RULES:


I am looking for mods!


1. The "good" part of our community means we are pro-empathy and anti-harassment. However, we don't intend to make this a "safe space" where everyone has to be a saint. Sh*t happens, and life is messy. That's why we get things off our chests.

2. Bigotry is not allowed. That includes racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, and religiophobia. (If you want to vent about religion, that's fine; but religion is not inherently evil.)

3. Frustrated, venting, or angry posts are still welcome.

4. Posts and comments that bait, threaten, or incite harassment are not allowed.

5. If anyone offers mental, medical, or professional advice here, please remember to take it with a grain of salt. Seek out real professionals if needed.

6. Please put NSFW behind NSFW tags.

i have some good men in my life, but it still doesn't help. my reasons for hating are probably a little strange, and I can't even discuss it with anyone without being told to go to hell, and I have to deal with it on my own.

Had this conversation with a coworker once. She just wanted to be friends with men at this point in her life and She was frustrated that every guy that wants to be her friend is just trying to bang her. For her, all the decent males were the only ones were not trying to get in her knickers but they were also indifferent to her fueling her negative state of mind.

Easier said than done as anger provides false clarity but try to keep what's upsetting you grounded in truth and find ppl who will try to do the same.
