Men and Women Are Too Segregated
On dating apps, social media, and even here on Medium, many of us are too easily triggered, reactionary, defensive, furious, and…..really lonely
It’s more difficult to hate someone you know.
Before our opinions were filtered through an algorithm that only rewards hate and rage, young men and women would get to know each other in person: bowling, roller skating, riding bikes, skateboarding, or having a co-ed party and playing spin the bottle.
We’ve all been socially engineered to crave endless hours of heart-racing, blood-pumping, dopamine drenching, molten hot, rage.
We’re addicted to fury.
Telling feminists they’re man-hating bigots will get you much more attention than saying feminists have some very legitimate points but might be painting with too broad of a brush.
Telling misogynistic, chauvinistic, men they’re barbaric, neanderthals who should be placed in concentration camps will get you infinitely more followers and likes than saying men abuse, demean, diminish, and dominate women, but quite a few are trying to navigate and adjust to an environment where women are surpassing them in education and the workplace.
I’ve interacted with dozens, probably hundreds of women (and men) here on Medium.
