Fact - it's Easier to work with Men than Women! Men are simple when it comes to decision making, women on the other hand are intimated so they hate you, need constant gratification, if your confident they hate you, if you take the well earned limelight women hate you! Always worked in all male dominated offices for a reason! #alphabitch #fuckthesisterhood #malebrain Shock Angry

Reminds me of The Social Network - you think girls won't like you if you're a nerd. It's not that. It's because you're an asshole.

Sheshelob - Will you marry me?

I'm sure when your friend realises that women in CEO roles at FTSE-level companies outperform men in similar roles considerably she'll put this down to them shagging their way to profits or something.

What a dumbo. She should have her vagina revoked.

SweetHoneyBeeeeee · 08/07/2013 21:39

Buffy I don't know if you're allowed ti be a reasonable feminist? Grin

I think it is fine to have a personal preference (interesting though as I would be very uncomfortable saying I prefer to have white friends)....what is not ok is to make broad, sweeping, derogatory and inaccurate statements about 50% of society based in their gender. But that's just me and I am still receiving my feminist education from mn so totally prepared to be told I am wrong, and if so, why Grin

It could be that she is only comfortable taking orders from men because she genuinely believes them to be superior. In which case, you have to feel a bit sorry for her because her self esteem will always be low.

DesperatelySeekingSedatives · 08/07/2013 21:45

I hate women like this. They're the same women who say shit like "I'm only friends with men because women are such bitches!" Hmm No luv, you have female friends because they see you for what you are. Men dont seem to have that radar!"

I'm not being sexist against men when I say that btw Grin I genuinely find that most men do not see other people for what they truly are sometimes. Especially when it's subtle.

Thanks, Nombre. But Buff got there first.

Oh, and my actual husband, I suppose.

Buffy, you are far too funny to not be liked by humans in general and women in particular.

SweetHoneyBeeeeee · 08/07/2013 21:54

Ha, don't worry Buffy Grin interesting though isn't it...I felt fine about you saying it til I thought of replacing 'male' with 'white'...This forum has really opened my eyes to how ingrained sexism is in society -I was one of those people that used to make these generalizations until I started reading here, got directed to various other resources and started questioning myself (and others) a lot more. Like I said my education is a work I progress...thank god for mn!

For me, it depends on the conversation. I'm not very interested in needlework or baking or best ways to get stains out of laundry.

But then I don't have much in common with the women either Grin

Sheshelob · 08/07/2013 21:55

I like bad jokes!

JamNan · 08/07/2013 22:02

Is her name Wendy by any chance?

Nope, not Wendy. I am afraid that means there are at least three of them; katie hopkins, my (ex) fb friend and 'Wendy'. Surely that is too many?

Bowel in the bowels of his very own volcano made of porn. It makes me feel kind of emotional. He was so half arsed I almost felt sorry for him.

Self-loathers are a mystery to me, as they are the self-appointed flying monkeys of misogyny and yet are punching themselves in the face with each and every attack, but seem not to notice. It was as if she deliberately posted the status to get a lovely pat on the head from the boys club she so desperately seeks acceptance from by distancing herself from her own gender, whilst waving her genitals around as some kind of licence to slag women off.

NoComet · 08/07/2013 22:17

Unfortunately the worst work experience I have had and the nastiest social interactions have been with other women. Men are generally ok, some are a bit patronising, but never nasty.

Sheshelob · 08/07/2013 22:20

But didn't they just happen to be women, Star? I feel cuntishness knows no boundary - rich, poor, black, white, male, female. It is like a veritable melting pot of shitiness.

LadyBeagleEyes · 08/07/2013 22:20

I was going to say 'Is she Katie Hopkins' too but got beaten to it Grin.

SweetHoneyBeeeeee · 08/07/2013 22:23

But star that is your personal experience...I was sexually harassed by a middle aged man of Indian origin in my last job, doesn't mean every person who fits in that demographic will be the same, and if I made some public announcement saying so I would be rightly vilified!
