"I like women that look like I can intimidate and beat them easily because I'm not really a man" - Guys that say they don't like muscular women

[–] [email protected] 34 points 11 months ago (2 children)

I can see not being attracted to a muscular aesthetic (though I do I think the image here is a bit silly). I say that as a loser who'd let a jacked woman beat me to death with a waffle maker.

Yeah, it's perfectly fine if that's not your cup of tea, as long as you extend the same courtesy to everyone else

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

If you mean liking a certain look (identity or attraction), obviously.

If you mean personally, I will admit that I am not a cup of tea but luckily as a shut-in that is something that has never been relevant to a real scenario.

There’s a huge difference between going out of your way to announce that that’s not your type and just it not being your type. It’s similar to the difference between guys posting “no fat chicks” vs the ones who just turn down larger women and only say so when asked about it.

Guys that denigrate muscular women for their physique

Not being into a particular body type isn't a bad thing. Looking down on someone for it is.

Ex-friend was much like that. Really tall dude, liked tiny, subservient women. One time him and his wife were over.

"I don't allow her to wear makeup or cut her hair."

Right in front of us all. For real. (She eventually escaped!)

And yes, I hung out with such a man. Typical, young right-winger, full of rage that the world he had seen and been promised, his grandad's world, his dad's world, was taken from him by "the others".

I was slowly turning him around. And it was working! Pussed out, gave up on him. Still feel bad about it. I might have saved him but for my lack of patience and moral courage.

Don't blame yourself, it really takes a lot of energy and it's not like you're obligated to do that anyway. Besides, it could've never work 100% thus putting you in a kind of co-dependent relationship. Good for you to abandon toxic environment, I think.

Oh is that what their problem is I've always wondered what their issue was.

The thing is though both my grandfather and my father worked in coal mines. My grandfather in particular had all sorts of breathing problems and back problems because of this. I never wanted to live in their world. Those idiots have a rose tinted version of a world that never was, they have no idea what it is that they're pining after.

I'm tall and muscular and like tiny women, but I also let them bully and emotionally abuse me. I don't know what that says about me.

That you notice the flags.

Too bad red is your favourite colour.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

🤷‍♂️

It literally is.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

That you probably need a hug?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Can't see what you're replying to, you're probably right, but I am going to need that in haiku form - and don't forget the reference to the seasons.

The chill of winter

Lurks in the words of women

Cutting through muscle

[–] [email protected] 0 points 10 months ago

Yes that's very good, I would be pleased to have written it. Could also have used "lurks in a woman's silence". Now I know what the reply is to!

"My manhood rests solely on being able to beat up women"

  • some loser
[–] [email protected] 9 points 11 months ago

I just like them soft and squishy. What's wrong with that?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

I mean, I like them a touch chubby but even with that all my girlfriends could've beat my ass if they wanted to.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

"there's nothing hotter than a girl who could beat the shit out of you" -my high school wrestling coach

I see it.

Feel like I have to add a "/s" because people here are so sensitive.
