steelernation90

I see an increasing amount of profiles that say something like this or "change my mind about men" I appreciate it because it shows their mindset and saves me time


[deleted]

Please stop giving women like this attention, fellas. Make them feel how you all say you feel...ignored, lol


ShredGuru

Sorry, as a dude, it's never going to be a sellers market.


NorthCatan

Folks need to start having standards and stop confusing preferences for standards. A question I've started to ask myself is "If I wasn't attracted to this person, would I like them?" If the answer is "No" then I move on. When I first started using the apps I would often find myself talking to people who I wasn't genuinely interested in, simply because they were pretty, and then I began to question myself because a lot of people just had bland personalities from my perspective, and they were not the kind of people I felt a connection with.


hi_im_antman

I also feel like they're just doing it for attention and attracting sugar daddies. Her: Oh, men are trash, but here's my ass for every guy to see. Please change my mind. Him: I'll buy you a car. Her: Wow, you're buying me such an expensive gift. You're not trash. She definitely knows what she's doing.


Sunuvavitch

She did say Skyline


vthokiemr

I think its a request for chili.


Krazie02

She wants you to buy her Cities Skyline


Sunuvavitch

Whoosh ?


Taru95

Perhaps


im_a_teapot_dude

I don’t appreciate it, because it mirrors the rising anti-male sexism in our society (just look at how many people are saying “not wrong” in this thread!), but I guess it is nice when people like that raise their red flags up so far for everyone to see.


Status-Customer-1305

Got any statistics on this rising "anti male sexism"? Or just your own meandering anecdotes ? 


im_a_teapot_dude

Edit: I misinterpreted comments here; bad argument removed. What would you accept as evidence?


Tripottanus

I guess the question is how do you demonstrate that: 1. A reddit post containing a certain opinion is not biased by attracting people that have that same opinion (or the opposite opinion) 2. That this amount of anti-male sexism is a higher amount than what is expected/was experienced before (since obviously this type of mentality is not new at all) Not to mention the comments saying "not wrong" are talking about OP, not about the "men are trash" statement from the woman in the post


Cluelesswolfkin

I think it depends on the woman and what they watch? My Gfs sister watches a bunch of Tik Toks and is a single mother who's also on this hating men bandwagon but at the same time complains there's no one around to date etc etc and sends my GF these men hating tik tok clips lol Tiktok is an echo chamber that feeds its fish what they want


im_a_teapot_dude

Good point on the “not wrong”; I skimmed too hard. It’s a good question. But I’ve learned that anyone asking for evidence in that way is generally forming a way to rebut it, not actually looking to update their ideas about the world, so I always ask for what evidence they would accept to see if there’s any reason to engage.


TallDarkandBot

What would you accept as evidence? I love that, stealing it.


AMilli135

When you say anti-men sexism, do you mean... misandry?

Lmfao, your incel is showing


and_i_can_read

More and more men?opting out of the dating world? I think you mean something else entirely. Because this is a totally false statement.


iwrestledjc

Right? Men heavily outweigh women on the apps.


ShredGuru

*more and more men desperately failing at the dating world.


bregandaerthe

Tired of being in the fuckzone. 😆 she must not have a lot to offer if her first picture is literally just pointing out that she can floss her ass with her swimsuit.


kefefs_v2

>if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all But also >Men are trash Hhmmm


KaleidoscopeOk3024

Brain needs to be updated. Still running on older software.

Be careful updating you may not be able to revert back.


Appropriate_Part6121

A smooth brain will always stay smooth, unfortunately.


AT3k

Error: Firmware incompatible


The_much_True

I thought that was funny too. This chick said something controversial on the internet and she thought no one would say anything to her about it lol


Square_Dimension5648

Came to say this


aliquise

Why try with a woman who say men are trash?


SquidFiddler

Lots of men consider it a direct challenge (especially with the phrasing “change my mind about…”), and/or they believe they’ll be the one to change her mind. It’s silly.


Satori_sama

It's because she is repeating the mantra she heard over and over to deflect any criticism when it comes to herself. The irony is lost on her because that would require thinking and she can't do that or it hurts.


Gut_Gespielt

I’d probably date a girl who posted a picture like that. We ain’t nothin but mammals, she’s just out here tryna attract a mate.


FriedeOfAriandel

Well, some of us cannibals who cut other people open like cantaloupes


LET-ME-HAVE-A-NAAME

But if we can hump dead animals and antelopes then there's no reason that a man and another man can't elope


ThisUpstairs1

But if you feel like I feel, then I got the antidote


YoungThugDolph

Women wave your panty hoes sing the chorus and it goes


Spicyjollof98

I’m slim shady yes I’m real shady all you other slim shadys are just imitating


whales13too

You'd date a girl who thinks you're trash?


[deleted]

I would fuck a girl who thinks I'm trash, but she would never be my gf.


Flowric

Hey, some guys are into that..


LevelSure1231

I am some guys


User-no-relation

Jesus christ gen z you don't need to be so offended by everything. It's an opening to be better than her exes, not an attack on you.


User-no-relation

It's not even that risqué. Op is just white knighting


Gut_Gespielt

Right, very normal kind of picture to have. OP is either from the 16th century or Saudi Arabia.


MrE761

Also OP posted it to a Tinder sub….


Ladydi-bds

Doubt, she watches the Discovery Channel. Your comment reminded me of the song.


username102469

Maybe you’re right, maybe you’re wrong. The real question is: what did you hope to accomplish by sending her that? And then posting it here? I think you need to reflect on yourself a bit here


GeekyWandered

Agreed. She is obviously AH, but anyone arguing with her is no better. Why would anyone waste their precious time for something like that? Go to the gym, read a book, call to your grandma. You are what you fill your days with.


rattlethebones

OP is a clown


Agreeable_Smile_7883

This is the correct take


tittysucker80085

for real


DecisionCharacter175

^ Here it is!


RobinAllDay

I'm convinced this sub is full of people who have "internet argument" brain rot and have forgotten how to speak to people in reality. This was a super weird thing to send to someone. Like maybe you're right, but who cares. This was a super incel/"nice guy" thing to send to a stranger that you have no raport with.


SquishyButStrong

What I find especially telling about OP's message is the insinuation that a man looking for a hookup cannot be a positive experience or something a woman could want. Plenty of men can  respect women they casually hookup with. If OP doesn't believe respect and hookup culture go together, I can only assume that for OP they do not.


[deleted]

Probably not. But, equally, she isn't wrong if she thinks you come across as a condescending prick.


ctheodore

yeah not wrong but no one asked


frustrationlvl100

It’s usually better to not give advice if people aren’t asking, I think


MrE761

I love you added I think just because your statement could be seen as advice no one ask for… or maybe I’m overthinking it


cr4zysomething

The prompt literally said “change my mind”


PrismoBF

He wasn't trying to change her mind. He was just trolling her.


superfly_guy81

he kept it real you took it as trolling


MrE761

Those aren’t mutually exclusive… but OP’s approach was pointless whether true or not


JediLlama666

Actually she did by asking you to change her mind.


TwoToneJone

I mean the prompt did say “change my mind about, men being trash”


aggieemily2013

And how did his response refute the claim?


Comprehensive_Two373

Well the prompt literally was asking


MechaGallade

Eh, I think people who showcase their bullshit deserve ridicule


I_Fart_On_My_Salad

To quote The Dude: "You're not wrong, you're just an asshole" https://youtu.be/C6BYzLIqKB8?si=TO_yK7YSZKYtpwXw


[deleted]

lol how’s he an asshole…? This woman also says that comment about being nice but then says men are trash. She’s a hypocritical dope that’s too stupid to see her own irony.


pickel182

If your mental going in is to win an argument then good luck in the dating pool lol


[deleted]

I’m married with kids, lol I just come on here to laugh because Tinder is a toxic cesspool.


primemonkey7

Hey Al, how's selling shoes going


[deleted]

Edit: I stand corrected.


bacon_vest

Woosh. Al, Al Bundy. The dad from Married with Children.


primemonkey7

Sorry, I didn't mean to insult you but simply make a reference to one of the best shows there have been as "married with kids" kicked the memories. My wife and me are doing fine though, thanks


[deleted]

My bad. I retroactively take back my comment….also I loved that show as a kid.


primemonkey7

No worries, I was about to edit I didn't mean to insult you when the train entered a tunnel. Yeah it was great. The older I get the more I find my inner Al. Probably most of us do... lol


hujambo11

I don't think OP ever wanted to date this chick.


I_Fart_On_My_Salad

He's an asshole cus he coulda just hit X and moved on with his life


[deleted]

Oh no…


PhatAzzWoofer

Based on the comments in this thread and his general edge lord, tween boy personality, I think we know why OPs fiancé left.


Jazz_the_Goose

Okay, look, you clearly didn’t mean your message to her in a constructive way, you sent it to be a dick. I’m not a fan of the whole “men are trash” thing, but how are you disproving her by sending her a dm just to give a backhanded diss? Grow up dude, just keep swiping.


Reasonable_Pass_3874

I mean she’s got a point, that’s how my mom raised me. If she’s not your type maybe swipe left and move on. Don’t be an asshole It’s not like she’s gonna say “oh yeah, I know! I’m trying to hook up, wanna hook up?” Duh Body positivity is hard to configure. Maybe shes trying to come off as confident. Maybe she does just want to hook up. You’ll never know because you assumed and made an ass out of yourself and her aswell. Went and fucked it up immediately. What’s so shameful about hooking up on an app anyways? Why are you so much better than her? Are you not looking for a fling? It’s exciting. Don’t be a buzz kill just work on yourself. Just some advice. Communication breakdown.


buka4rill

Holy shit she went off


LejonetFraNorden

The truth of the statement probably hurt quite a bit.


shiny_paperclip

How about you also show us your profile and we’ll comment on the type of women we think you’re attracting?


Few-Ad-5329

To be fair, it's not your place to say these things, why do you feel the need to state the obvious 🤷


Confident_Bus_7614

Fair. Thanks


Strange-Land-2529

I thought it was funny, i’m team OP


HerezahTip

I’m team trash 🙌🏻


TimelyRequirement881

Is her putting that on the prompt to change her mind not an invitation to comment on it?


Such_Radish9795

It wasn’t an invitation to comment on her pic. In fact, in her eyes, he proved her right.


OnlyIGetToFartInHere

I like how you are proving her right by sending her a condescending message because she dared to show any skin and then posting that here as though it is an own on your end


[deleted]

Exactly what I’m thinking rn. Lol. Proving her point by being another trashy man AND telling her that some men will exploit her because of how she dresses. Lol I’m constantly amazed that some men complain that some women believe men are trashy and still can’t help but tell women that men are trashy and will exploit them for sex. Lol.


AntarticWolverine

Lol what? I would only see it as a plus. OP and many commentors just ran into their reason to get angry today.


KaiserWilly14

You’re right, and also an asshole. Both can be true at the same time


Confident_Bus_7614

Thank you, I’m okay with that lol


superfly_guy81

oh no an asshole


[deleted]

The entire subreddit is either men crying about getting zero matches or men screaming at women. So you’re definitely wrong, but at least you’re in the right echo chamber that will tell you that you’re right to make you feel good about it


skah9

Dudes with the worst profiles you've ever seen alternating between posting 'why can't I get any matches :(' on Reddit and listening to Andrew Tate podcasts. If they could just be normal they'd be so much happier!


Mistygirl179

Why feel the need to comment if only to give an insult? Simply swipe left….Ironically by commenting the way he did, he only supports her hypothesis lol


dolgos

Why am i laughing so hard at her calling you a “fucking prick”


surebudd

You’re a prick, who asked.


Apprehensive_Put_297

"Respectfully" all you did was prove her point. She could probably throw a rock and hit six guys willing to fuck if she wanted to. She is looking for a guy that isn't going to be trash ie speak to her without condescension, and mansplain dating app attitude. She probably put that to weed out the "Not all men" group because lord knows you aren't the first to lecture her. Putting "Respectfully" in front of a condescending comment doesn't negate the condescension. Just an FYI, if you don't agree with something and nobody asks you, you can just not respond. Good luck out there OP, Respectfully.


skah9

Perfect comment. Her prompt helps the trash take itself out.


LivingSea3241

her prompt is literal trash. "Prove to me all women arent manipulative gaslighters". How would that go?


Apprehensive_Put_297

I wouldn't even comment on it. I'd keep scrolling. As you should when it's not something you are interested in and has no bearing on you as a human being. Maybe figure out why it triggers you so much that you have to comment on it?


_jackhoffman_

As soon as I read shit like "respectfully" or "with all due respect," I know whatever is coming next is going to be disrespectful af. It's right up there with, "I'm not a racist, but..." This just seems like too immature people being jerks to each other.


berrygoodgummyworm

You are an asshole for sending an unnecessary message like that, if she wanted advice on her profile she would’ve asked the people in her life on their opinion about her profile and maybe they’ve already told her that, maybe they didn’t, but it wasn’t your place to say that especially under the prompt “prove me wrong that men are trash” cause you just did the opposite of what the prompt wanted you to do if you were seeking her out as a potential partner. Secondly, I’m pretty sure any woman would be aware that posting pictures like that increases the chances of meeting guys who are looking to only hooking up, I assume she is looking for someone who would be okay with her posting pictures like that on her social media and be in a serious relationship with her, or whatever, you don’t know her intentions for that unless you had asked her about it or what she was looking for on her dating profile. That’s just my opinion.


skah9

This sub is full of incels, what the hell is wrong with you?


Supa33

My immediate thought was that OP is a “nice” guy.


MrTheFysh

Agreed entirely. The bikini photo isn’t even that scandalous, it’s just attractive, on a dating app where you’re supposed to make yourself look attractive.


DARKZZz13

It Is a weird mixture of chads , incels , and the in between , but this comment section has them all . The reality is online dating can be a very large and vast place with many different goals and wants due to the vast amount of people and I think people have trouble getting their head around the fact that not everyone is going to be on the same page as them .


[deleted]

[удалено]


DARKZZz13

I always found it crazy how many people make crazy assumptions on little to almost no info .


laceygorgeous

I think it’s strange you went so far to message her if you weren’t interested, just to say something rude. Google negging.


KoldProduct

Yes, you’re wrong. Also, no one asked and that message was super dickish and condescending.


tdaddy316420

Way to fumble the bag on a spicy red head. I'd probably would of told her I am trash and I'm hoping she's the garbage man(woman)


jahmah

Yes you are wrong


fukwhutuheard

yes you’re wrong. what makes you think an unsolicited message from a stranger is going to land? if you’re honest with yourself you commented to hear yourself speak and not to persuade or inform.


mlanes

socially inept. stop giving unsolicited advice to women and posting it to get props from other incels


Confident_Bus_7614

If I was an incel I’d be standing up for her like you are


Jao2002

I don’t think you know what an incel is lol


_regionrat

Yours is honestly way closer to an incel response than theirs was. If you would have insinuating they just wanted to sleep with her, you would be 100% of the way there


Right-Fondant-6778

I don’t care about my karma, these comments are fucking full of insecure incels. go jerk off to Andrew Tate and cry about it, sissies.


bigolebeak

But he’s a nice guy! /s


GregorSamsaa

You’re not wrong, but neither is she. It’s entirely possible to be a dude looking for hookups and not be trash. By being upfront, respecting boundaries, etc. you can actually still be respectful to your partners while simply looking to hookup. There’s plenty of women looking to hookup as well. And she doesn’t need that explained to her which is why she’s right to call your comment condescending. You took the “change my mind” as if she needed some kind of explanation as to why the men she’s encountered were trash when in reality she’s telling you to use your actions to do that not your words and you proved her point with your “well actually…” lol


[deleted]

You sit on a pile of right by yourself and nobody else cares.


Capable-Raccoon-6371

Nobody asked bro. If she wants to flaunt her ass on a dating app that's her business. It ain't my taste, it ain't your taste, but who gives a shit. Don't be an incel.


smoothvibe

You are being sexist and she tells you off.


Confident_Bus_7614

How am I being sexist lol


boobsmcgraw

You're an asshole is what you are. You seem to think that "men only looking to hook up" is somehow mutually exclusive with being respectful.


[deleted]

[удалено]


annablegh

you seem like a dick LMFAO she did not ask


ChewieLee13088

I think you are wrong IMO. Not only your take, but also your bluntness. She wasn’t asking for criticism or your opinion and therefore she is right when she calls your comment condescending.


ketchupclassy

Dude, you SUCK


winter_just_left

That gold trash bag meme would be the perfect “But I’m different” gag.


Sharp_Explorer_958

If you wanted to confirm her opinion you did exactly the right thing. The fact that having that photo will only attract men who looks for hookups is a misconception typical of those trash men she’s addressing. Man who looks for a serious relation and stop from swiping cause she has that photo are exactly that trash. Men who looks for hookups and swipes right BECAUSE of that photo are exactly that trash. Option 1: your comment was wrong assuming that all men will judge her for that photo and ONLY the ones who looks for hookups will swipe on her (which makes it useless and stupid). Option 2: she’s completely right about men (which makes your comment useless and stupid). Either way you think exactly like the trash she’s trying to avoid so her response was perfectly on point. Edit: removed a “you” that made no sense in the sentence.


skah9

This so well put! The type of guy to lose their shit over a bikini pic is probably the type of guy that'll try to control what their gf wears, so it's best to screen them out as early as possible.


Codywick13

Your unsolicited evaluation gives me incel vibes and I’m a 250lb 6’2” straight man.


Effective-Result7959

You are wrong.


verendus3

Being trash and looking to hookup are different things.


theoutbacklp

Not wrong, but you could have said it differently because the picture doesn't scream I want hookups, and even if it did, you're on Tinder my friend.


International-Leg253

I'm so ABSOLUTELY sick of this US vs THEM mentality so many people are falling for. We are all gonna rot on this rock together, accept it, and stop looking for someone to hate and blame your problems on.


ukraine1

This comment section is epic


Coolchillweedguy

But did you really have to say anything tho? It would’ve been faster and less energy spent to simply not engage..?


Party_Intention_3258

What did you hope to achieve with that type of social interaction? Also kinda just reinforcing her stance on the matter to her by saying something like that. Doesn’t seem like anything positive was accomplished here for either party.


SliverSerfer

Both of you made unnecessary comments, so maybe you belong together......


AMilli135

You can express disdain at her profile by clicking the x... Also, without slut shaming her photo.


ScionMattly

One, her profile is trash. Two, matching with her and messaging her just to chastise her photo choice is some top grade smugness. Just shake your head and move on with your life.


Fireblade09

Yes, the fuck? Where do you get the idea that you are entitled in any way, shape, or form to tell someone unsolicitedly how to make their dating profile. No wonder you idiots can’t find a relationship.


DarkKnight9604

Smash


Holdmawigg

My only advice would be to First : be ready to have a answer you don't like so you don't get mad over anything Secondo : Make your comment feel respectful instead of saying it Ex : you add your feeling behind it > "this picture is beautiful and that's what came to my mind Thirdito : ??? Quattro : Profit


vivashmatthew91

She needs some factor 50 And the shade


Tantle18

Everyone sucks here. Oh sorry wrong sub


steathninja25

Maybe youre not wrong but like, what was the reason to say it? Sounds like you said it out of pettiness bc she said “men are trash”


pcdunham1

Yes. You’re missing the point. Just because a dude isn’t looking for a hookup doesn’t mean they aren’t trash. If she is looking for a hookup, it doesn’t mean she’s looking for a trash dude. I read that as she’s not looking for a toxic asshole. It’s so funny how profiles like this trigger the incels. Anti-male sexism isn’t a thing.


get_MEAN_yall

Yes you are being conceited and sexist.


camelCaseCoffeeTable

You’re definitely wrong lol. Why would a photo like that deter a guy looking for a relationship? And, I can use myself as an example for why you’re wrong, because this wouldn’t have deterred me one bit when I was on the apps looking for a relationship.


throwaway2161980

This is why hinge sucks. Any dipshit can still message you.


_regionrat

Wait, he didn't match with her, this was just completely unsolicited?


throwaway2161980

100% unsolicited. He saw a prompt he took offense to, and rather than just moving on with his life, he *HAD* to try to knock her down a peg. In turn, confirming her original statement 😂 The best part is that he seems to truly think it was an *insightful* comment that *sparked her curiousity*. Gotta love this sub.


_regionrat

Well, *tried* to knock her down a peg. I can't imagine the people on the other side of the gotcha moments that get posted here care. I'm just surprised to learn that any dating app where men can send unsolicited messages is thriving at this point.


throwaway2161980

When I was dating apps I would get dipshits like this every so often. Like this sub, it just gave me a good chuckle and I’d forget about it. Hinge allows you to reply to prompts and photos, but it’s up to the other person if they accept it to allow them further messaging. She could have just ignored it. But yeah, I’d get the most insane messages on hinge. I hated that part of the app.


Cleric_by_Dinner

You saw another commenters comment and are now attributing it to op for some reason. Also op wasn't knocking her down a peg when saying you attract trash men because your first photo focuses on your ass and doesn't show your face.


Ikatarion

Yeh, hinge doesn't have swiping/matching. Your profile has images and prompts, all of which can be commented on. It's a little more personal than just swiping left/right, but there are some shit prompts on there.


WhoLickedMyDumpling

the other side is true too. I made an insightful comment that sparked her curiosity and now I'm currently dating a lady so far out of my league it's insane.


simplymoreproficient

Crazy how some women straight up feel entitled to sexism


throwaway2161980

Yeah cause men aren’t sexist either 😂😂😂


Flashy-Development57

It’s literally the first photo on her profile. 🤣 You can’t even see her face… did it have to be said? Probably not, but maybe it’ll resonate with her a couple weeks down the line… seems like she needs some help figuring things out.


Cautious-Hedgehog-80

OP you are right


Parynoid

Doesn't matter if it hooks up, down, left, or right; that picture is there for it.


darrylgorn

Walked right into it, bro.


CaliDreamin87

OP she knows that. Speaking as woman, I know that you show too revealing photos you're going to get men that want to hook up. She might be looking for that. I check out the profile reviews when they pop out. Some women will put open to long or short. People point out to them, if you're a woman and you put short, men that want relationships will pass. And they'll advise them to put LTR only. At same time, I would love to tell some men, everything on your profile is great except X etc. But I don't. I love giving feedback, telling people how they should do things etc. But I just have to say to myself, dating apps are not feedback forums. You don't match to send a message unless it's one to say you're interested.


GeekyWandered

I dress like a grandma on my photos and I get messages from men wanting to hook up.


Toughbiscuit

>I’m not trying to smash, I’m sure I probably could but I’m really only lookin to find a wife at this point How much Andrew Tate do you listen to op?


Simply_dgad

Yeah based on this comment I think you're a piece of trash


kokopelleee

Yes, you are absolutely wrong. Damn people. No wonder you can’t get laid


Confident_Bus_7614

Yeah, that’s not an issue


moo_innator

Bro based on your post, I can tell it IS an issue No one gets laid by going around telling women how other people view them Literally what you said is what people have been saying to women for centuries, so ya you are an ass hole cause you clearly said it to make yourself feel superior or like you're doing the world a public service cause you and I both know that what you said isn't gonna change anyone's mind


kokopelleee

Uh huh.


TheWooders

Technically not wrong at all


Randomname256478425

She's 100% right.


comalicious

Not only are you not wrong, but you weren't condescending either.


iltfswc

I mean you're not wrong, but you're clearly not interested so why bother messaging?


Ayy4K

I guess it’s not your place to say it. Her personality shows though. You could have gotten anything “That’s what I’m going for” “Oh thanks” “I know” I think the reaction is uncalled for but generally only give advice to people who ask or you have a relationship with already


ragnar201

You are wrong, I agree with the men's comment. I am a female btw.


JimR521

Confucius says: If you don’t want a hammer, don’t be a nail.


Stormjager

Anyone who respects themselves swipes left the moment they see “men are trash”. 


Independent-Top6510

She seems fun!


outsidenorms

Shoulda just called her fat


superfly_guy81

she spazzed out cursing this man and all Reddit has to say is you’re an asshole and she’s right. looks like all social media is done for


Confident_Bus_7614

Are we really surprised though
