[X&Y] Women Who Are Easily Offended
Published: Fri, 05/19/17

WHAT'S INSIDE: A bunch of us as guys tend to be extra careful
about offending a woman when we meet her and/or when we go out on a
date with her. Here's the reason why you can stop worrying about that.

HERE'S THAT SHORTCUT YOU'VE BEEN ASKING ABOUT
Even though you're a busy man, you'll settle for nothing
short of complete excellence with women...in every way...
and at every level.
That's why I hand-selected each audio in 10From10: The
Game Changers just for you.
Each one was picked based on feedback from guys just like
you about which of my audios have quite literally
revolutionized their success with women.
Now it's your turn:
10From10: The Game Changers
Response to this right-sized (and right-priced) collection
has been tremendous.
Focus on what will get you results NOW. Cut to the chase
and get on with enjoying all the sexy, exciting new women
in your life:

True, bona fide shortcuts are few and far between in this
life. Take full advantage of these.

"OMG...I'm So OFFENDED By That"
It never fails, really.
Whenever I write to you guys with an assertive opinion--especially
on how masculinity and femininity work--I get an e-mail from at
least one woman somewhere who is absolutely appalled at me and
what I'm apparently about.
Maybe I'll post some of their feedback on the blog when I have some
spare time, because it's downright shocking.
But seriously, I would think it's fairly apparent from the cross-section
of causes I champion, truths I teach about and especially the type of
woman I have in my life that I generally have the best interests of
both genders--men AND women--at heart.
And indeed, both Emily and I are all about everyone winning at
dating. This isn't about "us vs. them" or any such gender-bashing
nonsense.
So there's really little doubt, generally speaking, that I'm a guy
who thinks very highly of women and who respects them.
Nevertheless, certain women will feel compelled to write me the
most scathing, insulting messages you can imagine at times.
Remember the newsletter about a week ago that asked if you can
win an argument with a woman? You guessed it...I got "hate
mail" from two different angry women who wanted to argue with
me about it.
I didn't answer either, of course, lest I defy my very own advice
on the subject.
But if I had, I would only need to have written, "Please actually
read the whole newsletter."
But they won't. They don't want to. They LIKE getting all worked
up over something. Anything.
Basically, I'm tantamount to Satan as they see it, and an example
in their minds of how "all men are no good". They go looking for
"trouble" and make sure they find it.
Often the problem they're so worked up about revolves around
their interpretation (or misinterpretation) of one phrase (or even
one word) in a newsletter they received from me that just freakin'
sets them off like a Roman candle.
Despite my wise habit of biting my tongue until it bleeds, you have
no idea how tempted I am to respond to such women with, "I know
why you're single."
I mean, good grief. People who get offended easily SUCK.
There I said it.
Now, predictably enough, watch me get "hate mail" from people
who are offended by that one too, upset because I think they suck.
But consider how true it is for a second. And it doesn't matter
doesn't matter what gender you are.
Hell, some people even get offended by having to pick a gender
these days.
If you feel like you've got to "walk on eggshells" around certain
people all the time lest they twist the next thing you say into
somehow being an affront against their very personhood, it isn't
going to be long before you stop hanging out with them.
And if you're unfortunate enough to find yourself actually dating
a woman like that, the floodgates to "gender wars" flaring up at any
convenient opportunity seem to get thrown wide open.
Obviously, the more easily the woman in your life is offended, the
more drama and other relational trouble you're going to have with
her.
But here's the truly crazy part.
Some of us as guys actually allow ourselves to get sucked in to
that brand of negativity, all the while feeling like we need to
apologize or even make up for having offended her, even when we
can't really figure out exactly what we did wrong.
That has more to do with our own male guilt than anything else,
causing us to continue believing that women are "goddesses" who
are infallible.
But meanwhile, the truth is you really do have the power to
change how you deal with a woman who gets offended by
anything and everything she can conveniently shake her fist at.
Now let me be perfectly clear here.
If she, or you, or anyone else feels personally insulted by relatively
minor things--even things that are more general in nature than aimed
squarely at you--it's not like y'all don't have the right to feel that way.
It's just that anyone like that SUCKS to be around.
So as long as one exercises one's right to be offended, others can
(and should) exercise their respective right to find friends who are more
easy-going.
I just heard someone say, "But I AM easy-going. How DARE you assume
I'm not! You know nothing about me!"
Yeah...sure. Have it your way. Just do so without me along for the
ride. Sheesh.
You know, though, even if you only get offended when someone levels
a very real insult toward you, your race, your gender, etc. you may
indeed have a much more VALID reason to be offended.
That's absolutely true.
But you STILL suck.
No thanks to today's "politically correct" post-modern world, more people
are more offended by sillier stuff (and more of it) than ever before.
After all, that's the defining point of "political correctness": It's not the
speaker's intent that matters anymore. It's how the listener perceives
what is said or done.
Thin-skinned, insecure people are kowtowed to in that context, and
therefore empowered in their weakness. This is a well-known
psychological pattern, and it's now taken over our culture.
And unfortunately, I'm sorry to say, it therefore follows logically that
more people SUCK than ever before.
Simply put, the more easy-going you are--no matter what--the more fun
you're going to be to hang around.
AND...as a man, the LESS you tolerate women who are easily
offended--let alone carry the blame for them--the more you're going
to enjoy your dating life.
So definitely take it easy yourself. Laugh a little. Don't be quite so
concerned about someone "stereotyping" you, "disrespecting" you or
whatever.
Save that energy for when the chips are really down, which is
almost never.
That is to say, be careful to defend against being offended.
What's more, find a woman who matches up with you in that regard.
Both are decidedly better for your long-term health. Deserve what
you want.
