 90% of women be like, I wish dudes would treat me more like a dude. This sucks.

The remaining 10% be like, I wish dudes would treat me less like a dude.  This sucks.

10%er checking in for duty. 😜 
 Bros be like, yo, Stella, help me move this couch. 
 Do you like my new dress? 🥺

Are you gonna stand there, yapping your trap all day, or are you gonna pick up the other end? After that, I need you to fix my computer and change the oil in my car.

THAT SNOW DON'T SHOVEL ITSELF, GIRL! 
 Chivalry isn't dead, just out of fashion. Fashion sucks.  
 I personally love it when a man opens the door for me or allows me to walk in first ect 
 I knoooooooowww. 🤩 
 That's how Hubby got me. Opened the door and helped me with my coat, and I'm like,

 Love it 💜💜💜 
 People are always like... That's it? 👀
He was the first one to ever have that idea! 😂 I was like, 

Dear Diary, today someone helped me with my coat and paid for my drink and said I had a pretty blouse on, so I asked him to father my children... 
 And, for the record, no one has ever done that, since. Literally the #OnlyManEver. 
 what a world we live in 
 Also the only man who has seen me resting and asked me if I want something to drink.

I'm just setting here, chilling, right now, and he's like, 
Would you like some 🍷?

Yes, please. Thank you. 
 Perfect 😍 
 Rare find. Snapped him right up. 🤙🏼 
 Men have no idea how low the bar can be. 😂

They're all trying the "act like an aloof, cheating arse to get da chicks" angle, so one guy can stop you in your tracks by bringing you some tea or opening the door, or remembering your birthday. 
 The best were the guys who would open with put-downs. Never got a compliment, just one put-down, after another, cuz they think they're Mr. Super Sly and they're the first one to try that Game, even though they're all reading the same writers.

You look like Halle. If she were short and chubby and not as hot...

You'd be better as a blonde. Not hot, but a bit better.

Your contacts are very convincing.

Dude, that's the third time I've heard that this week. 🙄 
 the way people's minds have been messed up is incredible

but my experiences with women have mostly been about them hovering around me and then i notice them and think "hmm she likes me, she's ok" and then usually the play fighting starts 
 They do that on here, too. First time they communicate with me is usually something nasty or mean, or some accusation. 
 too little context for any meaningful analysis 
 Don't need context. Can watch it in real time. 
 Makes me wonder how people got to thinking that the bar is high in the first place. Also, the "aloof prick" strategy doesn't attract the best women 
 women always give the signal, usually, simply paying attention to you, and making excuses to be around you

oh, all sorts of excuses, you'll hear every kind if you have ever had a lady warm up to you

there's no craft or trick to it, they sniff you out and they are magnetised

it's almost never about symbols or signals, it's usually unconscious and pheromones

drugs of all kinds mess it up though, be it alcohol making them more overconfident or hormones making them unable to smell properly, or even them having practise and knowing to stay aloof because they had drugs 
 It's cuz they're all hitting on the same small subset of women, and those women are justifiably annoyed by it. 
 I have female friends and relatives in that category and you can just watch men line up to get knocked down, trying more and more complex psychological tricks and frantically strategizing.

 Can confirm. 
Be a gentleman. 
Therein lives nobility, chivalry, romance, respect, and love. 
 🫂 
 womans make the species, ffs they deserve dignity at least 
 Teaching my teen son to always be a gentleman towards all females and to always be respectful and helpful to older people. 
 Same. 
 As a dude myself, I wish women didn't want to be treated like a dude, either.   
 Dude, where’s my car? 
 The real problem is women saying they want to be treated like dudes when they actually want to be treated like women lol it confuses the young guys. 
 They do want to be treated like dudes, tho, they just can't deal with it when it happens because being treated like a dude actually totally sucks. 😂

They want to be treated like The Boss Man, but most dudes aren't the Boss Man. 
 It’s because Male hierarchy can’t be bought bullied or reasoned with. Either you’re the man or you’re not. You can’t gaslight anyone into believing you are higher than you actually are. 

Female hierarchy is much flatter. It’s like a scrum for power. 
 Also when men are the “boss man” it’s a burden, whereas women seem to see it as a privilege. It’s not. lol 
 Women see it as a privilege, if they are clueless and incompetent. Every woman who has been the Boss Lady knows what a total grind it is. 
 Just trying to recruit and motivate staff has become a challenge. You're not sitting up on some throne, bossing your ninions around. 
 That’s how the actual boss man tricked the women into thinking this was the way, only to get her to play into the burden and taxes that come with it. 
 Yeah. 

If she's professionally competing with men, she probably doesn't want to come home and compete with her mate or her male friends and relatives.

She wants to relax. She never gets to relax. 
 This is true, I can totally relate.

 Few.
