> Unconscious behavior like this made me lose much of the respect I had for women. I agree. What really gets me is that you're told to open up and talk about your emotions. They paint to bottle up as a negative trait, but women usually lose all respect for men – friends and partners – who share their own fears and worries. One time is enough to ruin your image and dismiss the good times. Empathy is replaced by disgust, since they don't want to be seen around with a weakling. I still believe everyone is worthy of respect and dignity. But I'm not going to put my trust on women. Sensitive men are creepy.

ah yes, ever show a weakness, pain or suffering, and you're a goner in their eyes, pitiful worthless bag of meat. no more of that alpha which bleeds with a smile on his face and takes every hit in his life without stumbling. I mean, if you expect perfection, provide perfection, nothing less. my theory is that they feel weak (this goes beyond obvious physical weakness compared to men), hence the strong urge to have alphas 'guarding' and providing for them.

Wow, you are hateful people. I've been a woman walking around with unshaven legs -- men recoil with disgust, tell me I am a "hairy beast", etc. It's been this way since middle school. Men are not the only ones to put up with disgust from the opposite sex. Dealing with this universal human experience should not make you "lose respect" for 50% of the population because we are not a homogenous lump, we are individuals and we are all different.

  I'm sorry you had to endure such insults. My post wasn't written out of hatred and I apologize if it came off that way. Sometimes I let past issues get the best of me. But I really appreciate the way you describe it – "Dealing with this universal human experience". I hope my manners didn't turn you off HN. It's a great community to be part of. You learn something new every day from developers of all walks of life! Please stick around, it's worth it.
