Why Do So Many Women Refuse to Take Responsibility For Their Actions?

Question

Granted, I am the *last* person to talk in light of how often I blame others for my problems, as my MyTakes even indicate. But I will openly admit it, and acknowledge that it is something I need to work on, as members on here have advised.

That said, it seems like many (but not all) women in the West today are completely incapable of owning up to the consequences of their own actions, of taking responsibility.

Their hatred of "slut shaming" is a huge example.

Just refer to the reactions of butthurt women on my recent MyTake. Granted, again, I went a little over the top because I am a very disturbed and struggling man who needs professional help. And I will be the first one to acknowledge that and apologize for it.

But the principal remains true.

A person's past DOES define who they are in the present and a woman'a sexual history is not excluded from that. They chose to be promiscuous and engage in a controversial behavior. Why is it so hard for them to accept that some - arguably even the majority - of men would be turned off by it for whatever reason (s)?

But no,

Instead they'll whine relentlessly about how that is so sexist and misogynistic in an allegedly sexually "liberated" world where a woman's number should not count, again ignoring the fact that their past DOES define their present and that they chose to engage in such behavior.

This is just one example. But there are many. Abortion is another, a woman resorting to murder because she cannot own up to the fact that she took the risk of getting pregnant. Alimony yet another, women being paid even though they took the risk of marrying a man who would divorce them. Heck, this whole feminist "drunk sex is rape" is the ultimate example of women dodging responsibility, claiming that sex is rape just because they regret having it the next day.

What gives?

I don't think the issue of being against slut-shaming being so widely practiced against women is so much about where the 'blame' lays, but more in the fact that so many men feel like a woman should be banned of expressing or simply acknowledging the fact that she has sexual desires. Which for many is a huge part of who they are, as much as you may wish were otherwise.

'Instead they'll whine relentlessly about how that is so sexist and misogynistic in an allegedly sexually "liberated" world where a woman's number should not count'
... so you're saying women are as praised for tehir sexuality as men? Not counting men who often almost literally salivate and ogle like untrained animals will looking at a female just because she's wearing a t-shirt so 'showing some skin'. That men are viewed as heroes most of the time if they've fucked a lot of women, whereas women are deemed as 'whores' and insulted repeatedly, if not raped/stoned to death in more extreme cases, for having done exactly the same thing?

After years of men being able to fuck whoever with no judgement, i think you should stfu about women. Unless people judge men the same, which majority of people don't, then they have no say. Morals are morals, being male or female doesn't change what is moral or immoral.

And when guys say most men don't like sluts, it's so stupid. How are these women sluts if most men don't like it? Where are they finding the men to fuck since most don't like them? Truthfully, some men are sluts, some women are sluts, some don't care if their partner was slutty before, and that's it. If you don't want used up pussy, which i understand because I don't want used up dick, then don't have it. But don't pretend "most" men don't like it, when that makes no sense otherwise they couldn't be sluts.

Or are you one of these "poor men, it's not their fault they sleep with so many women, they're so weak and powerless against female sexuality and women make them have sex"

Can you stop? Seriously, you kept going back and forth, you need to stop blaming everyone for your misfortune. You want others to be holding themselves accountable, perhaps you should start with yourself.

I don't know whats going on in your life, but you really need to stop using your moments of weakness to become so petty and hypocritical.
I dont really like you I will admit, but seeing you go back and forth in despair I still feel bad for you. Also, before you stood by your opinions (again, not always that I agreed with) but now you're abandoning them because of a heartache or other reason and it looks so weak and sad. You're losing yourself, and you need to stop and reeavalute yourself.

Women are akin to children. We look at women's obsession with height for example and one of the most common reason you hear women like tall men is because they can rest their head on his chest and feel safe. In short they are all looking for some form of father figure. I often consider women as sort of recruiters in a sense.

Now women don't responsibility because society panders to them and babies them. If we look at laws, women get less sentence time for crimes men get full penalty for. We often make excuses for women when things go wrong in their life and basically put on kid's gloves for them. So women are use to be treated like babies and so act like that.

They don't take responsibility for their actions because they never had or need to. Someone will pay the tab for their mistake such as society having to pay for all these children of single mothers who choose men that ended up leaving them.

You're full of shit.

"Abortion is another, a woman resorting to murder because she cannot own up to the fact that she took the risk of getting pregnant." Always as simple as that in your world?

".. women being paid even though they took the risk of marrying a man who would divorce them." Always as simple as that in your world too?

"... women dodging responsibility, claiming that sex is rape just because they regret having it the next day." What world do live in?

A persons past does define them, yes, but we also each have a future, and we all live in the present too. We can all change and work at redifining ourselves.

Finally, I'm going to suggest an amendment to your question. How about... Why Do So Many PEOPLE Refuse to Take Responsibility For Their Actions?

I don't respect anyone who whines, blames others, and shirks responsibility. That's how people become society's losers. It's anybody, not just one gender.

kellyg83 · Answer

because in today's world, women are taught that playing the victim can get you pretty much anything. many people, including many women, have latched onto this behavior and used it to their advantage. however, your past does not define your present. it only works that way if you allow it to. hell, we all know that society is full of double standard hypocrites. so in the end, the only one who can decide if your actions are right is you. society's opinion is worthless.

Hurrah for whiny bitch😒, in short...

feminismisnarcissism · Answer

because that's what feminism is-empowerment is really entitlement. And a strong woman according to feminism is one that is never held accountable via "choices" for anything she does. Women are always the victim, that's feminism in a nutshell. get used to it, reject it and don't fall victim to the sexist apartheid culture it's created while masquerading as "equality".

Men should just learn how to keep it in their pants and if there is force without consent no matter what gender it is rape

The only woman without a number is either a nun ( but not necessarily), permanently taken (married etc.), asexual, or Virgin Mary. I think the number, now this is controversial, should be ENCOURAGING because it denotes the woman is actively seeking a perfect mate and you could be it, be better than all the others. But no. How can men have a thousand previous partners and women none? It is logically impossible. I am very disturbed myself too let me tell I have looks, intelligence, status, my own money, a job, yadda yadda and men still treat me like scum. Just like you wrote about women in your takes. I don't know. Some people just have bad freaking luck man. It is just a rotten shooting star. I'm just as clueless as you are.

You sound very insecure. You need a new motivation in your life that will help you rather than make you feel awful about yourself all the time. Find something you really enjoy and dive yourself into it. Go out more, meet new people. I garuntee the only reason why you are feeling like this is because you think other people have it better than you. Thats not the case at all. You have a lot of things people would love to have. I love your writing skills, granted I don't ever agree with what they say haha. But you have talent. Focus on the positives in your life. Forget the negatives. Soon enough, you will be a much happier person. :)

Same reasons why guys blame other people for their shortcomings instead of being a man & trying to better themselves OP. Playing the victim is just easier, you should know that.
