35 Times Women Were Put Into Awkward Situations By Men And Called Them Out Online

Having a good relationship is pretty difficult because apparently, men are busy putting women in awkward situations. But the women calling them out online is what making us happy.

The subreddit r/FemaleDatingStrategy has 175K members (or as it calls them, queens), constantly discussing their love lives, and that includes all the nonsense that arises too. Continue scrolling and check out what they have to say.

Men Only Bringing The Audacity, Yet Again, To The Table!

To help you get a better understanding of these posts, we got in touch with a dating coach, 2 million view TED speaker, and media personality Hayley Quinn. She believes that “dating is different for men and women. However, you’d be wrong to think that one gender has it easy.”

“Instead men and women often face equal and opposite problems to one another,” Quinn said. “Guys might struggle to think of how to approach a woman, and women (who traditionally and maybe wrongly) have been told they can’t make the first move and so panic over where they can find all the guys that want to approach them.”

Say It Louder For The People In The Back!!

Poetic Justice

In the world of online dating, Quinn also sees noticeable disparities. “Guys may feel like they’re having to move heaven and earth to get one lousy response from a woman, whilst women can feel overwhelmed and harassed by unsuitable suitors,” she explained. “Men could usually learn from women that they need to have higher standards for the women they interact with, and women could take a leaf out of men’s dating and learn how they too can be proactive.”

“Nudes?” He Asked Hopefully

In 2020, the Pew Research Center surveyed Americans to find out more about their love life. While single-and-looking men and women reported equal levels of dissatisfaction with their dating lives and the ease of finding people to date, women were more likely to say they have had some particularly negative experiences.

Most women who were single and looking to date (65%) said they have experienced at least one of six harassing behaviors asked about in the survey from someone they were dating or had been on a date with, such as being touched in a way that made them uncomfortable or rumors being spread about their sexual history.

Stop Normalizing Men’s Immaturity

“Though men might think women have guys queuing up to date them (which sounds great right?) in reality women face plenty of dating challenges,” Quinn said. “They may feel emotionally drained by dating, as they push through dates where they don’t feel a connection. If they’re seeking a relationship they may struggle to tell which guy’s going to be in for the long haul, and who will disappear at the first inkling of commitment. They may even not know how to get offline and actually meet men in real life; and get stuck in the belief that all the ‘good men’ have run out, and it’s impossible to meet someone.”

The dating coach added that women also face significantly more judgement around things like their age, which can be a challenge on dating apps; and more scrutiny for expressing their sexuality. “So don’t think that just because she’s got a queue of potential suitors that she’s not having a hard time dating.”

We all can be douches to one another. Let’s not.
