Maybe because you are a woman so you experience or just noticed this conversations more. Personally i hear more stories of women attack other women on this issues. Now your experience are just as valid as mine.
Now even men are victims of theses kinds of attacks. I believe the statement that women are more unfairly subjected to criticism of this nature that men. And I believe it a byproduct of historical strick gender role that we are in the process of redefining.
My ex-wife has criticized me of not knowing what to wear to not look "retarded". A word she always uses to intimidate me. Boy, am I happy she is out of my apartment!
Patriarchy. You need to realize that all of our history until the last 3 decades, it was a male run society.
Most men on here just hate women cuz they can't get any women. Don't take them too seriously
I hope you are not being serious in that opinion
@ecfresh its always the men who always have troubling accepting reality.
Oh you are serious? Yikes. Frankly you sound a bit Marxist, hope i am wrong.
@ecfresh No Im not serious. women ran the governments while men washed floors and made beds all day.
Whew, close call. I was concerned you were brainwashed by the 3rd wave feminists and believed that the male dominated hierarchies were to source of lots of issues from gender inequalities to abuse. Glad you were not being serious, it’s concerning some people are lost in Marxism and don’t put their faith in something better. Ty for the discussion, cheers.
@ecfresh No, I need to be brainwashed by feminists to understand history of who ruled countries in the old eras.
@ecfresh Don't argue with her then. It is no use. She insulted me and my girlfriend having a 14 years age gap and that I cannot sexually satisfy my girlfriend later on. I never heard that tongues have impotence problems... ;-) And yeah, my penis is my girlfriend's business.
@roland77 You were the one who stated that all girls wanted to date a 42 yr old , your age. Of course thats not true
Nope, I did not say a damn thing like that.
Blames shit on patriarchy
Tells a man lowers himself by dating a stripper basically telling that a stripper is the lowest human beings
Don't listen to her guys she sexist to both men and women
She just mad that no man wants her and that strippers are better looking that she will ever be
@Mr_mayhem You're just mad and bitter cuz you can't get any woman. Nobody takes anything you say seriously
Because many women are shallow and superficial enough that their looks is all they care about.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lipsticks and makeup are not their body, it is an artificial layer of color on their skin. I constantly tell my girlfriend, that there is no need in it for me.
Women do it to themselves. Marketing, influencer marketing, modeling, public relations, these are all industries women dominate in. These industries require you to use your appearance to be successful. Who's selling all the make up to women? Instagram girls who start up their own companies, not men, its women doing it.
sexism, it's a society that objectifies us and most people are ok with that
There is NO such thing as objectification, its natural instinct. Survival of our species depends on it.
@Oram52 True, calling it sexism while it is natural sexuality.
Males are basically visual creatures. Women, I have little understanding of, but believe it's similar to the animal world and reproduction 101. ... in birds, all but 1 species on the planet, the male or cock bird, has all the pretty visual colouration and calls and mating dances etc... to attract the rather drab dull female (henbird) to breed... only the Eclectus parrot of Papua New Guinea is opposite... Sooo, I equate homosapien as similar, except in our breed of animal, mammal... etc, the female is the pretty sex gender. It's simple ABC, birds and bees... 😻
@dandieseled11 Yes, I love looking at my girlfriend's nude pictures a lot. And when I visit her in person, I want to have a long-lasting look on every detail of her body. I always allow her to do the same. Yes, males are into visual (I don't like running porn movies in the background), wanting to see some beautiful boobs and vulva/pussy (spread her lips gently).
Because women are easily manipulated and overly emotional and will buy stupid products to fix themselves and please other people. Men won't really do that as much but media is trying to figure out how to make them as low in confidence also.
Thank you for saying it. Sad to see that so many are being manipulated into buying such trash. I don't mind if she didn't wash her hair with some expensive brand or have no lip stick/makeup at all on her skin. A simple shampoo for washing and a no-name deodorant (being well tested dermatological does it for me at least. :-)
@roland77 you really don't need any of those products... In fact certain parts of the body should only be washed with water unless one was rolling in the mud.
This extensive washing and using too many chemicals I'd very harsh on the biggest organ called our skin. 😕
Yes, true. And as a woman, you may know where to use water only. :-)
@roland77 ☺️😊yes I guess 😛
Simple
Oh shit. Where you been? Haven’t seen you awhile
Working and studying
And fulfil my responsibility
Like what?
Personal familar stuff
Haha okay
Because to men, womens appearance is highly important. To women, men's appearance is less important.
Yes, why?
Because i really want to have sex with a hot girl and i really dont with a not hot girl. And i like to have sex.
with any gil?
giks also luke appearance but not with any guy thu
On first sight, I don't know her characteristics, unless her hair is fancy-colored and short. ;-) But otherwise I mind more her characteristics as I have found out that a matching character is much more important than looks.
That's a highly subjective statement skewed by you being a woman yourself and limited by your few experiences. Don't be so quick to paint the world in an image impulsively conjured by an indignant mind.
I'd say because female attraction is based on appearance and fashion is currently strongly focused on women. It's not the only thing but its a key part
It is like asking "why society scrutinize if a man is being a sissy"
Women = beauty
Man = dominance..
Society will scrutinize a females beauty..
And equally scrutinize a male being sissy..
The female body is like gold.. Irresistible to most men. And some culture forbids it.. The body of a woman is well covered like a queen in my place.. In Africa. Lol
Incels didn't even know it was a word, quite a bit of it though. If people believe everyone is hooking up but them might feel? like its someones fault other than their own. I guess its pussy envy
Because men are visual creatures and too many men are judgmental. As it says in "Are Women the Stronger Sex?" free from obooko, men will often judge a woman by her looks, rather than taking the time to get to know her as a person.
True for those who are into a pretty woman only, I for myself am more into characteristics and lesser in a pretty lady.
It doesn't.
Females do that to themselves.
We don't care nearly as much as they think we do.
Have you asked this question to your husband?
In a male dominant world every guys feels his natural duty to comment upon women without realizing that it is none of their business. Psychologically it satisfies their false supremacy concept.
Because men's lack of good looks can be made up for by money and status. Doesn't happen with women to that extent, sadly.
I just don't care much how I look like. Some haircut here and there, not damaged clothes and not stinky. All okay then.
Because men are way more physical while women are way more psychological
Cuz females choose to let peer pressure and competition get to them... They do not know how to accept themselves that's why women have to take over 3 hours to get ready and spend 10000 on surgery.
Yeah females are weird
Why does society scrutinize so much more male ambition, status, height, "size", personality, confidence, force?
I'm hesitant that women complain about being judged for ONE thing, I wonder if you were judged like men
Women are being judged like us of their "sizes", just look here on GaG for many examples: boob size, labia size and form, butt size and so on.
