What are the biggest misconceptions of your gender?
 
What about your gender in general do you think is mid quoted by the other gender

I will go first

That all men are terrible people because a minority of men cheat and treat women really badly.

All men are sexist, all men just want sex and nothing more, the same old **** basically.

Probably the idea that women are staunch feminists simply for caring about things like equal pay, sexual harassment, progress in gender relations, etc...

Can't think of any we're all bastards.

Beso 16-10-2016 07:35 PM

That we find pouting like a a startled goose attractive.

JoshBB 16-10-2016 08:04 PM

Probably that all men are supposed to act 'masculine' and 'be a lad' or some crap like that - but I will say that the stereotype itself is perpetuated by other men, and not women.

I think that may be a slight domestic issue you have their rather than an misconception about gender

There are ignorant projections on both sides but I don't subscribe to any.

It's fun spotting them though :hee:

Strictly Jake 17-10-2016 01:50 PM

Maybe we should ask some of the women here to honestly answer if they would prefer a weak effeminate boyfriend or a strong assertive one.

What? I'm talking about who's responsible for perpetuating masculinity. I don't believe it's 100% the fault of men when women in general are attracted to strength and power. Many people try to attain what they believe would attract the opposite sex.

I'd say it's both in different ways.

That it is anything other than a social construction located in a specific cultural and historical context

Oooh! Controversial!
