No male actually believes that women have it easy. They are trying to antagonize you and they take pleasure every time it works. Like a cat plays with its prey before killing it, men bait women and then watch the self-destruction. The only differences that matter between cat-mouse, human-male-female dynamics are that males intentionally cause suffering, the suffering lasts longer for the prey (women), and the prey (women) play into it and unintentionally make it worse for themselves. If you just ignore what they say, they will eventually wander away bonerless looking for an easier target, and you can focus on something more productive. Like planning your cold, emotionally detached destruction of men ;)
