Women only trans inclusive This is an inclusive community for all things women. Whether you're here for make up tips, feminism or just friendly chit chat, we've got you covered.
Rules…
- Women only… trans women are women, and transphobic or gender critical talk isn’t allowed. Anyone under the trans umbrella (e.g. non-binary, bigender, agender) is free to decide whether a women's community is a good fit for them.
- Don’t be a dick. No personal attacks, no aggression, play nice.
- Don’t hate on groups, hatefilled talk about groups is not allowed. Ever.
- No governmental politics, so no talk of Trump actions etc. We recommend Feminism@beehaw.org for that, but here is an escape from it.
- New accounts or users with few comments may have their posts removed to prevent spam and bad-faith participation.

This reminds me of the moment i was actively listening to the lyrics of "paranoid” for the first time (i heared the song before, i just didn't really listen)
And i thought:
Well, Ozzy, maybe that's because:
Anyway, in my experience men never really want "help" or change things. They just like complaining about stuff. They complain about their own flaws and especially yours (his partners) flaws, flaws in the world, the politics, persons at work, the boss. In my experience whenever i offered help to deal with some stuff they usually complained about, they don't want to hear it. They don't even want to try. They just expect you to be some sort of sponge that absorbs all the rambling about everything that sucks for them.
Totally agree with everything you say about Ozzy. And there are too many men who just don't do what they need to do about THEIR problems
Good to know and bad for Geezer
He was snowblind too.
thanks for your comment, but unfortunately this community has a rule that only women are permitted to comment. Hope you understand 💙

Ok, didn’t even see that, I just randomly saw this post and didn’t know the rules👌 (I’ll be quiet now)
Wow! Thank you for being so civilized with this. It's not something I see in this group every day.
no worries - that's very common, and thanks for your understanding 💕
Well, i don't usually date women, so can not really tell what is a "woman"-thing or a "man"-thing to do. It is possible that it is just a "human"-thing. However, the post was specifically asking for our experiences with men, so...
Maybe late disclaimer: this is just my experience (as i said), my experience does not mean your experience is not true/valid/plausible/meaningful. Women can also be at fault/problematic/the problem (obviously and nobody even claimed that). Not all men are like that (obviously and nobody even claimed that).
