That's not true! Wait...argh...
It’s ok. It’s just how it is. Men/women arguing is like grownups arguing with children. Once you start arguing, you’ve already lost.
I don’t mind “losing” arguments to my wife. She is smart and right more often than I am. But our friends have noticed that when it comes to certain issues, I become a wall. Once I stop arguing without conceding anything, there is a certain sense of fear and dread. They don’t like it when I’m right about something!

At least it's not another "I can't get a girlfriend" thread, right?

Indeed, he should be listed as a potentially dangerous incel by now.

So is there any sexuality whatsoever that we DON'T have some insidious stereotype for?

Men are just as complicated and "frustrating" as women, but you don't see women going on shooting sprees.

There's really no logical contest to your point XFG, but it makes me hope women don't want their own equivalent to the Napoleon complex behind the larger-than-life, westernized ideal of confidence Fnord's OP advocates. A bit of confidence is one thing but it's hard to distinguish from arrogance for a lot of people who practice these ideals, even if it's not to the PUA extent. Letting our culture rely so heavily on pompous vanity & power is dangerous with or without the bullets, it's not furthering equality to be asking for a piece of that.

It was a joke. If I argue with him, it becomes a paradox.
