gender myths and stereotypes
- Thread starter Gaze
- Start date
I would get this while I was in high school and still occasionally do.
"Wow, you're a tall, athletic-looking guy! Do you play basketball?"
No, I'm on the trivia and debate teams, I play in the orchestra and I sometimes act. I don't give a shit about the Pacers. Please go away.
Girls have to be reticent, well-mannered and empathetic, and have a light touch with everything.
Guys have to be assertive, indefatigable, and somehow also apathetic.
I just want shit to be solved and I could care less if you understand. However, I do need to be heard.
I feel like this depends on personality.
Men are far more into gossip than some may think. Also cleaning, fashion, shopping, geeez, it's really funny in extreme cases.

When girls go through a breakup and decide they "hate all boys they're all the same douches" it is such a generalization it hurts my head. You hate the type of attractive guys that dress like studs, don't respect you, have nothing in common with you and clearly don't do commitment, who happen to be the only types of guys you fall for. There are billions of other guys who have nothing in common with the men you've dated. And on the other hand, there are plenty of girls who have the same unattached stud personality. Compatibility is not a gender thing.
