When men try to make me feel special by saying I’m not like other girls it makes me feel not only less than a woman but less than me. I feel like it takes some of my identity and rips it out of my chest

A lot of the time when they say "you're not like other girls" they're trying to make you feel special and isolate you from your other women. It turns out it just sounds weird anyway like an insult towards women in general

Yeah no that’s not a compliment. Women are awesome! I want to be like Marie Curie, the only person in the entire history of the Earth to get two Nobel Prizes in two separate fields of science, despite being denied university at first for bigotry reasons. I want to be like my friends, who are amazing.

Wait but you aren’t though, you’re not like men or anyone else either. You are uniquely you to your core

Toughen up dude. Men go through much worse than “all these guys are into me and want to make me feel special and it’s not enough so I’m going to complain”

Ok, the traits that make you unique are what a guy means when he says that.

It doesn’t mean we dislike other girls, it just means we like you specifically

maybe, but there’s better ways to say it that don’t implicitly put other women down🤷‍♀️ and it’s also not a great compliment, why not name something specific that u like abt the woman ur talking to?

Translation: “I spend every day wishing someone would compliment me, but they don’t because I’m empathy-deficient, sour, and entitled. When I see men give women attention, I wish for a tiny fraction of that attention. I don’t care about the undertone of violence or the harassment. I want women’s standards to be as low as my own, and I don’t want to self reflect or grow as a person”
