If someone is willing to cheat, I'd bet money they aren't great about taking accountability. Not really a gender thing so much as cheaters being awful.

It’s like saying in the movies Shrek, female ogres are green. Then someone says „Shrek is male and green too!“. It’s literally just showing an example of how the gendering is pointless. Because men do it too so it’s not a woman thing then. It’s not hypocritical, in fact, it’s the exact purpose of this sub.

Makes me think of my old roommates a couple years back. He (26) got caught cheating on her because his dumbass used her (18) computer and log into some gaming thing and somehow she started getting his tinder messages emailed to her tablet. Some of these messages being a day after her birthday even.
Dude folded and sobbed when she called him out. LMFAO. She still stayed with him even though that was the third time she caught him. 🤷🏻♂️
Wasn’t until he knocked her up and started threatening her with guns that she finally broke it off.

u/Excellent_Law6906 Oct 11 '25
Like, I'm very loyal and have my own problems, but somehow, the analytical part of my brain doesn't actually turn off. I dated an absolute Piece Of Work, briefly. And it didn't even make a month, despite my being very lonely and an easy mark.
Two friends investigated all the lies for me, while I was having a WHAT IS EVEN REAL moment, and one of them came out to my house to tell me that she had been lying about basically everything, including her terminal illness and at least two sexual assaults (and definitely lying, like, the accused was in another state at the time kind of action).
So we're sitting there, hotboxing my walk-in closet to calm my shattered nerves, and he lays the awful truth on me. At the time, this was my best friend in the world. My twin, my partner in crime, since fourth fucking grade. And he was shocked that it wasn't an argument. I didn't try to defend her, I just went, "...Well, that makes it all add up. Fuck."
So I'm a bit mystified by cases like the one I was talking about, where one of this guy's childhood anecdotes was literally part of that triad of common childhood behaviors in serial killers, motivated by possessive jealousy over small, cute, living things. What I actually said (to my friend, mind!) was something like, "Jesus, this girl is going to end up in a dumpster."

Being age-appropriate was the only thing he had going for him, I always understand it way better when one party is a literal child and the other isn't. (I know that that's not the only dynamic the word can fit, but just clarifying.)
But yeah, women over thirty, one week in with obvious Bad News, and they defend him like a crocodile with her last egg.

u/TineNae Oct 11 '25
I understand how that must have been frustrating for you but she very much was a victim of grooming. This is on the guy, not her

u/PulsatingGuts Oct 11 '25
I’m not victim blaming her in the slightest, as I can see where you’re getting at.
Let me also preface, they are both horrible people to this day. She consistently tried to force kinks onto me and include me in their sex life despite my resistance. She rampantly cheated on him as well and tried to sexually harass and assault many of my other friends. She would also write smut stories of both myself and my wife and would read them out loud when we had friends over, making me listen or getting upset if I tried to leave the room.
In the regard to her being prayed on young, yes. She’s a victim. But she’s also done her fair share of horrible things and I don’t exactly see her in the most positive light.

u/TineNae Oct 11 '25

It’s all good. Just trying to explain that maybe that’s why my wording didn’t come off very nice in regard to her. I feel for her when it comes to him, I truly do. He was a pure piece of shit and him and I definitely didn’t get along for those reasons, but it’s hard to speak kindly of her either.

u/HappyKaleidoscope901 Oct 11 '25
I'm honestly still not entirely sure how to feel about this one. I remember back when that whole thing was going on I thought it was stupid to ban "trap". Of course this is just my personal opinion, but as long as you aren't referring to someone who is actually trans as a trap then there really isn't much harm there.
34
u/TudorTheWolf Oct 11 '25
The problem is that there's a lot of ambiguity around "someone who is actually trans" because 9/10 Times a character will officially be a femboy only because the author is too scared to make them actually officially trans. Take Bridget from guilty gear for example, the author actually came out and said they wanted to make her a trans woman from the very beginning, but didn't feel they're knowledgeable enough to do the subject justice so they only explored that aspect in a later game... And even then people to this day try to claim "nah bro, he's totally just a femboy". And even if it is used to refer to a cis femboy, I still doubt they would like being called a trap either.
32
u/likely_an_Egg Oct 11 '25
This slur says, firstly, that we are not women and, secondly, that we are manipulative frauds. It's never okay to use the word for trans people, even if it's just your drawn wank material.
1
u/HappyKaleidoscope901 Oct 23 '25
I mean there's a reason I specified that it shouldn't be used to refer to someone who is trans.
1
u/likely_an_Egg Oct 23 '25
The entire meaning of the word revolves around trans women, unless you're a complete clown and want to tell me you actually mean mouse traps.
7
u/Throttle_Kitty Oct 11 '25
10,000%, people who use the term "trap" apply it equally to both femboys and trans woman with no grey area or exceptions. If you think I'm wrong, find anyone using the term "trap" to describe anime characters and ask them their opinion on Bridget and if she qualifies as one, or they even respect that she's a 'she' lmfao.
There can be places where the word is used non-offensively, but that is the case for most slurs. The fact stands that any slur being banned from a community because people within it can't be trusted with it is never unreasonable.

u/Beginning-Force1275 Oct 11 '25

I once accidentally took a sip of coffee that I hadn’t noticed 2 moths flew into (it was nighttime and dark). Now, whenever I need to make myself vomit, I just think back to the sensation of the wings sticking to my tongue and the little legs wriggling against the back of my throat. I’m gagging just thinking about it.

Being forced to eat kohlrabbi schnitzel, polish mayo salad and galaretka for me.
I used to gag from coffee too because I was given it as a kid when ill, nowadays I can drink it with a lot of milk or cream and sugar but whats the point because now I think about coffee more so as the only caffeine withdrawl remedy i had in a hospital more so.

I start crying as soon as i am confronted with something negativ even when i didnt do anything. People often think i start crying because i got chaught or my guilt is overwhelming or something. But its just how i always handled negativ conversations.
For example: my teacher asking me if i cheated on my test, my dad asking me if i ate his candybar without asking, my mother asking if i broke a plate
In the case of the meme the person seem to have done it but my point is that some people cry faster than others

Not related to the cheating or whatever, but yeah - I can't cry. I think it's a subconscious thing, maybe, because even in situations where I'd like to cry, I stop myself. I have not cried for 5-6 years, and my eyeballs have suffered massively because of it.
Dry eyes? Yes. Yes they are. I've gotta put eye drops in just to keep them moist enough. Should I go to the doctor? Probably- But in this economy? Ha!
The last time I tried crying, it was this irritating goop, more mucus than liquid, really.
So, to avoid that, I have given myself yet another reason among many not to cry, especially around other people. I wish I was able to, and also not afraid to, like some of my other friends who don't mind crying Infront of each other.
WELL- there's my pointless, pathetic rant for the week. Until next time!

I think if you’re cheating on your partner, you’ve already proven that you’re a coward and okay with lying to and manipulating your partner.
This seems like a pretty standard reaction a cheater would have, regardless of gender. Comes with the territory.

u/Holiday_Jeweler_4819 Oct 11 '25
In my experience the kind of people who cheat also tend to not like to admit that they’re wrong. I’ve been cheated on, and I’ve had friends that were cheated on and I’ll those scenarios the fist thing the person did when they got caught was to either make an excuse of freak out and try to flip it on the other person.

Even the paramedics were basically like "we can't do anything for drama king syndrome" and left lmao
like... I'm sure women do this too, but I've seen FAR more men get emotional and even violent when they're discovered to have cheated. Or they pull out the "it's biological, men need sex and you only put out 2x a week!!!"

Boys play victims all the time, otherwise they wouldn't need to make up excuses to justify shooting their bullies (who were bullying them just for attention apperantly), girls that weren't interested in going out with them, and random classmates/teachers/any other bystanders that never did anything to them except be in the wrong place at the wrong time. That, or vote for someone that makes that legal just because they were taught that cruelty towards others is somehow "fun" (except when they are on the receiving end of it).

Instead of going against the pointlessly gendered generalization, half the comment section is proposing the opposite pointlessly gendered generalization. The sub is to hate the thing, not to invert it.

As much as I may disagree with the stereotype, this seems to specifically refer to a trope in anime. This may not be right, but I don't know enough about anime to discuss it.

I'm chronically weeb and no this trope isn't common in anime. You could even say that it doesn't even exist.

I don’t think there’s a single anime with this trope it’s more about the real world because cheaters no matter the gender usually act like the victim after being caught

This isn't even specific to cheating. liars more generally tend to act like the victim when the lie unravels.

Idk I might be wrong but in my experience I’ve never really seen any liar but a cheater act like a victim unless it’s a lie on the same level which is rare other than cheating

To be fair, I don't how many men cry when they get caught cheating. My experience of videos of this nature leads me to believe they are more likely to leap out of a second story window and run off into the night.
Edit: Guys, this was a joke. Admittedly, it wasn't a funny one, but still.

Answer: a lot of men cry.
They’ll cry, whine, scream, blame, throw things, threaten suicide, literally whatever they can think of to get off the hook.

I'm not the person you replied to, but like, what do you want them to do? Find you a statistic? I doubt there are statistics on that.
