No but fr, I have seen it on the forums. I’ve spoken to women who have experienced it in fab. And obvs people in my life talk about experiencing it all the time.
It’s #NotAllMen  but also like, it feels like a lot of men?
(To clarify I don’t hate men or want any man bashing, I have men that are family and friends.) |

"oh lord this is gonna be wild
You don’t even believe in the Lord!!! 
To quote (paraphrase, probably) my very favourite book
"It's a figure of speech, Josie. It's a fucking figure of speech""
I just realised the significance of that character's surname. It's only been 28 years since I read that book for the first time. Duh Swing. Swing is stupid. |

I know I’m not responsible for other guys behaviour but hear stuff from female friends on site or see status comments and I think ‘jeez I’m associated with that by being a man myself’
No matter how many times the ‘up your game’ ‘don’t be a dick’ stuff is said it keeps going on and I’m sick of it but at same time unsurprised. |

"I've come to the unfortunate conclusion that a lot of men are *attracted* to women sexually, but don't actually *like* women.  "
Even more unfortunate is how tightly connected those two truths are a lot of the time. |

Very unfortunate and I've noticed as well. If you disagree and say well not all women are like what certain users say they are. You're suddenly called a white Knight for saying so. |

It's very worrying to see. I do think that with most things, we do only hear both sides of the extreme opinions as they're the ones who shout the loudest. But a lot of it has to come with women wanting more out of society and it being seen as disrupting the expected flow.
For hundreds and thousands of years men have always been expected to be needed for women to provide a good life and now more women are thinking and living independently, it plays on insecurities of men who feel they are not enough and lash out accordingly. I can't say for sure that that's the reason, but it's a theory worth exploring. |

I agree it's a lot of men, I think especially here they come with expectations of sex now & can't handle the rejection that comes with it so they turn nasty.

I think even more than this there are some men who think that women are there to have sex with them, and see it as an affront if they don’t. |

I love the company of women as well as the physical stuff - especially women with a quick sense of humour… i realised very early in life that women are super smart, intuitive, very funny and great company - the sex stuff is just the icing on the cake!! |
