I've been around here a while and I do think that your observation is not inaccurate. However, as Carl Sagan said, "The absence of evidence is not the same thing as evidence of absence." Until you can point to several posts with nearly identical wording from both men and women where the responses were clearly more negative to the men's posts, then you just don't have enough to go on. It has been my experience that men and women describe their relationships and their relationship desires quite differently. Men tend to talk in terms of what they want for themselves while women tend to talk in terms of what they want for the relationship. This difference causes readers to react differently. We (in general, not just we who post here) tend to see selfishness as a negative character trait and respond accordingly.
So, how do you like being both right and wrong at the same time?
I wasn't writing a thesis merely pointing out an observation.
In one statement you ask that I reference "several post with near identical wording" to support my assertion. In the next breath you say that men and women express their desires differently, which causes readers to react differently.
By your own admission you both agree and disagree with me?
