Women...convinced or have always?
Have some women been convinced to hate men or have they always?Essentially, the question asks if there has been an increase in women hating men since the hardcore feminist movement began? As far as I know, the feminist movement began to gain a voice/recognition primarily in the late 1960's to early 1970's. It began to become hardcore when Hillary ran. Paraphrasing here....but she referenced something about not staying home baking cookies in the kitchen.
So....my question stands as stated in the beginning.
I do not know, that is why I ask.

It's not any different then the increase in hate for white men in general by anyone who has an axe to grind and is looking for someone to blame.You name it, and it's a mans fault.
It's all the previous programming that has been embedded in our subconscious for millennia.
Some women pass it on to their children and grand children from generation to generation.
Some may do it consciously..while others are not even aware of it. But they do it.
Probably due to the fact that suddenly women are becoming aware (of this subconscious programming)..either consciously or subconsciously...and they are getting their power back..somehow.
Here I see many women circles where men are not allowed. Why? You wonder..hmmm...
It all looks like some kind of sect to me..
I've even heard once one of the women saying that "men were unnecessary beings"!!!!
Strangely enough...that woman had 2 sons!!
when women were born to be attracted men, wouldn't make sense they hate them as well, so no ..to hate was not a born given must.
I’ve never had women hate me or dislike me, not that I can remember. They’ve mostly always been cool with me, and I try to be cool with them.
If they should hit on me/flirt, I just smile and say, “Aww-right!”
If they should reject me, cuss me out, or have a “Johnny was here” tattoo. Then, I do this for a quick moment
Then move on.
Hate VS love…which emotion is stronger…in most western women? It should be love, but it’s not looking, that way
If an ideology, which rules your life, so much, turns your heart into stone and fuels your negative emotions, then Is that a healthy thing to believe in and your idea of being happy, fulfilled and content?
Very nice to hear from you. That is an interesting theory that it has always been sort of ingrained....this hate for men....within some women. Hmmmm...I suppose. I have never gave that much thought. I would think that we all start out from innocence with infancy. But...as I recall your words more....you are saying it is being passed on from mother to daughter....subconsciously or consciously then and going on for many of years. What is this hate developed from I wonder?
You know Daniela...thanks to our local blogger here Jegas....I just discovered a very informative series of personal testimonials....many from experts in their fields...on YouTube...the TedX series. This one I found especially interesting...and maybe answering some questions about some women and perhaps their unease with some men.....certainly an eye opener. This is one of countless testimonials I have discovered about countless topics.
I agree with much of what you say...if not all. Sure, men and women do get hurt in relationships. Hopefully in the end, that hurt can be converted to good....as in learning, moving forward, and enhancing.
This subject has been brought up because it seems to me (maybe I am just misjudging a bit here) but it seems to me that some women feel that it is revenge:thirty....and emotionally hurting men is the meal of the day.
How are you and welcome. Like I state in the my original post..."I do not know, thatis why I ask."
However, I have a question for you. Are you single? If so, let me know when you find your next long lasting, meaningful, loving relationship with a woman.
Thank you for sharing...nice to hear from you.
First off, thank you for sharing your other blog...I forgot what it is called but you shared a link in there that I checked out. Through that link, I have found a series of very informative personal testimonials from professionals....very good stuff. So, thanks for that.
Now, to your initial response on this blog. What you have said is pretty much inline to what I have seen, heard, and experienced myself. Perhaps there is more to the story than what us men care to admit to ourselves.
I do agree with you, there are women haters out there too. I wonder, do you see an increased outright show of deliberate disrespect to you from men? I forget what word you used...was it 'unhappy' with the roles they played. If so, I wonder who put them in those roles?
Just a thought that crossed my mind.
You are right...and I am not making any big deal about anything....but we men should just move on if it is clearly shown that we are not good enough.
Your stories make Robert's sound like children's bed time stories.
I was raised in a household where a father is respected and admired, and my mom's teachings and influence on me about boys play a big role on how i view men. Though i have bad experience with some men, that doesn't make me hate all men in general.
Or Im just eternally optimistic, in which case, my point is moot.
Thank you...I am happy you appreciated the blog. As with responses...first, if I am posting a blog and allowing responses, I should hope for responses and an attempt at a two-way dialect. Secondly, if somebody is willing to take their time and offer their genuine articulated thoughts on the matter, I feel I owe them that with my response to them.
If I am understanding you correctly Red, with your participation of those events, a lot of it was from the drive of feeling part of something....perhaps anyway....more so than what the event represented itself.
You know, I have witness something similar...if I have interpreted what you said correctly. When going to auctions...I see a lot of people there. I think to myself, hmmm, there is going to be a lot of competitive bidding today. Usually, the larger the crowd, the more bidding there is. However, after going to 1000's of auctions over 20 years or so, I have discovered many auction goers just go because they like auctions...the atmosphere of them...they have no intention at all at bidding/winning anything.
Perhaps, the stimulation of emotions (auctions stimulate a lot of emotions with bidders) with these events, makes the participate feel more alive? At very minimum, it fights of the monotonousness nature of daily life with many?
Thank you for sharing your experience....that is concerning with what you say. ...."many"
If women..or men for that matter...operate day to day life affairs with a bias of hate for the opposite gender, I would think pretty soon we will have a distancing from each other...or there will be widespread conflict between to two.
Because, as a rule of thumb it is said, you cannot communicate/associate with irrationality, without becoming irrational yourself. (not in all cases...but as a rule of thumb) The other way to communicate/associate with irrationality, is to distance yourself from it.
The way I see the path of the world right now....there is both conflict/distancing that is growing between genders.
Thank you all...very good information.
I totally agree with remaining optimistic in life. :)
....not to mention, everything else you say too I agree with.
I know in the Philippines that divorce is difficult...which has couples remain together. Just the symbolism that creates to children as they grow speaks volumes. Now, to agree or disagree with the policy there about divorce is another blog in and of itself.
A lot of how we perceive the world as adults has blossomed from when we were children.
"Most men would give everything they have for a kind, gentle, respectful, loving, hard working, trustworthy, modest and intelligent woman" I agree with that statement. Daniela has talked about how women have certain traits that have through the generations have been passed down to them...either consciously or sub-consciously. Well, I think the same can be said about men. A woman once told me...and I never realized this...but she said, it is inherent in men for them to want to take care of the woman in his life. That statement aligns with what you just mentioned there.
"Men...treated as second class people" That sort of mindset is supported when you watch media outlets and they specifically point out white men as being some sort of evil.
I am not too aware of how children are being treated these days. But I do know (well, have heard) that if you are going to change a society, start with the children.
My blog tomorrow is about sunflowers.
Just wondering Molly. :) Like I said with KN, I am just wondering if this hate is increasing or not among women toward men. I don't know....and I hope we are just all being manipulated or brainwashed....but it really seems like a lot of men who have responded on the blog here seems to think it might be.
....just joking
You know, I was just listening to a seminar from a Yale graduate and he referenced all his rich intelligent friends. He mentioned something about all of them having their second spouses....maybe money talks these days....and a lot of it.
