Girls, what is your viewpoint, perspective, and experience with and of the male gender till your present point in life?

I have seen that polarization is there from women, and men too towards women. But I have also seen some people who think in between the two extreme points.

So... what are your thoughts and opinions on this question?

Men as a gender are incredible. Men as a group are rather... forgive my insult, but stupid? Men as individuals vary, of course, but most of them fall on the low-effort end of the spectrum - whether that be socially, physically, or mentally.

I don't believe this to be part of their identity, simply how they've chosen to go about in their lives, and I think it may be influenced by other things, so it's not entirely their fault. On the other hand, the very presence of legitimately interesting, powerful, and gentle males leaves the question: Why can't all men be like that? Not being rich, I understand - that's more about luck. Same thing with natural appearance and "endowment" size. But being genuine, intelligent, kind, and emotionally strong? That seems like it COULD be universal, with some attention and effort.

Overall, I love my dad, and I think men are super cool in theory - less so in practice.

"but most of them fall on the low-effort end of the spectrum - whether that be socially, physically, or mentally"
Thank you for the feedback.😃 I have also been noticing the trend of living a free life more in guys than in girls. But the reality cannot be farther than that. Girls are more responsible starting right from academics. I have noticed that too. I, personally, am in the process to adopt the behavior exhibited by girls, overall, in responsibility section.

"But being genuine, intelligent, kind, and emotionally strong? That seems like it COULD be universal, with some attention and effort."
You just mentioned the qualities that CAN be adopted by anyone, but very few put in the effort or even know in first place to put the effort.

Honestly, you gave me the pointers to become a better human for myself, my future wife/girlfriend, and my family. Thank you. Seriously.🙂👍

I will be saving your whole opinion in my personal diary. Its that helpful.

There's some useful, some that make a big difference, some that waste their lives, and some that do something w/their lives.. Just the same as women. And where does it all start? Childhood. How we were brought up usually reflects our choices in early life. Especially teens/young adults. So the men that fuck up may have grown up in a dysfunctional family, yet women like to criticize that situation, which is pretty messed up. What about the women that get pregnant so young? Many do that b/c they want to run away from home. Or an easy access to government help. I think men are crucial to the world just as women are. No matter where ur from, race, ethnicity, etc.

There are good men, and there are bad men, and there are meh men. You can usually tell who they are pretty easily by how they treat others, talk, and what sort of friends they have. When you only associate with good men and avoid the bad men, life is easy.

More good than bad... Many lessons learned... Many goals achieved... yea that's about it. I’ll always love men and not let a few bad apples spoil the whole bunch

There are good and bad men in the world, but unfortunately the bad ones get more media attention and more negative press. Most men are good and I have been blessed to have a lot of good ones in my life.

I personally dont like to say all of a certain group of people are any certain way because its not true. There are stereotypes and common things of course but no one person is going to tick every single box off within a given stereotype...

There are good men and there are bad men. Just like there are good women and bad women. Sex or gender doesn’t change that.
