Do men or women handle other people who disagree with them better (more maturely) when it comes to political differences?

[Anonymous]

I have a close friend and confidante in a recovery program who is an awesome young man. He’s actually my sponsor.

He leans progressive and I’m a moderate conservative. We have some differences on opinions with politics. But both of us know some subjects are just off limits. But we respect each other very much otherwise.

But I notice women more than men seem to make very quick and easy judgments about people when they don’t agree with their politics. The only time they give men a (semi) pass is if they find the man physically attractive. But even then it’s only a semi buffer.

To be fair men can be like this too. I’ve seen time and time again where guys seemingly “agree” with a woman’s political POV only if they want to sleep with her. I find that to be absolutely beyond pathetic simp bs.

There was a time many years ago when politically opinionated women actually liked it when guys disagreed with them (because it showed the guy had a backbone). But those times are long past ever since Trump first got elected in 2016. So I usually change the subject/don’t respond in those scenarios. If she keeps going off on it then I won’t associate with her anymore. But I will never change my core beliefs just to impress a woman.

But I find that men I disagree politically are easier to get along with in the real world (definitely not on GAG) then women are. Just as long as we have common ground on something else.

Men handle other people better if they disagree politically

Women handle other people better if they disagree politically

Just FYI this for REAL WORLD interactions. Not GAG interactions. I’ve gotten in on it on here on multiple occasions with random GAGers when it comes to politics.

The thing is I’ve been on and off GAG since 2010. I remember a time politics were much more seldomly mentioned. Debates were more civil basic then too. But that started changing during Obama’s second term in 2012 and then shot off in the stratosphere when Trump was elected.

Notice how mandyfire98 proved my point. I strongly disagreed with her but I didn’t call her any names or labels. She started off by making generalized negative accusations towards men. She didn’t like my responses so she was quick to label my entire debate as “me personally being an incel” and “you just hate woman”. Then she blocked me which 100% proved my original point. Yet I never personally insulted or labeled her once. But me disagreeing with her was an “insult” to her.

Historically one group is more likely to kill ot start wars than the other group when it comes to political or religious disagreements. Just historically speaking of course. Not saying everybody from one group or the other, just a statistic really.

The Trojan war was started was started over a woman. Queen Elizabeth and Bloody Mary were not exactly peacemakers.

Men fight and kill each other for power, land and wealth. Don’t disagree with that for a second. But there are Freudian dynamics at play that men don’t even realize that’s going on subconsciously. Men are violent because somewhere deep down it’s psychologically rooted in wanting provide and protect women. Even when it’s seemingly horribly misguided.

This Game of Thrones scene (which seems comical) actually sums this all up.

2 queens compared to how many kings and emperors?

How many presidents and prime ministers in modern society?

How many members of Congress or parliament are men vs women.

In the United States women only make up 29 percent of Congress.

9/11 wasn't based on protecting women. Neither was the invasion of Iraq.

Russia invading Ukraine is also not about protecting women either.

Most decisions in modern times when it comes to war or invading other countries have nothing to do with women at all.

We don't take the blame in that nor should we. Greed usually makes those decisions.

This is something not even the most hardcore redpill guy could even argue against.

Men are far more aggressive than women, that's always been a fact. No matter the motive.

And meanwhile every modern amenity you enjoy from your iPhone to this website wouldn’t be available if it wasn’t for men.

If women “ran the world” instead for all human history we would all be living in huts right now. Modern science and modern civilization would of never evolved.

Anyway you seem like the type who cares more about BEING right vs WHAT is right. You also believe you know what it’s really like to be a man. But you in reality you have no idea.

But all the so called equality women have nowadays was only made possible because: 1) advances in modern civilization made possible BY men. 2) sympathetic men who supported classical feminism.

Any source of independence and “power” women have is really just an illusion. Men built the world and control it. We GAVE women independence because many of us are caring and well meaning. Women want to believe they “earned it” but that’s an illusion.

Oh boy you really went off the deep end on the incel woman hating thing real quick. I was just stating facts on your question that men are far aggressive with politics. That's reality.

But here you went full on "women weak, women bad"

You really do despise women for no reason either. Have you ever considered your irrational hatred for women might be because you're in the closet. Just come out already. You'll be supported. But this weird thing about women not being equals and being beneath you is kind of incel like and pathetic. It's not gonna ever ever make you not be lonely anymore if you keep hating women. But for now we'll just live rent free in your head like we do now. Keep seething "women weak".

Reeee for me
