    I don’t hate myself.

    I hate that enough men out there are such amazing assholes that it has created a generational issue which understandably has led to the assumption that as a man I’m probably an asshole too.

    I hate that women understandably see me in public and make assumptions about my risk factor to them because victimizing women is way too common place.

    Me, however, I’m pretty ok with.

      Unless you are an asshole, why would you say that you are asshole, if you aren’t sure you can ask. Statements like ‘I don’t hate myself, but actually I think that I’m an asshole because someone else is’ are somewhat conflicting.

        You can go ahead and cite your source for me saying I’m an asshole. I’ll wait.

          as a man I’m probably an asshole too

          Are you going to try to weasel out of your own words by saing that probably here means that you aren’t actually an asshole and you don’t believe you are?

            Cherry picking out parts to remove context is a pretty lame way to “win” an argument bro.

            Here’s that segment which doesn’t intentionally remove relevant context:

            … which understandably has led to the assumption that as a man I’m probably an asshole too.

            Which is—fairly clearly—saying that I understand why others might make an assumption about me.

              So you assume that other people think that you are an asshole doesn’t actually mean that you think that you are an asshole? It isn’t cherry-picking when discussion started with you generalizing about “men” being not_good by default. There is little that is understandable about such a position, have you tried not to have negative assumptions about yourself and other people that you don’t know?

            You’ve cherry-picked that out of context, they were clearly trying to say “other people assume that all men are probably assholes, therefore they assume that that I’m probably an asshole”
