Thanks, saved me having to write that. There is a lot of valid criticism women can level against "the modern man", depending on the culture they live in. But this is not it. I have never heard of a guy claiming to be of higher status and cussing off a woman who rejected him. Maybe we sometimes think we're higher status than a woman or whatever, but then again we do that with other men too. It's a human thing, not a gender thing. Women most definitely categorize men into lower and higher strata subconsciously too, if nothing else.

"I, as a man, have never encountered this scenario myself. Therefore, it is completely made up and reason to be further misogynistic." Is all I saw there brother.

You're probably in good company then, but should still strive to do a lot better.

I'm glad to hear from someone else who is seeing what I'm seeing.

The sarcastic strong and independent woman vs a stupid man meme has nothing to do with reality whatsoever. The worst part is that it's masking some serious issues society is dealing with.
