I distrust the same gender more than the opposite gender the same didn't people normally lie to my face and say oh well I didn't realize blah blah blah or oh I didn't realize you two were still together and they'll be the ones invading my territory if that makes sense

To be honest from all your questions lately, doesn't sound like you mistrust them equally. Infact you kept playing about how you don't trust this new girl because of your old girl..
That's partially true, but only because I don't get intimate with men. But I am trying to exercise the same level of caution with both genders, especially now that I'm in a bid for a promotion at work and will probably have to trample on someone.
because all my life I've been told by the opposite gender that i'm somehow inferior to them and that my gender is horrible. it turned out great, because I did everything I could to come out on top, but it left me with GREAT distrust for girls which is most assuredly irrational but it's deeply rooted
Because humans are the only ones who are capable of hurting us. also I think it has to do with conflict and not knowing how to work as a team or compromise. Men want power, women want power... everyone wants power but n one really wants peace.
lol I don't know that’s someone with a chip on their shoulder, I however am with you, I distrust everyone not just male or female. It’s so stupid to rationalize judging an entire gender... I don’t know all men 😭

I'm with you MisterSir, I don't trust most people regardless of gender.
I think most people don't trust the other gender because they've been hurt by them in some way (rejection, break ups, cheating, etc.)

For some reason, I misread the reader and thought @MisterSir made this question lmao. I still stand by my opinion.
I don't distrust by default and try to avoid that. I've never been betrayed by a man or a woman and have no problems with either. I try to avoid generalizations but I know things happens to people that can contribute. As long as you don't make them distrust your gender by doing things to their gender because of things someone else did to you, then it's all fine.
I think it's not understanding the differing ways that their brains work. since male and female brains have a few different types of patterns from their respective counterparts, I'd say that's at least one thing that contributes, since it influences perception of one's own and the opposite gender, as well as interactions with the opposite gender and corresponding behavior.
It's something your taught from birth.. boys sports are separate from girls. Separate bathrooms. Even all boys or all girls schools. It's an old tradition dating back to beginning..
Because some guys feign friendship and fondness just to get into a girl's pants. Those kind of men just play nice until they get what they want and then ghey show their true colors.
I do not trust people in general , regardless of gender. Too many negative experiences would be why , in all cases. Give me ferrets and dogs over people anytime !!
It only takes one bad person to ruin the reputation of all other people of that gender. It's harder to trust someone that we don't understand, and guys and girls will never fully understand each other.
I think i distrust women to an extent, not much more than id distrust anyone else though, i think it could be because of the Differances in how we're raised, men are expected and taught to be stronger/not show emotion, so it walls us off.

We all want peace.. It's just very important to everybody that they are the one in charge of the peace goin around.. LMAO!! ☮️
@iamjersey Look around the world hun, does it really look like we want peace when all we have to do is treat each other with kindness and love?

Because a lot of people like to allow the few people that have hurt them to speak for an entire group of people.
They probably distrust the opposite gender so much, because of experiences where the opposite gender acted in a way that was unkind or using them.
agreed, anyone could warrant a distrust because there are bad and good on both sides.
Probably past interactions that didn't end well and they hold it against the rest of the sex as a whole.

This has nothing to do with gender in my mind, trust must be earned
I think it's non gender specific actually. There are BITCHES in BOTH genders lol!
Because the pain we experience in love gone wrong or unrequited love is unique.
