Men Vs. Women

Friday Jun 30, 2006

Now the net is a very big place.
There are way too many to count places on the net that are geared at men and many that are geared at women.
Recently something started bugging me.. Okay SOMEONE rather.

A guy was banned at Amazingly Woman because he was well A GUY. Its a web site/community for WOMEN. Many women feel more comfortable knowing that its a website for women. Discussions take place about home life, relationships, kids, parenting, domestic crap, ect. And they feel more comfortable sharing when they feel the security of being around other women.

Its nothing more than being around a group of women and when a man walks up the entire group goes quiet until the man leaves. Its no different.

Now the anonymity that the net allows for makes some think they can come in and ask questions that MOST women in a group would not answer in real life. Or when the guy asks a group of women that he does NOT know the question they think PERVERT instantly and in most cases they are correct.

Now what is bugging me is that the other day a guy registered on AW and made a post. Of course it was one of those that you instantly think,”WTH is this guy thinking? Freaking pervert!”

He comes in asking about masturbation. To a community of women who talk about their lives and kids ect.
He is banned for it because well HE IS A GUY and the ladies there expect admin to keep people like that out.
He then emails the admin asking if he was banned. Admin replies that he was yes infact banned. He emails back over and over again calling them gay and feminazis..

Now that just makes the guy look like an idiot and childish which partly.. He probably was nothing more than a teenager playing a game.. But what is bugging me about the whole thing is this..

Why does having a place for moms and women to go and discuss things with out men around make them feminazis? Why does them wanting a place just for them make them that way? Most of the women there are mothers who lead very busy lives and sometimes need advice and friendship of others who are in their shoes with out questions of masturbation or sexual preferences from strange guys looming about.

And what is the obsession of some (NOTE I did not say ALL or men in general) men who feel the need to invade the space? Sometimes its seems like they feel all macho and powerful because they “snuck in” to a womans site and pretended to be a chick.. WOO HOO YOU GO DUDE!!!!!!!!!!! Its like a guy hiding in a closet at a slumber party..ONLY they wont be seeing anyone changing clothes or dolled up in night clothes and they wont get to hear who is crushing on who because well that went out in high school!

I don’t think a place for women to talk without guys around makes women gay or feminazi’s at all! I mean, do guys want women invading every aspect of their lives? absolutely not! That guy just has issues.

I guess I could kind of understand it if the guy had a sincere question because, after all, aren’t we always wishing men could read our minds? However, the fact that he asked that type of question is what should get him banned.
