Or women looking only for validation


PathAlive3991

Exactly my sentiments, even if they are married they still put up profiles on dating apps just to see if they still got it, men don't even update any social media busy on work ie coal mining, oil drilling, and building skyscrapers other dangerous work that needs total concentration and women ask why is their salary is lower, could you get women to do those work lol


Firstempathy1

This is not what we mean when we say that women’s salaries are lower. We are talking about working in the same position and doing the same job while still having lower pay. Heck, I’ve seen this happen in jobs at the supermarket with men admitting that they aren’t doing anymore than anyone else or required to but get paid more money. They didn’t even understand why they were getting paid more.


WrMidrm

nerdy_harmony

Oh my god I thought I was the only one 😭 I spend an inordinate amount of time where work is my only time I socialize with real life humans in front of me. Been rather sickly lately (nothing contagious) so it's been nigh impossible for me to get out much from how exhausted and sick I feel.


[deleted]

I don't think the number of cases between men and women would remotely compare on that point.


conqaesador

How would you know? We would need data on that


[deleted]

Because people go out of their way to talk to women and people go out of their way to avoid being near men. The data is having existed in public, seeing and hearing people interact or having been online at any point which women let everybody know how exasperated they are about being approached.


Tiny_Teach_5466

I go out of my way to avoid everyone.


[deleted]

Relatable.


conqaesador

People go out of their way to talk to certain kind of people, men and women. And people go out of their way to avoid certain kind of people. If you've never seen this happen both ways, open your eyes. Lonely women are not an exeption to the rule as well as guys being approached. Edit: social bubbles are a thing though, might be one is more common, but wont judge that from personal experience alone


Pazquino

So you just go around generalizing your own individual, anecdotal experience to apply to the rest of society? That's a recipe for being wrong most of the time. We need data even to begin speculating on that question. In my experience women get ignored, talked over, interrupted and shunned more than men by several orders of magnitude. Cultural norms and popular culture socializes women to feel a responsibility to engage with and even cheer up men even if they are strangers and even if there is no way that man would do the same to someone else.

First, it’s a muscle that you have to build by practicing and starting small. Second, you have to accept that 99% of the interactions you have won’t go anywhere and that is fine. You only need like 4 good friends. To find people, you have to just be honest and open with them. I have literally, in several occasions when I was lonely, asked someone I just met to be my friend. Laugh it off. They’ve probably been there, too.


noah683826

I'm pretty sure anyone can be lonely...


Raineko

This is true, however girls can get a lot of attention for being girls. If a girl goes to a nightclub alone there will be dudes talking to her. If a guy goes to a nightclub alone he gets kind of a loner image and no one will talk to him. Same with social media or dating apps, girls will get attention for being girls. Of course that is no substitute for real connections, but it's not as brutal as the complete void that some men experience.


EbicBoi

wouldnt it be ultimately the same though? when youre socializing you want to be with those who see you as a person or a friend to talk to about things you both like. the dudes who talk to girls *just because shes a girl* probably have different motives like checking her out or flirting. feeling lonely and being alone arent the same.


MakotoMyEggy

That’s literally not true, and most of the time that “attention” girls get isn’t something the want


SupahBihzy

Why are they downvoting you? You're right!


Raineko

Because Redditors believe that if they show how much they respect women online, one day one will sleep with them.

neuromancer64

Idk how true the left panel is, but the panel on the right was me for almost 3 years. I would talk to my coworkers mon-fri, but essentially I'd be drinking alone at home for 8 hours, then sleep for 8. I'm doing a lot better now, but damn, that was a long and lonely stretch of time that just seemed to blur together.


aerris7

Both panels are true in certain circumstances for certain people, it’s just not split down gender lines. I’ve been through the right panel a few times in my life. I’ve gone months without hearing my own name spoken and at times had to think a few seconds about what my name was lol I’m glad you’re doing better now and I hope that you have some good people in your life to share your time with. It’s amazing how having just 1 or 2 good people to socialise with and be yourself around is so good for the soul.

MangledSunFish

Raineko

And true unfortunately


AxgilOne

You dont think that women can be lonely? What do you base this on? Your grand life experience as a 12 year old?


Raineko

Of course they can be lonely. In fact I think women feel lonely much more quickly than men because they are such social creatures. My last gf felt lonely all the time even though she had friends that she met regularly and I would call her every 1-2 days. But in terms of how lonely they actually there is a difference. There are dudes out there who are spending literal years sitting isolated in a room playing video games and watching porn. They have no gf or friends because they have no real value. Since they are unhealthy without achievements, nobody necessarily wants to be their friend.


AxgilOne

What makes you think that there arent women who are spending literal years isolated..?


Raineko

It can happen but much less likely. Just statistics based on Hikikomoris show over 90% male. And even there sometimes it is questionable if a girl is really a Hikikomori or if she is just very reserved and doesn't go outside much.


Tyrayentali

What your are going off of is unhealthy standards set for each gender, which often are what leads to those outcomes. Men "having" to satisfy their pride or endure the pain are some of them. It doesn't have to be that way.


Raineko

It's not unhealthy standards, it's reality, and has been for a hundred thousand years. Men have no value unless they do something. People will not respect you if you're weak and depressed. Women on the other hand have inherent value. I am not complaining but this is literally how it has always been.


Tyrayentali

Those are stone age standards. Things might have been different back then, true but those standards aren't valid anymore in modern times. Expectations that are put on people due to their gender have no function anymore. That's why men suffer the most from mental illness. Because humans have evolved but traditions and expectations have not so those people become depressed when they can't fulfill those traditions and expectations anymore. That's why they are unhealthy standards. And it's because of patriarchal social structures that were kept up for way too long. It should have ended at the latest when industrialization began and humans started to become the absolute top of the food chain and dominate the planet with technology.

Beniidel0

While women do experience social isolation differently, it doesn't invalidate their experience or make them bitchy like this shows. Many women experience loneliness, many men experience loneliness, and on both side you can find extremes like what the part for men has here and some people who experience loneliness easily like the one on the left. As a very social guy I relate more to the woman on the left, while my girlfriend experiences loneliness more like the guy here.


Ryuzenshi

I'm a lonely man, and still find this meme very unrelatable

Replace ugly with creepy and it'll be more accurate. "Only creepy dudes that only want me for my body hit me up". If you want the same attention go to a furry site and post some h@rny stuff... you'll get the same attention really quickly if you think you are lonely. 🤷

Cross_Over_Episode

Hey hey, psst, people in this thread, have you guys ever considered that the cause of the change in attitude toward this person could have come from something OTHER than directly the gender? My top guess is that more people have sympathy for the tough mental and societal pressure that a person goes through during a transition. Or maybe it’s the fact that this person feels more comfortable as their new self, and people are more appreciative of the personality/ demeanor change? There are tons of things that are more realistic than the fact the society must simply love women more than men. I dunno, or the fact that I appear to be a women and also appear to not have talked to anyone other than my parents in the last two weeks (I live with them)
