Can I be mean for a sec? (im so sorry) losing weight made me lose allllllllll sympathy for men who complain about “women go after the top 10%!” I went from being treated subhuman by them to finally being treated like a normal person after I lost 50lbs

I get fetishized no matter my size it’s why I’m mean when someone hits on me rather than approaches me with a friendly energy to get to know me first. I’m not afraid to make a grown man cry if he wants to approach me like I’m a toy. 🤷‍♀️

I apologize this showed up in my recommended posts and it’s my first time interacting with this community, but I experienced the same thing as a man, also losing 50 pounds. I will say it wasn’t subhuman tho, just like never interested & a small sub-category of both women and men treated me subhuman

Especially when you recall that these are like the same people who are always so adamant that you believe woman about their experiences and how their experiences and perceptions of them are valid and how a man could never possibly know a woman’s experience and shouldn’t even speak on it.

My experience is in dating a ton of people who wouldn’t be considered the top anything, but I dated them because they’re good people and reasonably attractive. That’s arguably more experience than men trying to get a date while being a terrible person, then blaming it on not being in the top whatever percent.

This is a woman only space. It’s in the rules you agreed to when you joined the space. And “believe all women” isn’t a substitute for proper investigation and rule of law, it’s just a good rule of thumb, because even now, women still get blamed even when they’re clearly the victim. I recommend watching a video the UK put out, where it shows how victims of rape are treated more like the perpetrator than as a victim.

Provide those statistics. It should be easy if “every statistical analysis ever done” proves your point. And I’m not talking about dating apps because the number of men who use those far outnumbers the women, so the situation is incredibly different, and the people that are on those apps are not an accurate representation of the majority. I’m talking about statistics on the general population.

It’s getting downvoted because the data actually shows the exact opposite, with women choosing to remain childless, and men able to donate sperm if they’re single but want a genetic legacy.

Lineage studies show that historically women pass their genes at twice the rate that men do. That’s a simple fact. Also, my comment that’s being downvoted had nothing to do with passing genes, just stating the also empirically demonstrated fact that women have more dating options than men.

Not all men can donate sperm and don’t women need to want a kid to use the sperm? You can look it up, most women are able to reproduce if they want, most men can’t…it’s just how it is…the dating market is far more harsh for men on average, but there is a big chunk of women who have it hard too of course, but it’s not as large.

You pick one. You can look at virginity rates. % of each sex saying they’ve gone x amount of time without a date or sex. Look at lineage data and see that double the amount of women pass their genes than men do. It’s all out there and easily accessible for you.

Because dating apps aren’t actually representative of the real world, and the data from those apps is what’s been misinterpreted and twisted by people with bad intentions to make big claims about humanity as a whole (like the percentage one) that simply aren’t accurate. In real life, plenty of women are passed over, and plenty of men are in relationships. It’s closer to equal, but a large majority of people just don’t use dating apps

Biologically sex is almost entirely immutable. It is not binary. However, the vast majority of cases do fit neatly into M and F, from purely a biological standpoint. Trans women are women in gender and men in sex. That’s the case for almost all of them.

Heterosexual men and women by and large do not know the person is trans until they tell them (per my trans friends, who have to worry about when to tell folks w dating — before they meet?

Regardless, #4s point stands. Some trans women have experience dating “as men” in their adult lives before coming out / transitioning. It doesn’t matter if you think they have the same experience as cis women post transition.

I read the post wrong at first as if OP was saying that she had no sympathy for women who complained about men only going after the top percentage because she lost weight and men pursued her. Like my brain just fully switched “men” and “women” and the whole post read like she was saying “women just need to lose weight to be pursued” so I’m assuming #9 may have done something similar tbh.

No? The entire gender vs sex argument is almost entirely semantics. You guys are arguing about the definition of a word.... Sex has both mutable and immutable traits, and can generally be assigned into a binary system that works out for the majority of people. Whilst Sex is on a spectrum, MOST people can be assigned to one that corresponds to their "reproductive role" for lack of a better term. I think both me and #14 respect gender, and that trans women ARE women
