Women are taught to instantly blame men when they are caught being whores because society will instantly coddle them as blameless victims. There’s a reason rape fraud is egregiously higher (~400%) IN TRIAL than every other “violent crime”. This doesn’t even begin to count the amount of fraudulent reports that are tossed aside because rape is now a buzzword for a bad date.

It helps that rape doesn't need proof beyond somebody's word to get pretty far along the system, if not all the way.

At least with fake DV they have to hit themselves a few times.

It's also code for regret sex!

Did you sleep with a guy who's absolutely in your league, but you can't reconcile your undeserved, gynocentric feelings of superiority with your withered self-esteem? It's all good, just say rape. 👍

There are women who legitimately complain online/ to friends because they are asked out when they dress up and go to bars.

I'm willing to bet that number is above 80%. Sure, there are the occasional crazy stalkers (of both sexes, but for some reason only one gets talked about a lot) but the overwhelming majority of creepy is just "ewwww, why are you talking to me you peasant?!" Just like a lot of so-called rape cases (especially in college settings) are "I met a guy, slept with him and then regretted it, so it must be rape"

Fact is that a lot of men are just awkward, especially when approaching women. It makes sense to be creeped out if a guy hits on you while being unattractive, looking at his shoes and stuttering and mumbling.

I had a drunk girl walk up to me, punch me in the chest and when I looked at her confused, she ran off crying. Women are far more spergy at “flirting” when they have to initiate.

Just like a lot of so-called rape cases (especially in college settings) are "I met a guy, slept with him and then regretted it, so it must be rape".

There was one where a girl was receiving oral sex from an incredibly hot guy, when it became socially embarrassing she went along with the feminist pressure and told the cops she was raping her.

There was a video (pg-13 and no it's not sexy) so there's doubt how absurd this claim was.

Or someone who's had their confidence shattered by a lifetime of being fed anti-male propaganda along with arbitrary, contradictory "rules" about how they're supposed to interact with women.

I've repeatedly explained to you in explicit detail why I (and I assume many others as well, judging by the downvotes you attract) get sick of your antics. You just ignore it.

And in this case I'll go again, I agree that there's a shit ton of negativity thrown at boys and men. I lived it in the 80s and it's only gotten worse since then.

Where you go off the deep end is "and all women are hateful people and involved in a conspiracy to destroy all men and boys." That's where you earn the downvotes.

Your problem is literally the exact same problem as the feminists. You see a Matriarchy Monolith just like they see a Patriarchy Conspiracy. You focus on our warped culture overall and ignore the trees for the forest.

Every time you rant about how all women are the devil, I think of my sister who streams video games with me every Monday and trusts me to babysit my nephew for her. I think of my mom who pulls me out of depressive episodes and has long talks with me. I think of my cousin-in-law, who appreciates my company even after I sperged out and insulted her tastes.

I think of all the wonderful women in my life, and everything you say starts to ring hollow, even with the bits of truth you've latched onto rattling around inside.

It's a way to show social status. They don't really complain, they broadcast "many men find me attractive". But they can't be open with that, thus they "complain".

If you were awkward or bad at it, that means you weren't a natural. Which betrays that you weren't the top 20% (or lower) excellent genes that women want to breed with on that instinctual level. They want those lower 80% to not even be allowed to approach them, let alone speak. God forbid they ask them out, because then it means they think the girl is so low on the scale that they had a chance.

Its always been this way, they are just ramping up the consequences more and more by the year. We are already partway to being an incel being actually illegal somehow, with the definition of it far beyond actual involuntary celibacy and well into just being "not attractive." Which is what all of this is building towards.

Where does this meme come from? I've known plenty of men who are not smooth, and yet have top-tier genetics, at least when it comes to intelligence (and earning potential).

Probably statistics published from dating sites. I think it was OkCupid that said women rate >80% of men as below average attractiveness ergo only chads in top <20% of attractiveness are matching with these women. These 20% of men thus have the pick of the crop and often treat women disposably since they have easy access to pussy. Women then think all men are trash from their experience of dating the same 20% of men who don't need or value a 5 or 6 out of 10.

Maybe 80% of men on OkCupid are below the average of men? Wouldn't surprise me.

attractiveness ergo only chads in top <20% of attractiveness are matching with these women

People disagree about who the "top 20%" are. Unless a guy is really good-looking or really terrible-looking, that is going to be applicable. And "top 20%" is not exactly "Chad". If you go walk the streets, are 1 out of 5 men you see "Chads"?

Women then think all men are trash from their experience of dating the same 20% of men who don't need or value a 5 or 6 out of 10.

I don't think anyone wants a 5 out of a 10.

To this point I've assumed that when people refer to "top 20 percent" they're being facetious-- not referring to any real measure of quality, just referring to what women see as the top 20 percent. Which is basically just the dudes who are hot and charismatic and have money.

If people actually believe there's some kind of linear natural scale of men, with hot and smart at the top, and ugly and stupid at the bottom, then that's retarded. Genetics arent that clean-cut or easy to understand.

As the other guy said, the Pareto Distribution. In this case I picked it because its a well known number for the discussion overall, but I think its actually quite a bit lower. Simply because of how few guys are really that much of a "natural" at such a things from birth, the majority of whom are likely quite mentally ill or dangerous resulting in such confidence instead of some perfect genes.

For me metoo started a looot earlier, I was an awkward teen once, not to get into too much detail as it might dox me but: I never got any legal issues with it but reputation was destroyed amongst my peers, my confidence obviously was in shambles. That's years and years back, the people involved probably do not even think about it anymore, I sure did a until a while ago even many years later. Metoo probably made it way, way worse now.
