Idk what you want me to do? I see the writing on the wall, I don't hate women, I just think it's over. Men have a really bad reputation, and I don't see how that can change.

    Oh, I'm sorry, from your username being "WorldsDumbestMan" I just assumed you were actually larping as the world's dumbest (bears aren't "certain death" and I assumed you were being factious. I've met plenty of bears in the forest, they're fine (if startling as hell)).

    If you're sincerely asking what to do, just... maybe try to stop thinking of women as a separate category from men, for starters. Just treat them like people. You also very much don't have to solve this issue on your own, and the only realistic contribution you can make is to accept the current state and try to be the best person you can be while the cultural attitudes change for the better.

    I have a certain diagnosis, and self-esteem issues. It's getting more and more obvious that I'm probably just miss-diagnosed.

    I will sometimes exaggerate my own stupidity and say dumb shit, but I'm mostly serious.

    Regardless of how I treat women, the fact is that women don't feel safe around men, and this creates another division amongst people. And I could not in good faith, recommend a woman NOT carry a pepper spray around her, or bring a friend or two.

    I'd understand if they also had friends with them around me too, or took an U-turn. Nothing personal I guess.
