Why is it that women who try to be "one of the guys" upset when they get treated like one of the guys?

Usually when that happens it's because they wanted to get into the group for a different reason. Being treated like "one of the guys" usually means you might get jokes thrown at you, and your about to hear a lot of "dirty" and/or "guy talk." This only works if the women doesn't mind it or takes part in it personally. I have had a lot of male friends throughout my life, and what I've discovered is that you can't complain about everything they do and/or say for no good reason, or take offense to jokes that have no ill intent. That's how groups of guys are usually, that's how they bond. And if you don't except that bond it's not going to work. I'm not saying put up with blatant disrespect, nobody with any self respect puts up with that. But just because ben makes a joke about your grown out highlights, doesn't mean he's a horrible person. It's all in fun. That's just how it is.

Depends on what you mean by “treated like one of the guys”. Like if my guy friends started punching me like they do to each other, then yeah I’d be pretty upset. But if being treated like one of the guys just means having a platonic relationship with a bunch of dudes then I’m completely fine with that.

I doubt this happens because I don't believe men are capable of treating women like they treat men.

But in those cases that this does happen I'm guessing is because women don't seem to understand that men don't treat each other that well (by women's standards). Even as friends , men usually pretty much bully each other with jokes and jabs just for fun. At least that's my experience
