That’s an interesting perspective too. That you and so many men would see these comments as revenge.

Part of the superiority complex of men is that you don’t listen to women. Or, at best, you listen and then dismiss.

The result of that dynamic is that more often than not, you have to experience for yourselves a dose of what you dish out in order for you to understand what the marginalized are talking about.

Otherwise, trying to have an conversation with most men about their behavior is an exercise in frustration and, more often than not, futility. Not until you see some real consequences of it hurting you too.

Because you’re all so superior.

Ergo, when women say this it’s not usually about wanting revenge. It’s about the frustration of being dismissed and ignored. And hoping that now, finally, one of you will start to get it.
