in all fairness, these same alpha male-types do the same thing to men they perceive as non-threats. most of them have no problem pigeonholing men they deem weakly inferior into the same category as "useless slut." the best way to deal with them? emasculate them in every which way right from the beginning.

When I do those numbers, it seems being a woman is a very significant advantage in this case? 30% above average success rate?
