Do women think, that men are emotionless robots?

Question

Like no feelings, no emotions. Although we do bleed.

I think that they aren’t robots but misogyny does try to reinforce that idea. Boys are taught not to cry or deal with emotions or trauma. Parents neglect them more often and that is actually not a good thing though I’m sure young guys sometimes appreciate less parental supervision.
I truly think that men simply aren’t taught to be emotional which is terrible. They aren’t taught empathy as much as girls despite biologically having less of that. Women are more in tune with themselves and with others.
A lot of men lash out when they’re hurt because they lack the tools to grow and mature. Think about incels. There is a whole community of men who feel entitled to sex because they do not know how to handle the emotions that arise from rejection. They truly are just self loathing and angry but instead place blame on women that haven’t done anything and men they wish they were.
Think about hook up culture. Men compartmentalize. It’s very hard for them to treat their hook ups right because they put distinctions between people. They categorize. This is what makes it hard for them to say “hey I only want to have a sexual relationship with this girl but I still respect and have affection for her because I like her as a person”. So instead they think “well she is easy and I just sleep with her and I don’t want to get emotionally attached so I’ll act nice but if she does anything I find romantic I will be mean because I do not know how to communicate that I do not know how to treat all women with respect”
Sorry if that didn’t make sense. Look up the Madonna-whore complex. That will help explain.
Anyways men are just innately different than women and in my opinion have to work harder to be empathetic beings because of societal norms. Sometimes even just seeing comments when a woman talks about sexual assault worries me because men truly don’t experience the same kind of thing and can’t empathize with women. This is also why so much rape takes place and victim blaming too. I think men need to work on recognizing their privilege and working through their own emotions. that in itself will help them to empathize with others and be better people.

NoI personally do not believe that. I believe men think they have to appear that way either from the way they were raised or by stupid societal standards of how a real man behaves or what is manly. And yes, some women are guilty of acting like men shouldn't show emotion. But there's men that also do that to other men calling them simps, soy boy and other childish insults.
Showing/having emotions makes people human...

All men are different , I watch men do the most stupidest or crazy things I believe it's just because they haven't found themselves for me personally I know exactly who I am and I'm not afraid to be that person I don't need to pretend that I'm anybody else. I kind of like myself I'm not afraid to take anything on and the best part about it is I don't have to prove it I don't have to prove anything to anybody except for myself. Just because I think something doesn't mean that I'm right and I'm not afraid to say that I was wrong something happens to somebody I love I'm not afraid to show I hurt my pain. If somebody is doing something to hurt somebody I love or even somebody I don't know or even a pet I'll be the first one to stand up make sure it stops. One of the best things about me and one of the worst things about me is on the empath and I feel people's emotions I have felt the worst of the worst and I have felt the best of the best and on any given situation there is a reason to have them to feel them and to understand them respect them and don't lose control of them

I feel just as much as anyone.
I've had a tough time coming to grips with the reality that it's okay to be emotional sometimes. I grew up with a strict father who didn't show too much emotion. I think men are conditioned not to display emotion or affection from such an early age as boys and we see our role models do it that we take on these traits ourselves.
I never learned to deal with my emotions. I just always watched my dad shove them down and meanwhile my step-dads drank so I ended up with my own coping method doing tons of drugs for years. I had to move past that and realize that in a lot of ways I'm still that boy I was years ago... I'm just kind of bigger. And tattooed.

Women don't really help the matter all the time though. Its a case of good and bad on both sides. No one is an angel and its all not quite black and white.

Account · Answer

No, although some pretend to be that way or many of them have been raised in a way that doesn't help them develop empathy that much.

coachTanthony · Answer

Men don't have safe spaces to be vulnerable so of course women think this. It's up to the woman to give men a save space to be vulnerable otherwise you will keep getting manly men who keep it all in... good luck with all that.

ShaTTeredMasterpeace · Answer

I try my best not to make sweeping and generalizing statements like this. I don't think all men are emotionless robots, nor do I think that other women feel like that. I think men feel like they have to hide emotion and be tough 24/7. It is unhealthy to not show emotion. To not feel like you can have feelings. I do feel like because there is such a stigma on men showing emotion, that there are a lot of damaged men walking around. But I don't feel like it's women who are to blame. Most men will look down on other men that are tune and in touch with their feelings. They see it as feminine and will usually give these other men shit about it. Women are more open and understanding then given credit for.

Browneye57 · Answer

No, they actually think we're emotional train-wrecks like they are. It's called projecting - and they're really good at it. They naturally assume if they feel a certain way that everybody else does too. It's part of their solipsism.

The truth is, men do have emotions, but it's not anything like what women have. A man's brain runs on facts and logic, a woman's on feelings and emotion. It's a completley different dynamic of how the brain works. And why you cannot win an argument with a woman, cuz no matter what facts or logic you have to backup your position, she will always turn it around to be about her feelings.

The last thing any woman wants is for her man to break down into tears every time she does. What she really wants is for her man to be her emotional ROCK. A lighthouse in her stormy seas of feelings and emotions swirling around in her little head. :)

RingOfFire · Answer

Whether we like it or not, the human race is still part of the natural world filled with natural animal instincts. And humans are part of the animal kingdom, and like other animals competitive, territorial and combative. Human males are built for doing the fighting and providing protection. Millions of years of evolution designed them that way both physically and mentally. Emotions conflict with that natural role. You don't want emotions when you have to tear the other guy to pieces. That interferes with your mission. I believe that's why men have developed the ability to turn off their emotions. It's a natural consequence of being designed to be the warriors and protectors of their species.

little_rose · Answer

No, not at all... at least I don't think that.
Men have feelings just like everyone else. It's true that society somehow forces them to hide their emotions but women hide feelings as well. That is why we should all be kind to each other. It's not about one gender suffering more than the other. It's not something you can compare anyway.
I think it's high time to start treating people, not just one specific gender, with love and respect.

I'm sorry if I've gone too far with this or if I sound a little too soft. I just hate how harsh we are with each other, not just across gender or race but just as humans.

Aakash_Hangargi · Answer

No matter what comment section says.

There are very less or even rare women who own upto men being emotional and tolerate them.

Lol women are accepted for being emorional on expense of men being emotion variant bc someone has to hold the mantle be the bearer.

For example if a woman is alone and has achieved some success in her life.

She would behave in a way same as men and but they loose the element of feminenity the nurturing and caring part they become cold and stiff.

They become rigid unshakeable personalities same as men

But modt men suck it up even though they are blamed.

Lol if a man is like highly sensitive or emotional he would be rejected and be told that I don't want to be your mom I want a partner honestly I don't see many woman accepting an emotional man

FlutteringFeelings · Answer

I used to think that before because of my experiences but over the years I learned and seen different things. I understand now that they have emotions but they mask it because they feel as if it’s the right thing to do. I learned that they seemed like emotionless robots because they do not show their emotions.

Djaay · Answer

Men generally express themselfs through achievements acquired , through actions that are worthy and by generous gestures or overwhelming joy. Words hardly articulate an over whelming sensation for men to adherently cry over. We're generally not in a state of uncertainty to be overwhelmed to a point of distress tearing unless of course a tragedy or etc.. like anyone else. Men are not women and women are not men and never will be. Women should stop with all the wimpy prospect of men being likewise to themselfs. And women should certainly stop with the hard ass pretending they're just like men emotionally.

NotTacocaT6969 · Answer

Some women believe that nonsense about emotions being unmanly.  That’s unfair and has been the primary cause of many male suicides. Emotions are part of being human.  Men are human too.

Anonymous · Answer

As much as men like to bully other men for showing emotion, us women know better. You can try to hide to your feelings to preserve your toxic masculinity, but we know you're just faking it.

When men stop seeing emotions as a sign of "weakness" and "femininity", then they'll be less hesitant to show them. At the end of the day, having to hide your emotions is a problem men have created for themselves. Women see no problem with expressing one's feelings. If anything, we often encourage you to express your feelings with us.

Jjpayne · Answer

I think men do themselves a disservice by being too sexual, too stereotypical and not being connected in meaningful ways with others. Think, most women like men that do or know poetry, why do you think that is? It's not something to learn simply to get girls but why do girls like that? Being a man for them but also being in touch with your emotional side too

devilish-cutie · Answer

no, they just rather express it trough anger than any other emotion lol
anyways, dont think men are less emotional than women but I think most are rather to give more value to rationality over emotions

cth96190 · Answer

If men did not have a different set of emotions and a distinctly male way of processing things, our species would have gone extinct before it got going.
Men have to be able to gut an enemy, then wash the blood off and go home to their children.
That is one of a list of reasons why women do not have a place in combat.

red324 · Answer

I hope not. I've been having a hard time the last month or so after this girl dumped me randomly after saying all the things a woman that likes a guy would say. Normally i'd just find another girl, but i've been in a rut with online dating lately. I haven't gotten many matches since covid started and me being an introvert that doesn't have much of a social circle or go out much uses it as a primary way to meet girls.

Bellatris · Answer

They're far less likely to show their emotions, less likely to share them. For many it's all about pretending to be "tough", and "self-reliant", a man in need of no one, "independent" and all that other crap that's clearly just for show.

mistixs · Answer

I don't think so. Some radical feminists do but it's really a fringe belief.

From my own experiences many dudes put on terrible performances

I'm a very apathetic & monotonic type & I've had many guys who would come off as these "silent killas" get flustered real quick when I would go on the offensive literally when they provoked meThey would stutter & trample over their words & their pitch would get higher& a lot of these dudes were over 5'10/200lb by the way

lovelornlady1207 · Answer

No, I certainly don’t. I have seen men have emotions. I saw my last boyfriend cry. Men have emotions, trust me. They often don’t express how they really feel because there’s a whole stigma with men and emotions, that they have to act masculine. I think it’s total BS. Men should feel free to express their emotions when they feel them and not have to hide them. I find it very attractive when a man can express how he truly feels. He doesn’t try to be tough.

MemeSupreme · Answer

this question reminds me of when arnold tries to smile in terminator 2 and fake emotions lol but no they're not emotionless robots. pretty ignorant if you think that

Anonymous · Answer

The answer is Yes for the most part. Women don't think men are robots without emotion, it is just they don't want to deal with the negative aspect of emotions from men, which include sadness, depression etc. This is why male suicide is so high as most men have no outlet and their wives/girlfriend don't really give a fuck. Women often expect men to be their ball and chain and to deal with their negative emotions, not the other way around.

MzAsh · Answer

No but we think men want us to believe they are less emotional than women.

Archerer · Answer

I think in general for women emotions are in the drivers seat with rationality as a back seat driver. For men it is the other way around.

JSmuve · Answer

No, they know guys have emotions. However, they think those emotions are limited to hungry, horny, and sleepy with the occasional angry and happy thrown in there from time to time like when we play call of duty.

KatherineJ · Answer

No, but I do think they tend to hide what they are feeling a lot more than most women do.

lsksni · Answer

I do sometimes feel that my emotions mean nothing. So, I have stopped showing it to anyone. Some of my friends say to talk about it, but I know that the reply is likely to be "stop being a pussy" or something like that.

IAMNathanael · Answer

Maybe some do. But if we appear emotionless then it's probably just a shell on the outside.

John_Doesnt · Answer

Having emotions is natural, but showing them is not. Male animals in the wild will typically hide when they are injured or scared.
Plus science has proven that crying is produced from the ovaries and vagina.

Kingofkings1992 · Answer

No, they do not think that. Some men bottle up their emotions because they think it makes them a tough guy. In reality, men are just as emotional, if not more so than women.

We all see things from a perspective, and mens tends to be less emotional and more systematic. Emotion pulls you around, though it feels nice, it doesn't provide optimal results in life
