If I have to see one more tweet or facebook status comment about gold digging women, or cheating men I will punch someone in the snatch.
I am all for stereotypes and snap judgements, they please me and keep me entertained. But bullshit inaccurate gender stereotypes just irritate me because they’re not even close to fact.
Let’s play a game, see if you can guess the genders in the below scenarios:
1. This person was dating someone for a couple of months. They slept together for the first time and this person dumped them the next day because the sex was bad. The other person was a virgin before they slept together.
2. This person slept with someone else a month after returning from their honeymoon. Their spouse doesn’t know and they don’t have plans to ever tell them.
3. After 3 wedding celebrations this person left their spouse only 6 months later with no explanation. They’ve been having an affair with a work colleague and had slept with them the night of their wedding.
4. This person had been with their partner since they were teenagers. This person passed on an STD to their partner after cheating on them, and accused them of cheating rather than owning up.
These things all happened, are all true. Below are the genders:
1. This was a girl, sure she was only in her late teens but so not cool regardless of age. This girl is one of my best friends.
2. This is a dude. Another friend of mine, not a cunt but a cunty thing.
3. This is a girl, her husband is a friend of mine. Needless to say she’s not my friend anymore.
4. This is a dude.
So, we have girls cheating on people, lying. Turns out boys also cheat and lie.
Colour me stunned.
People can be arseholes. People can be goldiggers. People can be liars and people can cheat.
Not every female is a lying bitch who will lie about pregnancies to trap men. Not every female is only interested in a man’s bank balance.
Every time you state these as facts you not only insult every cool girl out there who would never dream of doing these things but you insult me.
Not all men are useless deadbeat Dad’s. Not all men are cheating lying arseholes who are playing you.
And every time you state these as facts you insult every decent loyal man out there who is incapable of doing any of these things. You insult your fathers, your brothers, your future husband.
I’m just tired of these snipes, from both sides. I’m tired of people lumping me in with a small minority of people who are douchebags. I’m tired of people tarring every guy with the same brush, of writing off decent guys because you once dated a complete schmuck.
That’s all.
(Ps – I have some kind of funky cheat infection and have been off sick for the past 2 days. Until Poppy develops opposable thumbs someone come over and stroke my hair please.)
