I post there a lot. I'm sure there are some, but the great majority of posters do not seem to be pickme. I read the conversation and I can see it from both views. Part of their response came off as not wanting you to just blame white men as a problem but all men as a problem. And I agree. All men suck not just white men.

But then part of their response was in pickme territory because they started talking about white countries, and what they really meant were white men, treating women better. They feel a need to defend white men because they feel like if you insult white men then you are insulting all white people. I usually see similar things in the black community. If a black man gets mistreated, black women feel personally attacked. These women are so male-identified; it's sad.

Oh and this was funny: "Let me guess.... you met a new scrote?" Hahaha I choked laughing. We have to stay on code. Women gotta stop seeing men as innocent just because they going to bed with them.

You have such a thoughtful approach her, but your description does sound very pickme. Help me understand your distinction Because you are spot on otherwise.

My distinction? I don't know. Their responses seem to contradict. In the end, the OP probably got Not All Men'd, but it went a little something like "Not all men. Our good white men over in the UK... something, something better than brown people in the Middle East... something, something." I think if they had just stuck to saying that not just white men do certain things they probably wouldn't have been fighting and talking past each other. But the capes came on because OP called white men the worst.

Ok thank you. That makes absolute sense. Thanks for taking the time. It’s like they got stuck in some quicksand and couldn’t get out if it
