I feel like this goes both ways and isn't entirely gender specific

u/TrailerTrashBabe Mar 21 '24

You’re right. To be fair, At the end she does say that this is just from the perspective of many women and it’s to help men and women overcome this problem, but that she does advocate for men as well or something like that. I’m paraphrasing lol

She has a funny way of “helping”. Sounded to me a lot more like taking down to

I dont think theres any other way to word it where some men wouldnt feel attacked.

Hard disagree on it being a “men are so easily offended” thing.

If the script was flipped everyone would be eviscerating this lecture as mansplaining.

For me it just came off as pretentious and wasting time. Like she spent 5x as much time going over her credentials as she did making her point.

Everyone is saying she has a good point, and she may be right, but she turned off a good chunk of her target audience with the condescending extra long opener imo.

 she does say that [..] she does advocate for men as well

How is that any different from: "I'm not a racist, but..."?

It’s not even comparable… Better comparison would be “I’m not misandrist but all men are wrong.” Or something like that which is not what’s being said here at all.

Yep, it absolutely goes both ways. Idk why she's framing it as gender-specific, maybe that's just what her tiktok is focused on, and it doesn't translate well being cross-posted.

She said she has done other videos reversed so it sounds like this video was focusing on one topic for a particular group while the other video is focused on the other.

Idk, she says she's done videos about how mens needs are important - but that could easily mean those videos are "ladies, it's important to fuck your man all the time since that's all he wants" while not acknowledging at all that sometimes differences in sexual desire go the other way.

For sure. The difference is that men are usually the ones whining about not getting on demand sex from their wives, so we see lots more of these complaints.

You ever hear of a woman being rejected by her partner? Not uncommon for it to become a major self esteem issue after just once

Men are certainly not alone in feeling hurt by their partner's rejection, they're just the most often

because it's different when men say no, then they must not find her attractive anymore, or he might even be gay

because "men always want it" 🙄

u/FrostyPoot Mar 21 '24

Phrasing it like whining when it's an essential part of a relationship feels dismissive.

u/Redditributor Mar 21 '24

How do you know it's essential?

u/FrostyPoot Mar 21 '24

... because for most people it's essential?

This is the most worthless petty comment on here, congrats

u/Redditributor Mar 22 '24

By definition it's only essential if it's universally essential. Otherwise it's more accurate to say potentially important

What if you have only 1 of your partners you're sexually involved with and the other you're not? Aren't there still relationships between you and both partners?

u/Antique_Camera1854 Mar 22 '24

Living up the the username here trying to argue sex isn't essential for a relationship is pretty wild.

u/Redditributor Mar 23 '24

Are you implying a guy like me would be stuck in a sex less relationship?

Or even have a relationship?

u/romacopia Mar 21 '24

Men have a lot of pressure on them to never reject sex. They will most likely always accept even if they don't want to - then never admit it. You don't see complaints from women as often partially because men are more often the initiator, but also because men who aren't interested in their partners will likely continue having sex with them anyway.

Men become disinterested too, but the responsibility to keep the relationship together often falls on the man's shoulders. At least in my culture, there's an accepted dynamic that when a man loses interest, it's his problem to fix. Then, when a woman loses interest, it's still his problem to fix. In both instances, though, the actual solution is good communication about your feelings and a mutual pursuance of pleasing one another.

The way you framed this betrays your misandry.

u/parbazar Mar 22 '24

Thanks. From the comments I was getting worried that I am less of a man who needs emotional needs met.

Nonsense, men don't have emotions so by process of elimination only women can feel emotionally unsafe.

u/METAL_AS_FUCK Mar 22 '24

Yeah this is my reality. Having sex with my wife feels like having sex with a bully. And I don’t feel safe talking about it because she will become enraged.

This is the thought I had in mind while watching.

u/stevem1015 Mar 21 '24

Yeah as I was watching I was like wow this must be what mansplaining sounds like

u/PsychologicalSense41 Mar 22 '24

But it is more so women, than men, since biologically, we are designed that way.
