    I’m so confused. So every man will call a woman a fat bitch if he gets rejected. Is that the world we live in?

      A little before the me too movement, there was a yes all women, as a response to this sort of thing. No not all men act like this. But pretty much every woman has dealt with a few men acting like this. More if you move around in public a lot. Fewer if you drive everywhere and don’t go out much. Very very few once you’re visibly old.

      It’s so weird that you’re reading “every” where it does not exist. Maybe this will help:

      Have you ever eaten a bad oyster? It’s pretty unpleasant. Now imagine that you’ve had not just one, but 6 to a dozen bad oysters on separate occasions. Rationally you’ll still understand that not all oysters are bad, probably even recognize that most aren’t - but you’ll still probably think twice about ordering oysters at a restaurant. And I bet if you do take that chance, and you do end up getting sick from a bad oyster, you’ll say to yourself “that’s what I expected.”

      Kind of yeah? My friends encounter this phenomenon. It’s definitely not every man but these days everyone of my female buds is in long term commited relationships and if they get approached by a guy a lot of the time they will often cite the relationship they are in before their no and these guys will keep pushing. It means that they get stuck in the most awkward situation where the guy won’t leave. Those girls that have gotten angry from not having their no listened to (particularly from the frustration of dealing with this often) have risked using a stronger no saying they aren’t interested or to please leave them be and there’s always a really good chance the guy will try to enact some kind of revenge. Guys getting verbally abusive is the most common outcome.

      Oftentimes with attractive folk there’s a buddy system in play where someone will come to your rescue to end the interaction.
