Language Men Use To Describe Women’s Feelings

I’ve been on a dating hiatus & very much in my celibate – radical feminist – questioning my sexuality – era. However, I recently met 2 guys who I was interested in, so I began the talking phase.

Without fail, both of them used words that trivialized women’s feelings. Guy #1 described his ex as someone who threw “tantrums” over “silly” things. Apparently she wasn’t “simple” enough🤔 Guy #2 had an ex who had “weird” moods. Of course he claims not to know why. These red flags came in pairs because they both seemed insecure and sexist.

Although I’m no stranger to the mechanics of male socialization, it was still disappointing to (yet again) realize that men reduce women’s feelings so they don’t need to acknowledge them. It’s either happy or sad. Giving me sex or not. Stroking my ego which is good. Versus not stroking it, which is bad. Pleased with everything I do or hates everything I do.
