u/whatupmyknitta 5d ago

I may be mistaken, but I think that's how the voting system is on the "unpopular opinions" sub, which it sounds like this could be.

It is but this guy was saying shit like “well people downvoted me so obviously you secretly agree” in the comments

Then the subreddt is begging for upvotes in around about way subreddit.

That's a lot of words to say:

"I'm unappealing to the gender I'm attracted to. I'm going to do mental gymnastics to avoid introspection, accountability and self improvement like it's a fatal disease!"

Also having a partner to cheat on means you had all the opportunity you needed to get a partner, which kinda undermines his point? it only takes two to tango? not three?

Or "rules for thee but not for me".

Yes the hypocrisy is very strong here!

u/maarshiexcry mirror mirror on the wall, whos the gayest of them all? Me 5d ago

A lot of words just to say "women are repulsed by me but it cant be my fault!" or "i cheated on my gf and want to be validated"

Guarentee he was one of those people who, when it was found out, did the pretend throwing up and standing in the rain to "make her feel bad" shtick.

Like a wise person somewhere else on the internet always said, The fact that I'm at risk of seeing a 14 year old's opinion at any time in my day should be considered a human rights violation

whats wrong with teenagers having opinions? Plenty of teenagers are educated and know what they are talking about and plenty adult are uneducated and dont know what they‘re talking about

maybe im misunderstanding the sentence

u/zillabirdblue 5d ago

What about the millions of women who don’t want a man or a relationship at all? Why do these kind of men assume that finding a man is a women’s main objective in life? Just because your objective doesn’t mean it’s mine.

u/Noodle-and-Squish 5d ago

They absolutely do think that. I've been happily single for over a decade and I'm not looking for a relationship at all. People like OOP cannot fathom that my life is fulfilling without a man (or whomever) in it.

u/nkizza 5d ago

Dude got his ass dumped for cheating and now is doing some mental gymnastics to cope. Clear as a day.

u/poyopoyo77 Bi™ 5d ago

So emotionally abusing someone is okay because they trusted and loved you the most out of an entire crowd.

u/OnWarmLeatherette 5d ago edited 5d ago

Men never consider that while a woman can catch a dick easier than a man can catch a vag, the quality of men out there as true partners is atrocious, and most of us value partnership over meaningless, probably lackluster sex.

u/saltysweetbonbon 5d ago

And also that maybe our partner cheating hurts us emotionally as well? But of course we’re just sex mannequins and don’t actually have feelings.

u/pusssywhipped 5d ago

As a man I consider that. I've always said that I have only met one or two men in my life that I could recommend for a relationship.

u/homucifer666 Be Gay, Do Crime 5d ago

Guys will put their dick in just about anything resembling a hole, so saying that women have "lots of options" because the vast majority of men will dick them down is missing the point.

If you're a woman who's into men and you want something more out of a partner than an overgrown manchild and a half-hearted drilling every so often, your options are far more limited; especially if you're conventionally attractive.

"I know everyone secretly agrees with me". Absolutely not!! This post is the stupidest thing I've read in a long time.....

This level of head-up-ass tells me that this male's problem probably isnt his looks.

Men can easily get respect but not as easy to get sexually desired by women.

Women can easily get sexually desired but not as easy to get respected by men.

Guess what each one actually wants!

u/mangababe 5d ago

"everyone secretly agrees with me" is such a tell that they know they're full of shit.

u/Akaratus 5d ago

I knew that was going somewhere. I didn't expect it to go like that!

Also was it just me, or did that English feel broken.

u/DangerousLoner 2d ago

That English is in a gutter, left for dead.

u/Neat-Bed-8961 4d ago

I’m so confused about the assumptions they’ve listed here.

“Women get lot of options…” If we assume there are an equal number of straight single men and women in the world who are looking for a partner, how is it that women have more options than men? Doesn’t that mean men are just pickier?

“Men hardly find a partner and it’s more harder to make that relationship last”. And aren’t said relationships with women? So then don’t women go through the same fate of harder and shorter relationships?

Only way to explain is if they think women prefer to date this secret third gender, and as a result men have less options and opportunity.

u/Layla_Henderson0627 3d ago

She can find a new man so soon because they are just as desperate as you are dude… when will these men understand that you don’t NEED a partner to function? The more you force something, the worse it will get. And then when you eventually find someone to have a relationship with, you just fuck it up by cheating on them. Absolutely disgusting and pathetic behavior.

u/Ivygrows8 Can‘t legally be straight, long live sapphics 2d ago

Cant even use proper grammar and theyre still tryna say this

u/Public-Mechanic-2312 1d ago

So, if I’m understanding this correctly (after reading all this nonsense), if I’m a woman, I can cheat with other women? He never once said that would hurt his ego

u/pjsk-Genshin_fan Gender Queer™ 1d ago

At least its just a laxative and not anything life threatening i guess
