    Jesus christ I gave you the benefit of the doubt the first time, but what a sexist and mysoginistic way of thinking of it.

    “Oh yeah she’s broke, but she wouldn’t be if she just sold her body”. Screw you dude, yeah the youtuber is a jerk but I don’t care who it is, the solution should never be “Oh just become a prostitute”. Like that’s some glamorous job that people grow up dreaming of doing. Then the "she’ll just get married and " blah blah blah. I don’t know what woman hurt you in the past, but the anger at all women in general is definitely misdirected and you need to take a long, hard look at yourself.

    Jesus, the amount of sexism and just anger at women here is insulting, and I’m a man, by the way, so you don’t just brush off my opinion because I might be a woman.

      We had the same train of though. At first I was like ‘This guy is just a little dumb’ and then saw the second post and was like ‘They really don’t respect women’

        Incel culture needs to be shamed out, and I know so because I was one for a while. I thought women were all against me, that they just didn’t get me, and I stereotyped them just like that guy did. It wasn’t until I met one of my best friends who was a woman who was incredibly patient in helping me get out of that. I had to realize that it wasn’t women, it was me. I was an asshole, I was a jerk to a lot of people and I hid behind a false sarcasm that I thought was sophisticated but really it was just me being mean.

        Life gets a lot easier when you drop all of that. You learn that you should just be yourself, and that sounds cliche but being yourself isn’t being mean on the internet, engage in hobbies, clean up yourself and your life, and just be nice to people. Now 15 years later I’m happily married and I’d claim successful, and I know I wouldn’t be if I had held onto those shitty beliefs. Anger and resentment only brings on more anger and resentment.
