The trait I like least in men is being "macho". I could elaborate, but I think most people will know what I mean. The trait I like least in women is tarring all men with the same brush. I'm of course not saying all men or all women exhibit these traits, they don't. So I'm not trying to tar women with the tar brushing brush
You notice some women that lump all men in a negative fashion because you are male so it is directed at you.Some men do the same thing to women and I notice that more because I am a woman.
Television is horrible about using stereotypes. In many sitcoms, the man is an idiot and the woman-usually his wife- is uptight. I have male friends who complain about television stereotypes of their own sex but don't see until I point it out to them that the wife is also being stereotyped in a negative fashion. Both stereotypes are wrong and harmful.
Sorry to the OP to get off topic.
