Well, if I wasn't before, I probably am now. This post just pretty much destroyed any remaining self-esteem I might have had, in that respect

There are a few things I don't know about you, such as your gender, so I'm not sure how you're taking the piece that you read. Since you're upset, I'll assume you to be male, for discussion

Yes, I'm male, and yes, the post hit one of those annoying "soft spots." Ignoring it isn't as easy as if it were something negligible--that's simply something that comes with the territory. Fortunately, I'm never annoyed for long.
It just seems, lately, that picking on males is the "acceptable" new form of Judgement, as all of the other old ones are now unacceptable (rightly so). I'll enjoy the day when the former is no longer acceptable, as well.
Picking on men, particularly *white* men, has been acceptable forever, and has been trendy since at least 1975. And it's a fucking pain in the ass. And there's nothing constructive that *I* can think to do about it, except find other men and help them. Maybe we can eventually *build* that marvelous Male Conspiracy that I've been hearing about all my life but have never witnessed.
She says "I know that you think bitcheswomen only like bad boys and jerkoffs, but we'll get to that in a moment."
Only, she never really does get to that other than to say that we simply think women like jerkoffs because they don't like us. Well, tell you what I'm a gay man and I'm probably a bigger bitch than she is. I happen to like bad boys and jerkoffs and I tend to be somewhat of one myself, so most of her arguments and points pretty much fall flat with me. I'm very specifically disinterested in sex with her. Anyway, be nice? What on earth for? I've got better things to do than try to be anything but me, and if you happen to think that's nice, yay. If you think I'm a jerk, I'm really sorry about that. I wouldn't consider myself nice or not-nice, I can just tell you that some people really like me and some people really do NOT like me
