Lol - I tell my husband I hate men all the time, but he knows that I'm either talking about patriarchy or right-wing man-babies. And, just for the record, he agrees with me.

If these guys are tired of being lonely, then they should work on being less self-centered, entitled, repellent, and frankly uninteresting people. I'm so tired of listening to men insist that they're the strongest, bravest, best things since sliced bread, while simultaneously whining and crying about how downtrodden they are and how women are oppressing them. It's fucking *pathetic* and just about every woman I know is walking away. Men have to help and change THEMSELVES.

I'm just astounded that anyone would think these women were serious. I'm trying to figure out if they're even real.

😂😂😂😂😂 Because a man's penis is SOOOOO powerful that it actually changes the organic composition of our reproductive organs!! Just like having a penis enter our vagina for the first time supposedly changes EVERYthing about who we are? 😂😂😂 All hail the Great Transmogrifying Penis! Women are just fine the way we are, tho, thanks. Maybe men can work on their penises changing radioactive waste into glitter nail polish, or sewer fatbergs into baked Alaska. Something more productive.
