a woman attractive? I honestly can't think of anything that is. You just admitted that it annoys you under the most polite of circumstances. So what am I supposed to think? IP: Logged |

Vajra, When I said you talked to me like i'm Homer Simpson, I meant you talked to me like i'm stupid. You also assume a lot of things.For starters, you assume that I approach women uninvited. I never approach a woman unless she appears friendly and approachable. As a general rule, I only approach if I get eye contact and a smile. I find that I can often have mechanical BS conversation with women, but if I express the faintest sexual or romantic interest they look shocked and/or horrified. It's just weird to me... What do women expect? I am a heterosexual man and i'm interested in women. What's so shocking or strange about that? I just think its weird that women are freaked out by guys expressing interest in them. You know what? That makes me uncomfortable and makes me not want to approach women anymore.IP: Logged |

quote: Originally posted by Vajra: Actually I didn't tell you anything like that at all. I asked you to reflect on the reasons why complimenting someone isn't necessarily a friendly thing to all women, depending on their personality and experience - whereas you seem to assume that it is, and you even seem to be angry if someone doesn't react to ia compliment the way you expect. Rudeness is not something I appreciate in anyone. Telling polite guys off rudely is therefore not something I've ever done or would ever condone. However, commenting on someone's physical appearance as the very first act of making contact is, to me, also rather rude in itself because it crosses a boundary. Nevertheless I would not be rude in return, but I would not find it an endearing thing either. People in general, as you must have often noticed, have quite different ideas of what they find socially acceptable. But not all women are the same. I told you that I don't appreciate a stranger approaching me with a compliment on my looks, which is true - and that means the same could very well be true for some other women who, like me, are not keen on being seen as a potential mate. But clearly there are women who rather like to receive compliments, who even work towards receiving them, and those are probably the ones one should best compliment if one wants to do such a thing to a stranger. Did you ever hear Casanova's advice on the topic of compliments? "Compliment the beautiful women on their intelligence, and the intelligent ones on their beauty. Those who are both intelligent and beautiful, don't compliment at all - that's something they're not used to."
Again, you are assuming things. I have never gone up to a girl and blurted "You're beautiful". I usually do that after establishing some sort of rapport. As for the rest of your post, guys are not mind readers . How the hell am I supposed to know if the woman will be offended by being given a compliment on their looks? If women think it is so easy to approach and know what to say in every single situation, maybe we need to change the social convention and have women approach men! I mean.... ya'll seem to think you have all the answers.

Have I insulted you? Which, "cuck" is debatable as an insult anyway but given your views, I suppose in your mind that is a bad insult. In either case, I've been rational with you. We all have. You've shown irrationality by taking posts that counter your views as insults which has led to making very obvious intentional insults by you.In case you're wondering, me bringing up your old thread could have multiple intentions, both negative and positive. One could say that it was posted to insinuate that you're being hypocritical. One could also say that it was posted to in a sense, have you look in the mirror of your two selves. Can you in any way relate to the man who posted that thread? Can you reflect on that time? Did you genuinely feel that way or circumstances that have nothing to do with your views on women gave you a temporary euphoria? At one time, you HAVE thought differently. Why did that change? In either direction. Your views seem unstable and change with unrelated happenings in your life that are going on or that you read. It wasn't enough that you disagree with the new law. Your entire view has snapped back to "the old" AG as you described yourself. Seems to me that when you wrote that thread, it was a nice thought but you hadn't quite fully convinced yourself that you believed it.
