People are talking to people in real life less and less these day. The people they do talk to tend to be of the same gender, this was a thing before the Internet but the Internet has made it worse. Combine that with algorithms where the first thing they learn about you is your gender and will feed you content accordingly, peoples view of the opposite gender becomes more and more distorted. So the terminally online people, that also make a lot of the content on the Internet, tend to become misogynist or misandrist.
they don't have to be terminally online. i overhear shit like this all the time irl. and encounter these attitudes all the time from women while dating in a liberal progressive city.
shitty people project their shit onto everyone. this is all this is. a shitty person mocking and deriding someone for being different than them or not living up to their bizarre and often hypocritical expectations of the opposite sex.
i go on so many dates where the woman basically just lays out what she is looking for in a relationship, and it's they often take this condescending tone where they think men are inferior beings that have to 'prove' themselves... instead of regarding you as a fellow human being.
