Because that would make increase make men like you even more insecure and mentally unstable

>> No.9928465

Two factors:

a) They are just more vocal about their feelings, this might make it seems like they feel more fear but they just externalize it more

b) They lack the same inquisitive nature that makes men curious about bugs which ends up eliminating a lot of the fear, women just avoid them and thus remain afraid

All of which are biological factors.

Entomophobia is not a biological factor. It's a cultural thing, as there's plenty of cultures where women not only do not fear insects, but will eat them.

And, in this society, I guarantee you, the more stereotypical "feminine" a woman pretends to be, the more she will fear bugs. Tom boys will smash bugs with their bare hands, regardless of estrogen levels, while Stacy will scream for her boyfriend to come and smash it.

It's entirely social conditioning, and really, it's part of the sympathy power play that most women have been trained to use. A lot of stereotypical western female behaviors don't appear in other cultures, as they aren't natural. And, in the end, the more stereotypical female behaviors a woman displays, the less genuine she tends to be. We all wear the masks society offers us to one degree or another, but some of us take to the role to such a degree where we lose all touch with ourselves. That includes both those who wear the mask of the SJW, and those who wear the mask of the Incel.

Real answer: Because they are afraid they will crawl into their vaginas.

This is why they flip out when a bug is in their bedroom. It’s about a fear of being “impregnated” (not actually impregnated, but have their vagina/womb tainted). This is also why the Alien movie is so scary, because it impregnated the women.

Nibba, did you even watch that movie?

In the original "Alien" only men get impregnated, and the "last girl" heroically kills the giant roach.
