Nearly every day I see a new thread full of sexist crap and pointless whining about how men can't get laid and how women are so unfair.
One thing so many fail to realize is, well you are the ass holes.
So many here view women as objects and feel they are entitled to sex for no reason other then the fact they exist (or some other even more stupid reason).
They don't want to do anything to try and improve themselves and make so many excuses.
The horrid sexism I see here shouldn't surprise me anymore, but it does. I was immature once, but I grew up, and there are so many here much older then me and act worse then I did at 17.

Frankly I don't care about lame excuses, or why you feel you deserve a girlfriend, this isn't a "nice guy" argument, nor an excuse to tell me your life story.
I won't listen.

This will bring us back to the "5 Hobbies That Impress Women" thread.

My advice to you:

If some anonymous person on the internet is bothering you, your most effective weapon is to ignore them.

its the majority of men on WP
which is a tad hard to ignore, they're seeping out of the love and dating forum

You seem to be the one upset with this place Kilroy so maybe you are the one in need of the hobby instead of continuing to spend your time here 8O
I couldn't resist but you do have a point

that's kewl but it seems hypocritical to tell the guys to get a hobby when you've been spending more time here. I'm not trying to attack you or anything but I'm trying to use logic. You are rite thou that lots of us need to spend less time here; I'm one of em

alright fine, I can tell this won't end
I had to quit my job due to some sicknesses (basically I had troubles eating so was gradually getting weaker and weaker and my job required me to walk, a lot) so thusly I have some free time in between looking for another, which, due to the Internet, I can do at the same time as posting here

It is very easy to develop a resentment of women if they reject you and you don't understand why, and what is interesting is that more socially incompetent someone is, the more they feel this, because they are the ones who honestly can't understand why women are rejecting them. I've been in this position before so I can understand why it is this way. Hopefully when I get back in the game I'll do better now since I know I have asperger's and can compensate for it. That being said I wonder if Kilroy is trying to impress the ladies by posting this stuff :lol:

But I have to agree. I haven't been here very long but some of the threads here do remind me of this:

I hope your feeling better & can find a new job soon.
I think our new hobby should be listening to Sam Kinison :twisted: The more I hear him scream about how he got used by women; the less desperate I am for a relationship

I agree - most aspie men do spend a good bit of time in front of their computers - so do I. But I try to get outside and socialize as much as I can. And I've got my aspie hobbies which are balanced out by my normal hobbies. I consider playing games like WoW and Magic more of a social impedance and social firewall with women than a "hobby".

Well, sure Kilroy, the men of this forum need a hobby, and they have one: Posting their sexist crap. If you don't like their hobby, don't partake in it. The bottom line is, the simple act of you telling them isn't going to help them get a hobby. That's a personal issue, one you say you used to have, but you grew up. I'm sure people used to tell you the same thing (although maybe you didn't post it on the Internet) and it didn't matter when they told you, did it? People would tell me the same things, and I never learned it until I figured it out on my own. Some things you have to learn from experience, and can't be taught to you.

Of course, this is an Asperger's forum. Would you expect anything less? It's not that people with Asperger's are bad, but when the whole world ostracizes you, and everyone like that gathers in a dating forum, how else would it turn out? And it's the INTERNET.

I have to say something for tough love though. Telling them that it is sexist and it is crap (where applicable) may help them understand why they are not getting women. The problem is women (or anyone else) won't tell you exactly what you did wrong socially so you can learn, which is why aspie's have so much trouble. For some guys it may be simply whining too much (something I have been guilty of :oops: ) But I would direct my criticisms to specific threads.

that video cracked me up (though i do like some sensitive men).

i dunno if Kilroy is trying to impress the ladies or not, but i think that when men stand next to women and speak alongside them and work with them instead of against them... well, i'm sure lots of women would agree that it is pretty sexy. go figure.

Kilroy, i agree wholeheartedly! and i am sorry to read about the job thing. i hope your health is okay.

i have been getting hypersensitive to some of the angry anti-female attitudes, so even smaller insinuations and assumptions are getting me riled up. the forum would be twice as helpful and twice as strong if there was less tendency for some men to push women away with their bitterness.

If you're referring to that hot woman post...you'd see that every guy on there is not referring to any attractive woman but particular NT women. And we are just observing, not hating. I think the male equivalent of them is just as much of a douche.

I just think the women on here are hyper-sensitive and take things personally...when we're not even talking about Aspie women, or most NT women.

I say the stuff I say, not to hate on women, but to give the below average looking guys on here a reality check and go for other below average looking women. And as I've said, below average looking men can get attractive women, but they usually have a social personality or similar lifestyle to make up for the looks deficit.
