    I mean there’s all sorts of people out there, some women are in fact incredibly shallow. So are some men. Realizing that genders aren’t monolithic beings that you interact with identical avatars of is probably the first lesson these losers should be taking to heart. Another one is that other people being shitty doesn’t justify doing so yourself. It’s a pathetic cope for sure.

      Oh, of course, gender is bullshit.

      I was more talking about socialisation. Men aren’t naturally more shallow than women, but they are socialised to commodify them. “Society says you’ve made it if you have this house, this car, this type of woman.” So a lot of them end up objectifying women they same way they would a car, as a product to indicate wealth.

      It’s the exact conditioning grifters like Jordan Peterson tap into.
