Majority probably men doing to women & men (Especially young boys)

Minority of women do it to men (I am yet to hear stories of women doing it to women yet)

So yes it's not a man hating thing. Also, cheating is not harassment. That's a relationship issue. Sleeping with many consensual adults does not make anyone trash- man or woman.

Regarding all men being trash...I do not say trash but most lack self-control when it comes to alcohol or women. They blame alcohol or drugs if they misbehave. My reasons are:

#1 I have seen many women who can stay without a man for months or years while men can't. If men do stay without women, some turn into animals when they don't get them or ask to compromise if they aren't in a relationship. I am not even talking about cheating as that's totally different.


#2 Men immediately get attracted when a woman wears short skirts or even sleeveless dresses or just by looking at a pretty face. Women mostly don't even if a man wears minimal clothes.

#3. Men judge a woman based on her habits and boy friends and even if she works late night. If women drink and have a lot of male friends, it directly means she can have an affair with anyone. Women mostly don't assume such things.

#4. Men don't get the meaning of a NO and feel the women is just playing hard. They assume a smile or a woman being polite means she agrees to it. Women also may cross their limit but men being physically strong can strongly oppose them.

#5. Men stalk more often compared to women and get aggressive when the women refuses his proposal and we see Acid attacks as a result of this.

So no, the women calling men trash and not those who are cheated by their boy friend but because they have faced too many issues with men. A woman in India can't walk on a street wearing a dress or even sleeveless tops without 5-10 men staring at her.

It happens with men too but there's no excuse to saying "Hence some men don't believe you". Many fake cases have been reported and nobody is guilty till they are proved so. No point of blindly supporting one side without seeing any proof. This movement has brought many to light many incidents that are true as well and the accused have been proven guilty.



You can't be more sexist when you say men lack self control. What do you have to say about those women who r married and cheating.. or those who sleep around with men because they have money.. or star power or have position? we are all human beings.. Just to say men have low self control is plain short sided and sexist. for your information, women lose control too when they see drugs and alcohol.. apparently you haven't met one!! smh

1) In some countries that are conservative.. .. men stay single till their 20s and thirties.. compare their rape stats to other countries.. and that blows your theory of men can't live without sex. It's like women are angels and don't need sex.. again.. very immature and sexist comment

2) women don't go gaga over men at all.. I mean have you ever been around celebrities and how women act around them? hell have you ever been around women when they have an attractive friend or cowrker. how they treat their attractive coworker.. friends or when they see a good looking guy. To say just men do that, Its again far from truth..

3) This is more an Indian and subcontinent thing. I am going to say Indian men not equal all men. When you say all men are trash.. you are just covering the main issue under all men are trash instead of looking at the shortcomings of your culture and the society you live in. if indian men are judgmental.. that doesn't make all men judgmental. same goes with afghan, Pakistani, Arab.. or any other country. yeah women can have affair with any men. some women just want to f**k.. they don't want anything serious.. they want to have fun.. its natural.. just like men do it.. Who cares.

4) That's more a culture thing again. As a woman you are encouraged to be shy, introverted, don't just give in.. make him work for it.. say no and no and no.. smile.. and say I don't know instead of yes.. Its a culture thing.. Not a men issue.. yeah.. there are assholes.. who just take it way too far.. but even as a men.. they are thought to be dominant and take charge.. Men get away with most things.. because they r men.. I have always been against that.. But again its a culture thing.. its not a men thing

5) women stalk too and they are far worse when it comes to spreading rumors and talking shit. They tend to remember things and small details and that makes them far more dangerous than men when it comes to stalking.. That's the reason I stop bringing women to my house for a long time.. until we were official


The whole women can't walk in the street is more indian and subcontinent issue than men issue. If your society teach men how to treat women.. if there are laws where they punish men severely for rape... and even any other bothersome behaviors.. maybe some day women can walk in the streets freely.. again all men are not equal indian men..

Here is what bothers me with this whole men are trash.. It closes your mind and make you not want to form a relationship with any men

You already believe that men lack self control, they can't keep it in their pants, they can't be around other women, they are judgmental, they don't take no for answer and they are stalker pyschos.. You come to a relationship with all of the preconceived notions. How would you form a relationship with a man when your mind is already made up about them.

most victims of sexual assault including me, we take the world for what its.. not for what happened and mourn about it. When you call men trash... you refuse to move on. you live in the past.. you refuse to form a relationship based on your preconceived notions.. and that shouldn't be the purpose of this movement. The goal should be for you to tell your story and get closure and move on to better and greater things in life..

Men are trash... and sentiments like that works against what the goal should be at every level!!

Except for Kangana none of the other stories seem to be about a consensual relationship story going sour. They are real harassment stories and need to be taken in to account. Also again this is notjust aboutwomen.Meng get sexually harassed too andshould sharetheirstories.
I think people in India have taken this movement in the wrong sense especially men

I was appalled to read the comments and reactions on the cricketer Malingas accusations by a a woman.

I have read men coming out for their own me too. So , I find your words false.

Just as a side mention, why is Everytime some injustice against women mentioned, guys are the first to comment about inclusion? Is it very difficult to get the fact that while a many men might have been victim, majority of the victim however are women?

Clearly you can't read. I am saying blaming all men and sentiments like all men are trash does the opposite of what you are trying to achieve with this movement.

You are bringing the bitterness and failures of ur relationships when the goal should be to tell your story and get closure and move on to greater things in life!!!

I am not a sexist although my post may seem negative about men in general but the facts that I stated are after observing their general attitude. I know women are nothing less but still they are the weaker gender in terms of physical strength. I have known some males who are quite decent and helpful too but the point is such men are few compared to thousands who act and behave indecent. When I was travelling in a bus and one man was trying to behave inappropriately, it was another boy who protected me while the women in the bus kept silent. So, women are nothing great but still I feel better around women colleagues than around men. And I am only referring to Indian men as I haven't met men of all countries and can't judge them based on the few who I have met. Forget women being angels, humans are neither. I prefer animals.


How would you form a relationship with a man when your mind is already made up about them.

This is more like a personal comment on me as I haven't commented on you yet but still I would like to answer that I have met men who are the kind and polite and have protected me at times in my college. Rest, no comments.

No one is stopping men to share their metoo stories.
MeToo is for everyone. Everyone should get support.

But 95% of the cases are regarding women and children harassment. Thats why. And this is just celebs, Normal people, have not even started complaining yet. If they start, the police will not be able to handle that many cases.

And whenever women raise their voice, men suddenly unite and speak against them.. why this fear?
Esp see the youtube and Insta comments on the MeToo stories.
