Why are there so many...


White knights around here? In my experience, it won’t help you to get laid and it’s just pathetic.

Nobody? Too busy defending women?

reply

Well this was embarassing.

Did David Lynch write that comment, because it was just strange.

reply

Lots of people over 50 here and they still have that mentality of defending women even if the women aren't being attacked. They just love that chance at a pat on the head.

They also think that women should never ever be questioned or criticized.

reply

I’m under 50 and I think women should be treated differently than men

It's a huge subject. The problem with White Knights is they lack objectivity. So for example when you say women should be treated differently to men on the one hand I do agree with you. But on the other hand society pushes this concept of equality as well as gender being a social construct if you look at the ones who take it to an extreme.

My point is they can't have it both ways. If a woman wants to be a soldier or a cop for example than she has to accept she might get killed and it's just not practical for her or society to expect men to come running to her rescue. I work in a field where I deal with lots of critical incidents and the amount of times female cops attend to a situation and don't do anything physical until the men arrive is quite high.

Not saying you are a White Knight either just giving an example of the hypocrisy at work with the whole gender discussion.

reply

The concept of gender equality is not an issue in my community, at least within my circles. The only reason I am aware of it is from social media and news outlets. I base my opinions off of my actual life and not this other noise.

I treat all females how I would want my wife, mother or my daughters treated.

reply

I treat women the same as I treat men. I'm polite and respectful. I don't see any reason to put women on pedestals like the white knights do.

reply

where are the White Knights? i want to see one!

reply

If what a man really wants out of life is to get laid a lot, without having to take any shit from women...

He should put all his energy into his career, and use his disposable income to hire prostitutes. If a person doesn't want a relationships, the don't have one.

reply

Yes because you can’t love both: having sex AND be in a relationship...

reply

I haven't seen any on here, but it doesn't bother me unless the woman is an obvious troll. Not going to name names from the other forum.
