Man Haters.
There was a time when we saw a lot of blogs running men down. For some reason or another, we don’t see them that often lately but when you read some of the comments on the blogs, man haters are still alive and well and thriving in Blogland. Which is peculiar; after all, this is a dating site.
The strange part of it is that the blogs where these anti-male comments appear are seldom about men, so the hate must be very close to the surface. And it is not just random members; it is mostly the same faces. Another odd thing is that most such comments are not really insulting men; they rather carry an undertone of dislike, bitterness, and distrust towards men although some of them are downright offending if not slanderous.
I said it a few times before that writing reveals our souls but when we write a blog, we have the time to sanitize it somewhat though the undertones are subconscious and can never be hidden. Comments on the other hand, are more impulsive and we have less time to think about it. The true self shows much clearer in a comment.
Yes, I know we see the same thing done by men from time to time but not even nearly as often as what the ladies can manage it. Of course being a male, I may not notice it as easy.
It would seem (to me) that men forgive

have a great day my friend
Yes, I think I should have omitted the word 'forget' but it is too late now. It will have some impact on your comment.
Ah, but I can strike it out, not so?
Sad, but true...
Some women don't realize men and women can be equally sensitive. Reactions from a highly sensitive woman who become upset over mostly trivial matters is still more acceptable than that of a sensitive man. Men are expected to hide their feelings, deal with it and keep going. Not surprising women claim they don't understand men. Instead of allowing them to show their feelings, men are expected to box them. Turning a blind eye to those comments work for me.
As you say sad but true.
I, on the other hand, read them and try to understand them. It must be a burden to carry such baggage around with you because it chains you to your suitcase and prevents you from enjoying your life. I fact, it prevents you from living to your full potential.
Yes, I know you are no man hater and I bet some of your best friends are male. We make delightful conversation if given the opportunity.
What disturbs me is when they are now seeking another marriage/relationship when carrying so much resentment around with them. I think that very dangerous. They need to recognise and heal first before they are able to move on.
I haven't seen it much on here but when I have it has been quiet disturbing. I guess being the youngest of 3 awesome brothers (who spoilt me
Here is to all our good guys in CS
And to all who have bad experiences
Being a man eater does not necessarily make you a a lover of men. I mean, I hate roasted meat, that is why I devour it when I see it.
Sorry Dream, no parallel to you.
We all get hurt somewhere along the line but some of us prefer to remember only the good times while others only remember the bad. I had some raw deals in my life but still think back in fondness about those persons. Doting on the bad can only make it worse.
I devour them too Catfoot
Hello my lovely jubbely friend
How many men have you had for breakfast
Well that ain`t nothing of how she likes to bite into a man
I have a notion that she just goes for the succulent portions and spit the rest out.
Shee`ll have a bite of anyone.. but OH how she likes them that write good English, Capital letters and correct language
If you look at the forums, there are some men who don't hold back with their hate and get very personal, it doesn't excuse the behaviour of women (there are some on the forums as well), but I wouldn't want to meet one of these guys in a dark alleyway.
To accumulate that much hate, they must have had more than 1 bad experience - and if someone picks the wrong partner again and again - it's no one's but their own fault.
I happen to like some men
If someone hates, it will show and what type of partner are you going to attract?
After all, they are on a dating website to meet someone.
not a man hater...just like to tease men sometimes...
my thoughts too
At first, I thought it said 'cars'! "Oh, no! Cat has discovered my murky secret!!"
I will take extra care by keeping some cupcake in good supply.
Maybe that is why I avoid the forums. to much hate and nastiness flying around. But is is true what you say. Neither have I seen so many broken people before.
Teasing is ok, to me it is just another form of flirting ehich is ok in my book. It is a pity that not all can understand that.
Well......just 3 this morning, together with my usual Weetbix
You hate men? Don't. it's not all men that have hurt you. Just a few of them. And forgive those who hurt you so you can go on with your live. Don't be a prisoner of your hate.
I supplement my weet-bix with bacon or kippers with eggs. You should try it. Much tastier and less tough than men.
I always have my limits...If you've got nothing better to do one of these days, I could show you what I mean
I just wonder where she starts when she eats them.
Good to see you have had your fill for today
Maybe supper is next on the menu
Absolutely no connection. That song was fiction, Dream is real!
A nightmare?
Why wait until I have nothing better to to. Just create something better.
I read the blog the other day... Oh MY!!!! DC was quiet descriptive in it... Lets say... you would be screaming...
Would that be delight or pain. This is very important. T must know what I'm letting myself into.
Not sure if they are MEN eaters thought
DC, can take hers cold with strawberries and cream
