Why do we only teach men how to treat their women but we never teach women how to treat their men?

Most things can be taught by nature and nurture, which is love and empathy. You don’t need a book or priest to tell you how to behave. You will behave correctly if you live correctly.

Because we, as a society, don't take women seriously. They're still viewed as, essentially, children, and basically unable to control their own actions. Consequently, we don't teach them accountability, since it doesn't really matter. This is why- well, part of why- "woman" and "victim" are so readily transposed in our society. Remember Mary Kay LeTourneau? She went to prison. Most women who do what she did these days are unlucky if they even get FIRED. A man accused- not with any proof involved, just accused- of the same would be lucky if he lived to see a trial.

Logically, it makes a lot more sense to hold EVERYONE to the same standard, but there are many political and ideological groups that want to do just the opposite.

Women generally already know because they are expected to behave that way with pretty much all men all their lives from the age of 5. Men are not expected to behave any particular way with women. It doesn't even dawn on us that women might be people until we are done with puberty. Any expectations on men's behavior would be much like trying to train a pet rock.

We are apparently doing a terrible job at both.

Because telling women how they should treat men is "sexist" and "degrading". Lmao
