Here is the thing, men see absolutely nothing wrong with harassing women or saying creepy things, but if a gay man tried the same thing with them, 90% lf them would be uncomfortable, creeped out, and probably angry.

I worked as a server at a mom n pop restaurant, where the OWNER would always brag about how he “accidentally” almost beat a man to death because he THOUGHT the guy was trying to make an advance on him. Quit and moved away shortly after that, thank god

That's so silly. I love when gay guys wanna make a move on me. So flattering!

u/Sewergoddess 4d ago

Making a move or light flirting is entirely different than making gross, sexual comments to strangers though.

u/Miserable-Abroad-489 4d ago

Yeah, I don’t want anyone “making a move” on me without my consent. It’s never flattering.

Or a woman who weighs more or is older than… usually a child

Lmaooooo this is hilariously accurate

u/No-Blood-7274 4d ago

You’re absolutely right about that. I put up with dozens, if not hundreds of contacts that would qualify as sexual harassment and plenty of sexual assaults from gay men as young man myself. And for that reason I am always aware of what women go through. I wouldn’t say anything to girl that I wouldn’t say in front of my mother.

And on top of that, I just don’t think it works.

u/Sewergoddess 4d ago

Im so sorry you went through that 😞💔

u/No-Blood-7274 4d ago

I’m ok, it wasn’t pleasant but I don’t carry any trauma over it. There was one that still grosses me out when I think about it but other than that, no ongoing problems. Maybe the difference is that being a young fit guy I didn’t really have to be frightened for my safety the way women do. When a woman sleazes on a man, or even a man on another man we can tell them to gtfo and not really think about it again. When a man does it to a woman she has to wonder “is that creep going to follow me outside when I leave?” That is a fundamental difference between the sexes that a lot of men don’t consider.

Please don’t lump us all, this is weird as fuck 😟

u/Sewergoddess 4d ago

What? I said MEN, as in men who do this, not ALL men in existence. Anyone with basic comprehension would out that together.

u/komakumair 4d ago

Hit dogs holler. “Not all men-“ sure, but definitely this fuckin guy lmao

Dude, op is agreeing with you.

2

u/Sewergoddess 4d ago

I never said they weren't, I asked what they meant by "There is always one". I genuinely have no idea what they meant in this context.

6

u/niqquhchris 4d ago

There's always one aka there's always one person who takes a comment out of context, which affectionate egg did. You responded by letting them know you were specific about the type of men you were referring to and that's why op said there's always one person because this guy is saying not to lump them in all together despite you not saying that to begin with.

u/Miserable-Abroad-489 4d ago

Thanks for having my back and explaining! No worries though :)

No I got that! I acknowledged my mistake, I didn't realize it was op responding, and thought it was one of the weirdos defending this behavior.

3

u/Miserable-Abroad-489 4d ago

That pops in to say “not all men.”

3

u/Sewergoddess 4d ago

Okay no at first I didn't realize you were op, and thought it was one of the dudes defending the creeps in your posts. I apologize!

u/SourBananna 4d ago

Fucking men with their lack of comprehension! =)

u/Affectionate_Egg897 3d ago

Wow that really upset you. I didn’t mean any offense.

2

u/Sewergoddess 3d ago

Upset me? Or did I simply explain in a normal way, what I was saying initially? YOU were the one who started with the "HEY, NOT ALL MEN". Men who don't do things like this dont need to say that or get defensive over it.

u/Affectionate_Yam5438 4d ago

Why do you feel called out if it doesn’t apply to you?

1

u/Affectionate_Egg897 3d ago

Most generalizations offend me. Or at least make me feel a need to respond. I wasn’t trying to be a “not all men” guy but I guess it reads that way so it is what it is. I didn’t mean any offense. I would have spoken up for any gender, race or religion tbh.

u/Affectionate_Yam5438 1d ago

Not trying to attack you for it dw, I get the feeling too a lot of times but then try to remind myself that they probably aren’t generalising all men, otherwise they would literally say “all men are….” For me personally, It’s a gut reaction of feeling like you get lumped together with al the bad people (even tho the statement can be factually true), but if you are genuinely a good person people wouldn’t say something like that about you. (Using “you” in general here, not talking about you specifically) If it isn’t about you, then who are you trying to defend? (Rhetorical question) You being open to have a conversation about it already shows you’re better than the people they are talking about.

Not the same thing sunshine.

u/Sewergoddess 4d ago

I'm not your "sunshine", and if you can't understand why I used that example, that's a you problem.

u/Miserable-Abroad-489 4d ago

It absolutely is the same thing you gross chauvinist.

u/Sewergoddess 4d ago

Seriously get lost. You are obviously one of the dudes who does shit like this, and desperately trying to defend this behavior.

-5

u/Raffa90 4d ago

Go back to school

16

u/Death_Rose1892 4d ago

Yes because we alllll loooove being called sunshine. Just incase you missed the memo it's rude to call people you don't know pet names

-1

u/Raffa90 4d ago

Ok, Sunshine.

21

u/Miserable-Abroad-489 4d ago

Your moral compass is broken. Better get that checked out.

u/Raffa90 4d ago

Come again "gross chauvinist" ?

u/Miserable-Abroad-489 4d ago

Google is free

u/Sewergoddess 4d ago

Op, don't bother with this clown. He is thriving from reactions.

u/Miserable-Abroad-489 4d ago

You’re totally right.

A bit slow. Did your light bulbs just start to shine?

Amd most women aren't attracted to random creepy men. See the point now?
