[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I'm not sure why you are so triggered by my comment. [/quote] When you write, "You are so triggered," you try to discount my words by using the term "triggered" in a clinical sense, such as when TV shows have trigger warnings to let viewers know that the show contains sensitive content. Men have accused women of doing this forever (e.g., my joke about blonds triggered her, and she went off the rails.) Do better. [quote]I don't like putting women in boxes, like OPs mom did. I dont like a knee jerk reaction that if a woman says something negative that it stems from jealousy. [/quote] I do not like putting [b]people[/b] into boxes. Try to be more inclusive. [quote]Wimp/nerd/geek are definitely not exclusively used for men. I've even been called a nerd/geek because I liked reading growing up [/quote] Really? Have you ever been in a physical fight because someone called you a nerd? Plenty of men have because the term is used to emasculate. Sadly, you are using a trite example to mask the use of a hurtful term. [quote]I dont have middle school kids, but slightly older. They are all about being a "girls girl" and building up their female counterparts.[/quote] That's good to hear. I have three daughters, all three of whom have graduated from college and entered the workforce. [quote]I also dont think that when women judge appearance it's often jealousy. Perhaps you hang out with a very jealous crew, but people judge for all sorts of reasons. Boiling down any negative comment to jealousy is lazy and petty. Humans are rounded individuals full of emotions and feelings. Far more than just jealousy. [/quote] Again, your writing is trite. Of course, humans have more emotions than jealousy, but this fact does not support your position that women do not judge other women's appearance jealously. Be honest. Have you ever said something about another woman's appearance to your friends to demean her (e.g., I cannot believe she wore a top that tight)? Of course, you have. [/quote] Are you a man? Judging by your getting into a physical fight over being called a nerd, I'm guessing so. And are you seriously trying to mansplain why women are catty and jealous? Wtf, gtfoh. [/quote]
