Uh, I was never being sexist, and I never said women are superior, but sorry, from MY personal experiances, men aren't exactly all that great. And I'm sorry if I offended, you, but I never said any **** like that, and if anyones offending another, its definately you.
It doesn't really matter whether you were being sexist or not, the fact is that tone of your post seemed offensive in the regard that there are men out there who are nothing like the men you have met in the past, and that you failed to take that into consideration.
Grow up, you say? Haha, you think 4 years makes that much of a difference? News flash, buddy, women mature faster than men, so I think we're about equal.
Physical maturity has nothing to do with mental maturity. Unfortunately, when you tried proving your point you did nothing more than make a double standard for yourself. Granted women do mature physically quicker than men, but maturing mentally is a whole different story. Mentally most men and women mature at the same rate. However, there are certain instances where a younger person may be mentally mature more on intelligence and their perception of the world around them than a person older than them. However, this all falls back on past experiences as well, and the adaptation to them.
For example, official certified psychological tests show that I am more mature than the average twenty year old due to my past experiences. I had to grow up pretty fast, and learn some harsh lessons very early in life. I became analytical at a very young age, and took in the world around me much more than the other kids did. Mental maturity also comes from experience not just intelligence. To you a four year difference doesn't seem like much, but in actuality it is. I have experienced things that you haven't yet. I know things that you don't just by growing up.
You have a lot of growing up to do, as do I. Your remarks show me that your mindset is that of a typical sixteen year old teenager. You still have a lot to learn about people, and how the world works. Even I must gain more experience, but I must admit that I had also learned, knew, and understood things that other kids didn't when I was at your age. My advice to you is to study more on the subject by doing extensive research in psychology by reading books, taking classes, and studying up on the subject. I think you will not only learn more about yourself and where you stand mentally, but I think you will also learn how to make your mind more mature before giving way to uneducated judgments.
Its funny how you took most offense without even trying to understand what I was trying to say, but then again, theres no one to blame here but yourself. I've met some ******* in my life too, but I've met more assholes... sorry
I think it is you who doesn't get it. I understood perfectly well where you were coming from. You are obviously a bisexual who has made a very narrow minded judgment in the regard of tagging most if not all men as bastards just because of your past experiences with your poor qualities and lack of maturity in picking the right man. Rather than seeking a man that truly fits your needs you instead go with the lowest of the low showing your immaturity not only in mindset and age, but also with concept of understanding and handling relationships. Your reasoning for love and relationships is irrational, immature, and perfectly normal for a girl your age. Most women don't mature mentally on the basis of love and relationships until the age of twenty-two.
You have a lot of growing up to do, and I'm sure you will think differently once you are older, gained more experience, and have grasped a better understanding on love and relationships. However, I must warn you that if you continue to have such a narrow mindset towards men that it may eventually harm you in the end, and cause very deep emotional scarring, especially if you do fall for a guy that you wish to have a long term relationship with, but continue to believe in your current politic. I am not trying to start an argument with you, nor am I trying to belittle you. I just want you to think twice before making such judgmental comments like the one that you made. Not only will you offend and hurt other people around you and make them jump to conclusions due to your tone and lack of better judgment, but you can and will eventually hurt yourself if you do not change your ways. Gain some experience, open your mind, and be rational before you make those type of judgments. It will make you a whole better person in the end not only with maturity, but also emotionally as well.
