No. As long as you're looking to learn and not expecting women to handhold and coddle you, you're fine.

>>10491944

you remind me of those fake feminist males who pretend to be ‘Mr. nice guy’ to get closer to girls. “But I’m not like all the other guys!”

>>10491949
Nonononono, honestly I have a lot of serious insecurities due to reading these threads and seeing how men treat their significant others. I want to have a successful relationship in the future, and moreso want to learn to STOP being an incel scrote, but I don't really have much of a way of doing that outside of doing so covertly.
I try to read these things because I KNOW I'm like other guys, and I don't want to be that way, y'know?

>>10491950
If it's wrong and there's not much I can do in the way of improving myself, I'll happily resign myself to my fate of being a wizard. But until then I at least wanna try, I'm relatively young and still uninformed in a lot of social nuances between men and women due to being caught in a sausagefest at my college. I just want to overcome my hormonal stupidity but it doesn't feel like it's really that easy to just "treat them like people" when every single hormone in your body is saying "MAN WANT PARTNER. WOMAN SIGHTED. ENGAGE WITH WOMAN TO FIND PARTNER."

>>10491951
See a therapist

>>10491907
asherah's garden is already a thing, there's even /mh/ for man hate. it's slow and not focused on gossip but scrotes are banned, haven't seen it mentioned yet

>>10491951
>it doesn't feel like it's really that easy to just "treat them like people" when every single hormone in your body is saying "MAN WANT PARTNER. WOMAN SIGHTED. ENGAGE WITH WOMAN TO FIND PARTNER."
oh my god just a-log yourself off of this planet already.

try yoga

>>10491937
I suggest you go read r/FemaleDatingStrategy if you’re serious.

>>10491951
this is a good thing, if you're genuine.

Does anyone have that tied up Leon Kennedy cosplay

I keep a list updated with all things I have coming in the mail with *pictures* and looking at it makes me feel all giddy

>>10491956
my boy is already trying too hard already. If he wants to learn about relationships he should read up /r/relationships_advice. /r/askmen or /r/askwomen for gender related questions. and ffs stop doing w.e tf he’s doing it’s not cute and cringey af. It’s like he think he’s in an anime or some shit. like bruh just stop thinking about getting a gf so much and find a hobby you like doing and talk to girls about that hobby.

and what made you think /cgl/ or lolcow was a good place to understand girls more. /cgl/ is just girls tearing other girls down for being fat or dressing like shit. as for lolcow that place is a cesspool.

>>10491960
I do that too but some items I’d be like why tf did I buy that shit. especially for the ones that take forever to arrive.

>>10491960
Ooooo me too anon!
It also helps me keep track of how much I spend and on what. I also make collages of what I have in my closet so I don’t end up buying something I don’t need


>>10491963
Yeah he might be better off talking to normies. Unless he wants a weeb gf

>All male spaces ive saw would love to have more women around.
This is such bullshit. I've been in this hellhole since 2008 and I can count on my hands the amount of times I announced my sex (outside of maybe /adv/ and /cgl/ where it's usually implied). Most of these times whatever I said was completely ignored and all I was met with were insults, ridiculing, thirstposting etc.
Men simply can't behave and have a meaningful discussion when they know women are on the other side of the screen. Rational sex my ass.

>>10491965
Oh, that's a really good idea! I'm going to make a list like that now, too.

>>10491964
On the contrary I think it helps me to have the visual, to know what I should and shouldn't get. If I see something cute, but I check & I don't have some things coming that might match, it lets me know it's going to be a money sink just to coord that one item. And having a second list like >>10491965 mentioned will help even more!

>>10491862
Sorry the post office is being destroyed.

>>10491879
Her personality, demeanor, and wit. I've always been proud of my intellect but she trumps me there as well. She challenged me. And I miss that.

Thanks for letting me voice it out, buddy.

>>10491759
>No men allowed is a stupid rule
holy fucking faggot

>>10491908
this

>>10491937
It's probably not bad as long as you keep in mind they don't represent all women, and that people will say they want something when they don't know what they want.
I actually feel like as horrifying as it was, reading redpill stuff improved me as a female because it showed me a few things to avoid. But I don't take it too seriously and my bf's wants align little with what that crowd wants or says they want.

>>10491937

Why would you read what a bunch of (internalized) misogynists have to say?

>>10491928
>i'm gonna keep it real w yall, men aren't like. literal beasts you need to be protected from. i don't really get the "all female safe haven board" thing, like it's really not that deep.
You're right, a good chunk of men are just normal guys that would leave women alone. The problem is online it's another story because it's the percentage of the loud, misogynistic trolls and self righteous troons and grooms that are the ones that cause problems making a a bad name for all men just like SJWs and Karens make a bad name fow all women. You're right it's not that deep, and yet it's difficult as fuck to achieve. If a bunch of girls want a no boys allowed club house, let them. If boys want a no girls allowed house, let them.
>>10491950
It should be simple just don't view women as potential wives/girlfriends/fap material. I feel that's the biggest problem as it feels like it all comes from a sexual desire and how men process it. They
1. Bend over backwards to try and get a chance at the puss
2. Pretend to friends just so they can get puss
3. Hate and resent for lack of puss

I actually have a tad more respect for some of the /fit/fags mindsets of "disregard women. Lift for yourself." because even though they can be mysoginstic assholes, they are at least trying to focus on bettering themselves FOR themselves and women are an afterthought. I'm mildly proud of them. Too bad all the high test and roids make them want to tear someone's head off.

>uwu pls donate to my gofundme to get me out of my abusive household in which my cis male father yells at me for not doing the dishes umu Dx

>>10491926
yeah depop and grailed is nice if you don’t want to pay full price for brand items but irl thrift is better at finding deals. If you don’t mind fast fashion h&m sales are nice too.

The dream of a /lit/ where I can discuss fanfiction made a shiver run down my spine...

>>10491891
>All male spaces ive saw would love to have more women around.
This is not true

not sure how to introduce my parents to lolita. i already dress weird as hell and have had a matching idgaf attitude since i was born, but this fashion is so out of the norm idk how they'd react. it's not like i need their approval, they already hate the way i dress myself now and i'm like whatever but idk it'd still kind of suck and hurt if they reacted super negatively. i think what i'm scared of is the initial reaction. i don't care if they tell me i look dumb once they see me the second or fifth time, but i'm scared of that first response. for now, i'm just gonna keep hiding all my stuff in the corner of my room. hopefully i get the courage to just rip off the bandaid soon.

>>10492281
Men aren't monolith. Some want women in their spaces and some don't.

I miss when cgl was more snarky

>>10492296
depends on which lolita style you're wearing desu

>>10492301
My noongar, I have been playing contact sports my whole life and worked some construction. Women would have been a hindrance on the field/mat and the site. They probably didn't want to be there with us anyway.

>>10492317
this is why you're still a virgin

>>10492324
I did ur mom last night

anyone else fucking sick to death of menhera? It's always the same types wearing it and selling it. No, I don't want to wear pills and crying anime girls on my coord. I don't want to be "cutesy depressed" for lack of a better term. And 99% of the time, the indie stores that sell these things also sell "kink" themed stuff like cutesy shibari, pastel vibrator earrings, and other stupid, ugly perverted bullshit. I hate westerners in this fashion and indie shit at this point. I'm American but I'm fucking sick of this.

>>10492317
I refer you back to my previous post

>>10492317
Did you not realize female construction workers exist and they're not just their to feel special? They actually do their job? Jesus men are retarded.

>>10492317
Are you so bad at reading context cues you didn't realize that we were probably not talking about spaces where physical strength is an important factor?

>>10492348
Sorry for your loss
>>10492351
Men love sports, but they sure fuck don't want women in the way. I bring it up, because it is the most obvious example of men not necessarily wanting to have more women in a male space. Are you bad at reading context clues?

>>10492370
No shit, women don't want men in their sports either for good reason. That was obviously not what anyone was referring to dumbfuck.

Decided to start applying for another job after mine continuously tried to fuck me into an availability I don’t have. I was hoping to ride it out until after COVID settled, but today my GM try to guilt trip me into working off the clock. I am done. “It would look better on you if..” nah dude. I’m on emergency furlough because of COVID, and granted while I am still on the payroll, I didn’t agree with any of my managers that I was returning. And the person who’s trying to schedule me (without actually putting me on any schedule), isn’t even in the same department as me. So fuck this shit, I’m done. I can’t work for a business as unprofessional as this.
The downside is can’t buy any lolita for a long while...plus side I might actually work with people who aren’t fucking lunatics who marry the job and expect everyone else to do the same.

>>10491664
nah think it’ll be more weebs just whining they can’t dress up as nazis instead of actually doing it because they’re too scared. anyone with their toe in the cosplay community has heard of the sieg heil in front of the holocaust memorial and everyone is more concerned with looking #woke in 2020 to pull a stunt like that again

>>10492428
God, I really hate those types of workplaces. Sending you strength in your last bit of time there and hope you can find a better job soon.

>>10491907
No /tg/
Dropped.

One thousand percent correct.

>>10491907
The problem with every idea like this is that trannies are extremely online due to not being welcome anywhere in reality, and they thirst to invade women's spaces. They have a terrible advantage in time and autism so they're practically impossible to avoid.

>>10492778
i've said it before, but yall really need to interact with trans people irl. could you imagine if someone based their ideas on lesbians around 2015 tumblr steven universe fans. that's how yall look
