That was quite the rant my man. I didn't see anything 'man-hating' in the post to which you replied.

In fact, she concluded the post with:

I feel that she is showing respect to men here. Just not males such as yourself. Surely you can see why.

You treat women as an alien species, rather than a different version of yourself.

It seem it's you with all the hate. Take a deep breath and look back at your post. Seems as if you are raging. Is her post as 'hateful' as yours?

Sort yourself out.

Thank you for pointing this out.

I do not hate men and never have. I have all the respect for people (many of them men) who have come to Thailand for whatever reason and have made Thailand their home. Many have loving relationships with their Thai partners (married or not) and some also have raised beautiful families. I know and am friends with many foreign men who fit into that category. What I object to and have called out is some people on this forum who speak disparagingly of women and speak of them in a less than respectful manner. This seems to be especially true when these men speak about "western women." I understand that some people may have had bad experiences in a relationship with a women from their home countries (who hasn't had a bad relationship in the past.) But, I would certainly never put down put all "western men" because of a single bad experience and I would hope that others would do the same. Thank you.

I told you social media was ruining things. Now even Isaan girls are lecturing us on "respectful manner".

Soon you'll be arrested for looking at women in Thailand too. Not far off.

Can you afford a few therapy sessions?

@CharlieH's signature used to state something along the lines of; "I can explain it to you, but I cannot understand it for you".

Even your reply to me is filled with rage and hatred. That is within you, it has nothing to do with any woman here.

She's a person, just like you. Why do you hate her?

You appear to be getting "confused" I have not asked for nor do I require any explanation. what I have asked for is some evidence to back up your statement

IE.

" You treat women as an alien species"

So produce some evidence or retract the stupid statement and apologise ,

"rage and hatred " you really have no idea do you ? You are hardly worthy of either,

It's true that I may be hardly worthy of it, but that didn't appear to curb your behaviour.

You need evidence? Look at the emoji responses to the posts concerned. Would you prefer to convince yourself that it was only women who responded? Surely the collective 'we' of men, to whom you alluded in your post, would have backed you up in your statement. Where are they?

Is that not evidence enough for you, that most people do not agree with your statements nor the way you responded to the woman?

Believe me, there are some people on this board who would happily apply a negative emoji to my posts given the opportunity, but few people would disagree that your rant towards her was quite over the top.

Furthermore, I view your behaviour as quite hypocritical. You use the term 'woke' as a weapon, but at the same time appear to want to stifle free speech. The woman has her own perspective and is entitled to express it...or would you prefer that she kept quiet and cowered in fear of you?

This is not about 'woke' nor 'anti-woke', but what appears to be a man somewhat limited in the way he can express himself, taking his frustrations out on a woman. That's weak sauce, in my humble opinion.

Why not explain to her with love and intelligence why you think she is wrong?

That's your problem isn't it? You just aren't capable, so no one can really love and respect you, for you.

You have to be worthy of respect, rather than to try to demand it. People may just despise you. Openly or hidden. Up to you.

Well, well another man threatened by the presence of a strong, opinionated woman having a voice. Don't you know that a "real" man is one who is self-confident and self-assured enough to not be intimidated by a woman who is thier equal. A true man doesn't need a woman to be inferior in order to feel masculine. I am so glad that the world is full of many men that are not as threatened as you. :)

Almost nobody on this planet is my equal.

Man or woman, no intimidation here, and no lack of confidence.

As for a true man,

That's any guy that doesnt have sex with other men, even if the other men pretend they are women.

No women on this forum,

The occaisonal man (usually Australian) pretending to be a woman though.

I copped a mouthful from a western woman member on this forum recently.

She was bitching about my woke and lefty comments.

Bloody nagging western women, they won't stop pestering me 😂

Women have sole access to their women only safe spaces, they should be required to remain there, OR, men should have access to men only areas, we used to enjoy such privileges until they were removed in the interests of "fairness" and "equality"

You seem to have a most pleasant character. That must be the reason behind your rip roaring success with your own kind. Your mother, your sisters...all western?

Is this your safe space?

Perhaps you can ask Admin to create one for you and your friend.

I think what she is saying, is that if you aren't sub human, you can maintain a relationship with a human being/woman without the need for financial inducements.

The ones that simply don't care, are likely pervy sexpats.

Yet buying gifts , including gold and jewelry, even giving cash for ones partner to spend on themselves, is a perfectly natural manifestation of affection in a "normal" relationship, something neither you or your bunny boiler, man hating, bff would know little about

The ones that repeatedly mention "pervy sexpats" are normally the most perverted of the lot , that applies to males and females whatever they "identify" as

No, it isn't. That's learned behaviour. Those who follow the crowd. I didn't learn that. My dad didn't buy my mum nor did she accept goods in return for her affection.

People who give freely can create and maintain loving relationships by nature. Those who view life as transactional...

Your path seems to have left you angry and embittered. So which of us took the right path?

In which branch of psychology did you learn that? Making things up to try to make yourself feel better doesn't work does it?

You were kind not to mention the reality that their own children despise them. They failed in life, especially as fathers. As a result, they blame others, especially women for their own failures.
