16 Women Share Brutal Truths Men Are Not Ready To Hear
“Anger is an emotion. If you’re angry a lot or easily upset and people have to walk on eggshells around you, guess what, you’re an emotional person.” — marinc680
“Please tell us if something is wrong. Do not cheat. It hurts and hurts and just keeps hurting forever. If you know it’s over or you’re not invested in the relationship anymore, please talk it out. Leave and do as you please. Don’t break someone’s heart in the process. Being cheated on feels like the death of your soul, mentally and physically affects your health. Obviously, vice versa. Women could learn too but this is something that I, personally, would tell a man.” — iamunderthewotur
“Making us feel stupid for not knowing something doesn’t make you look smart.” — hawty_
“Men are allowed to moan during sex. It’s a huge turn on and encouraging for us.” — mmhhmkay
“Plenty of plain-looking men have wives and girlfriends. If you have bought into incel ideology, you are being manipulated. Time to log off, leave your house, and get some hobbies. If you are smart, interesting, a responsible adult, funny, have a good personality—literally ANY of those things, not even all of them at once—some woman somewhere will want to date you. She may not be a supermodel, but face it: neither are you.” — Worried-Zucchini549
“You don’t have to be macho or a manly man. My husband did everything his friends told him not to do on our first date. I mean he rambled on about Star Trek and MTG and some band I care nothing about. I didn’t care. I love that he was honest and had hobbies he was passionate about.” — Snorlaxstolemysocks
“Women NEVER want strange men grabbing their ass in a bar. Ever. Repeat after me, EVER.” — cindyluvslabs
“It is also YOUR responsibility to avoid causing unintended pregnancies. It’s not all on us. You don’t get to refuse a condom and then look at us and say ‘don’t get pregnant.’” — KhajitCaravan
“You all really do need to clip your nails.” — Jellikelli3
“If you find something she enjoys (sexually, but I guess otherwise as well lol), keep doing it. Don’t interrupt the momentum by trying to switch it up for no reason.” — snicoleon
“Sometimes what you perceive as admiration and/or respect is actually fear. You’re bigger than us, and we always have that at the back of our minds, even if we don’t personally have a reason to fear you. This isn’t true of all women, but I suspect it’s true of a lot of us.” — KidsTheseDaysYknow
“When a girl says no, please listen, don’t beg until she says yes.” — Yamiras89
“When we ask you to use lube, we are not really asking, we’re telling you gently that you’re hurting our vacooters because you’ve been rubbing it dry instead of pleasing us to make us wet.” — Hibernating_pizza
“Bras are expensive, and it’s hard to find one that fits just right. So you might think it’s ‘sexy’ or ‘passionate’ to try to rip the damn thing off, but you’ve actually just cost us a significant amount of time and money. A damaged bra is unwearable, so now we have to search high and low for one that fits properly and doesn’t make us feel like we’re being stabbed, and then pay an extortionate amount for it. Just leave all things bra-related to us.” — LittleBitOdd
“That our cycle really messes up with our energy and libido so if we don’t want sex it’s not something you can talk us out, we simply don’t have the energy for that. It’s not our fault, it’s not your fault, our body is just like that. (And.. No, it doesn’t mean “try harder” either.)” — blessedchocoquqi
“We know it’s not all men. Unfortunately, we don’t know WHICH men, so we have to be equally cautious around all of them.” — seahawksgirl89
