I thought this was supposed to be a forum for people who like to discuss topics candidly and with sincerity, instead you're all so shitscared of the truth and you hide behind political correctness. What's the matter with people here? We all know that women and men are largely very different. It's the elephant in the room but you're so shitscared of it.
Don't confuse disagreeing with you with being shitscared of speaking the truth.
It's not about political correctness, nor is it an inability to recognize men and women have differences. The problem is that you're using these differences as a justification to have a negative attitude towards one and a positive towards the other. You're ignoring the positive attributes of women and the negative attributes of men, and then you righteously claim to speak the truth about men and women as if somehow the truth was something that can be reached without half the facts.

Or when a positive generalization is made about women, again, not a peep. But as soon as someone makes a negative observation about general female characteristics and behaviour, everyone is all up in arms. That's hypocrisy.
That is an issue that society has to deal with, not a defense for disliking a group of people based upon generalizations. You see people as their gender, rather than all of the traits that make the individual. There are shitty men and wonderful women out there, but you'll never see it with your blinders on.
