Always appears to me as a match / clash situation ...for which I’ve long wondered the same. Though, given ample opportunity to bash men, I’ve found ‘our women’ more insightful than aggressive. It’s appreciated, and perhaps reflects the mindset of those posting on ‘a dating site.’

Strange though, when I’m dogged around here, it’s generally by guys … with personal attacks or putdowns..

But an earlier post today seemed to confirm my general assumption regarding women. She’s advocating ‘reading a book.’ Then what? I’ve known a lot of women (beginning as girls) ‘book readers.’ It reminds me of voyeurism; privately learn the inner workings of name-the-subject ..then keep it to yourself … out of fear that ‘acting on it’ may be dangerous.

Again, around here is different ...but not all that much.. The women tend to be far more tolerant of aggression and dominance than men. Perhaps that simply reflects biology, we being the opposite side of the same coin ~

The wonderful women here fit no standard nitch they are free thinkers all

I must have a masculine brain then by your reckoning! I don’t think you are correct in any case, because any rational thinker can separate the subject matter from the poster....this applies equally to both genders. What is needed to have a successful relationship is dialogue, more marriages break up through lack of communication between the two parties, than for any other reason. Never assume to know what the other needs or thinks, and let them know your own desires too. Airing a difference instead of letting it turn into festering resentment is better, for both your relationship and your health and well-being.

We don't. The divorce rate is a pretty good indicator. Add to that the number of people in marriages they wish they were not in but stay for a number of reasons like religion, finances, fear of starting over...and this doesn't include folks who live together and it doesn't work out. We are not good at being together at all. It can be done, but it is rare.

Not really you can go after brain dead princesses not me

Then why do so many men just look at my photos without reading my profile?

"Men are visual," guys say as an excuse.

In graduate school, we had a professor who dressed in clashing stripes, checks and plaids. During class, he often took out notes and read.

Some male students rudely walked out, slamming the door. Instead, I listened to the brilliant things the professor said.

I was so impressed with this professor's depth of knowledge, I asked him to be my thesis advisor. He was great.

There is no difference in brains or for the most part. Men's brains tend to be slightly bigger. Its a feature of larger skulls and has nothing to do with intellect. There are biological differences and it is probably the hormonal differences that make some differences in behaviour. One thing that surprised me. A picture of a small baby/kitten/puppy creates some hormonal responses for girls, which is akin to empathy, not young men...until the young men have children or bond with an animal. Now many trans people have the same hormonal changes of their identified gender, suggesting biological cause for a person being born trans. It also suggests bonding with pets is good for boys.
My training would lead me to hone in and personalise comments from people I wildly disagree with. We know it is harder to be aggressive with someone who has used your first name. (You will see police officers do this in hostage situations).
Generally, I pefer to discuss the topic in hand. So not sure...
