I have had stalkers -- fairly mild stuff, luckily... I wasn't exactly afraid for my life or anything, but it was still creepy. Been sexually harassed by a few different girls a few times at work and school "as a joke," (of course, my managers/teachers laughed it off)... but no showing up to my house or calling me or anything...
I was surprised that an ex wasn't more of a stalker, but luckily, she was vengeful enough to immediately delete everything (phone numbers, etc) if she was in a mood, so anything she learned about my address, phone number, etc, she was luckily a bit too forgetful to remember how to get there (Plus I have moved, so... if she's "stalking me" I know nothing about it).
There was a girl who came late to a party a bunch of friends and I were doing a AirBnB type thing for a big tournament game, and she shows up about an hour before we all went to bed, and she got demanding and creepy real fast with me (I didn't know her). I thought she might come at me when I was sleeping and more vulnerable - she gave off that air about her. I didn't sleep.
Woo... that elevator didn't go all the way to the top, if you know what I mean.

Yeah. I’ve had a couple of stalkers. It’s scary because there’s absolutely no recourse for men. If we haven’t been attacked yet, we need to quit being dramatic. If we have been attacked, we should be a man about it and accept that we did something to deserve it. If we feel the need to defend ourselves, we become the villain and end up in jail or prison. These views are so pervasive that they’re almost universal. Family and friends won’t get involved. Police won’t help. Even if a psychologist believes us, their training is always to treat men as victimizers, not victims. We’re several generations from having discussions about male victims of abuse at the hands of women that reach far and wide enough to actually inspire meaningful change.
(Girl… there ARE some scary women out there…)
I'm curious to see what the fellas say about this one, but also wanted to add that so many guys go for really nutty/scary women because of their looks… and stick with them for an eternity before registering that they need to part ways with her.
somes mens can be intimidated if you look to confident

Men on GAG I think carry the I am scared of women flag lol
The closest thing to me being afraid of a woman was when I was about 10, and at the school bus stop waiting for the school bus, and the kids goaded a stocky 12-year-old girl (who was about a foot taller and 40 pounds heavier than me) into fighting me. Mostly, at the time, I'd never been in a fight and I was terrified of hitting a girl and being blamed for the whole thing, even though I'd done nothing to initiate it and was only defending myself. Ultimately, she wasn't much of a fighter, and I managed to hit her once pretty good, and that ended things.
Since then, I can't remember any situation where I was afraid of a woman.
Yes when I was in high school because I was too awkward and didn't understand social situations so I was anxious af of doing something wrong, embarrassing myself etc. I'm autistic and it's very difficult. In the beginning you have no clue what you're supposed to do. People tell you just be confident but it's hard when you actually don't know what to do. And also you have the feeling that everyone is watching you and everyone will think you like a girl if you go talk to her and judge you based on how you do. That's what it felt like. Now I have a girlfriend and I'm not scared of her so that's good :) And I can talk to women easily. There could still be certain scenarios that could be anxiety inducing I guess but I haven't had to deal with that.
There were some scary women at high school back in the day , and they could really bring you down emotionally ( to a degree physically ) , I was pretty scared of a number of them , I was scared to ask them out ( not of them saying No , but they'd tell everybody - ridicule ) , also you could get kicked in the balls for no reason , and you could not really react..
Around 17/ 18 all changed for the positive , I found a girlfriend who was 15 , and I started expanding my area route , which made a big difference and I found a heap of different girls , from there I've really never had any fear sine..
But at 16 years , they scared the sht out of me , especially Ms C.. Ohhh.
I'll be honest yes. I worked at a hospital before in shipping and delivery paid good but this woman didn't like me because she was a boomer and found out I was in low income paying like $800 for rent.. Anytime She saw me she made it her mission to ask me about my rent in front of her other boomer friends.. Woman was like 60 years old too younger than my mom. I don't know what to say to that i live in low income but im working towards nursing to pull me out.. Im low income but dont do crime its isane world we live in
I've been scared of women pretty much my entire life. Even when I was a little kid I was scared of girls. I've always felt like I bother them just by being near them. Logically I know that's not true, but I've never been able to shake the feeling that I'm a nuisance to women even when I don't say or do anything. It makes it really hard to approach women in any context.
Yes. When I was falsely accused and served an ex parte PPO. I was afraid to go anywhere on campus. I would dry heave into my toilet every morning afraid to go to class knowing she was somewhere on campus and had the power to have me arrested whenever she wanted… I had to avoid entire parts of campus.
When I was a teenager I was afraid of girls. Even if I knew that a girl liked me I still could not work up the guts to ask her out. I think I was afraid she would laugh or tell everyone what a loser I was.
Nope.
Probably the closest thing was when some woman falsely accused me of sexual harassment when I was a personal trainer which all I was doing was my job and the duties I was supposed to be doing but that just pissed me off more then anything it didn't make me afraid of women.
- u
yes... when I was six years old
and they would chase me around all over the place
Scared? No. Wary? Yes.
There are some creepy women out there, sometimes they have an incredibly difficult time taking no to their advances as a legitimate answer.
Yes! I was verbally assaulted once a bus because I was talking about the snow. I'm from Florida so it was the first time I saw snow in a while. This lady stood up and yelled "This is my quiet time!" Turns out she was a school principal. Lol
Then I hired a dating coach because I was traumatized and she told me I smell bad and she can't help me.. I made her give me a refund. HahahaI nearly shot a woman who pulled a kitchen knife on my partner and me when I was a cop. We were in a very small room on a domestic, when she pulled this knife out of her sweater sleeve and began waving it around. My partner distracted her and I tackled her. Man, if I had to cut loose with my.45 it would have been a bad scene.
Never to be honest , I don't see any possible reason
Sorry women are too cute to be scary
I've dealt with women who were mentally and emotionally abusive. The abuse got so bad I had to leave before it turned physical
I've only been scared of 2 women. one being my Mum as a child whenever I did anything wrong, and the Headmistress at school who was very strict. Otherwise? No.
I'm nervous around most women I don't know well. I just don't know what to talk about with them.
Women who are good at being manipulative and vindictive are scary because they can easily ruin your life.
Scared of woman in what regard lol women are about as dangerous as your average carpenter ant is to a human
Just my mom, aunts n grandma. Oh and those sadistic bitch nuns in Catholic school. I hope they're all in hell.
I don't think men are scared of the equivalent of a 14 year old boy with boobs and vagina
