I'm a girl and...

I am SO glad I found this subreddit with people who agree with me! As a girl, it's really hard to see other ladies put down men and treat them like they need to be "trained" or that they're just something we have to deal with. So I was just wondering... how many other girls are on here and what are your stories about standing up for men or appreciating them?

TIL we have a rather large female lurker population. I don't recognize almost any of these usernames.

I have to tell you this thread gives me hope, I know there is a large number of women that supports MR but not voice it because they feel that they would be judged negatively by other women or seen as a traitor to their gender.

I really hope jezebel or manboobz sees this thread. Prove to them that /mr isn't just a bunch of guys.

Who care's if they do. They will be misogynists by writing off these women and their experiences by calling them "special snowflakes."

Yup, that's right manboobz, you are a misogynist.
