OK, how about this..
Hetero women do not often force themselves onto gay men to try and rape the "gay" out of them, whereas, this phenomena is not so rare with hetero men and gay women. Since a significant portion of gay women have probably felt this pressure, it follows that they would resent hetero men in general as an artifact of their experiences.
So it would not surprise me to find a sliver of truth in his claim, but that sliver would be fully explained by the general assholery of some men.
Men bully more often than women. There are social acceptance and physical inequalities that unbalance the ratio. No big secret..

So, like I said, the problem is not so much the lesbians, but the straight men.

By contrast, I have never observed, neither on tv nor with my own eyes, any instance of a lesbian woman having any interest in friendships with men, let alone the kind of close friendships that gays tend to have with straight women.
Indeed, I have observed gay men being approached by women, and the interaction turned very friendly very fast. By contrast, I have seen a few times men approaching lesbians who were spoken to appallingly and very rudely.
So my question is mainly for those people here who like to believe that nature is a social construct. My question is :
Is the fact that lesbians by and large don't like men a social construct too? Should that be stamped out also?
I'm sure there will be some of you who just happen to know about a huge number of exceptions, but my question is for those of you who choose to be honest.
Thanks for your time. I look forward to your intelligent comments.
I can think of one answer but you're not going to like it...

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment)

I think it has to do more with straight men than lesbians. Straight men generally aren't interested in finding women friends who are just friends.

So the social construct is religiously biased "straight" men?
