RE: A Serious Headache ... Toxic Visitor
You are viewing a single comment's thread:
Men have toxic behaviors, too, but they seem to manifest in different ways. I can't recall hearing a man "play the victim" and only a few of them will act in a passive-aggressive manner. Very true.
There are plenty, however, that come across as "know-it-alls" who always claim to know a better version of the truth (or even a different truth) more clearly than anyone in the room. I have known many more men with explosive tempers than women, and their resulting tirades make everyone uncomfortable and even afraid at times. Plenty of them talk-down to women in condescending ways, and "mansplain" things because they think women are stupid. Plenty of them talk non-stop and don't let anyone else have a say in conversation — I remember someone on the blockchain came into a [supposedly] "group chat" on Discord one night and spoke in one of the voice-channels for two solid hours and the other dozen of us could hardly get a word in, edgewise, with all his talking. (This is a very recurring theme among men I have known.) Then there's the opposite side of the coin, the man who never communicates, who catches you (unpleasantly) by surprise with something he's been planning for days or weeks, yet never mentioned. There are plenty of men on the blockchain that don't believe women should be here simply because we're women and crypto should be a "man's world." I have heard women bashed many times because of this.
So, yes, I think men can be toxic, too, but in different ways than women.
Oh sure men can be toxic too. It's just that, with a few exceptions, I've never had that much to do with that in my life. The exceptions I met were also very bad, I will not say anything about that. But overall, I've had more bad experiences with toxic women than men.
It is just that often men are already supposed to exhibit such behavior, where women are always supposed to be sweet and soft, and toxic behavior often is covered with the mantle of love from the age-old role pattern that the man must protect the woman. Where, however, that is not always justified ...
Thank you for your visit and reply
yeh, some men certainly do not like women in crypto unless it's in a sexual manner but there are enough women with biz minds that don't have to deal with the monologues ( i get it). Like the proverbial duck , have learned over time to let most things roll off my back like water, then I listen to this song
Good song, and I had forgotten how entertaining the video is! Thanks for the reminder! 😁
