No, you're right. I know there are lots of terrible, awful men (and, for that matter, women) out there. It's just that rarely do I see such a consolidation of passive-aggressiveness, manipulation, control issues, and misogyny in one place. It's the sheer intensity of it that blows my mind. I could easily see many guys (including guys I know) pulling maybe one or two or even three of those things, but the fact that one human being came up with all ten? Kills me.

Any woman who needs a boyfriend so badly she would put up with any of those things needs to maybe not be in a relationship until she gets her own head in order. Well, you're right on the one hand. But I know a lot of women who have been so broken down by society that they really believe they deserve all this. That's what makes me the saddest.
