I saw a post that said men get like 2 compliments a year.
Men.
The ones who fucking BUILT civilization, DIED in all the wars, FOUGHT off bears and tigers and even spiders. The ones who kept their families and communities safe since the dawn of time.
Well, I see it. And I can't imagine I'm the only one. If you have managed to put up with all the ire and hate of modern day feminism; if you sat there through grade school, high school, and even college (if you managed to get it); if you put up with all that and still managed to grow up into a real man, I FUCKING APPLAUD YOU.
What is a real man?
This is just my opinion, but a real man takes responsibility for his own life: mistakes and accomplishments. A real man joins with others in teams and accomplishes what he sets out to do. A real man is a leader without becoming an oppressor. He operates with intention and has a purpose. He applies his mind to the world and actually bends it to his will.
A real man treats women with respect and not as playthings. A real man is not playing video games 80 hours a week. A real man would rather have the respect of others than be given a pile of un-earned cash.
If this is even partially you, men, you amaze me. Keep going and the world will be in good hands indeed.

I have always appreciated men, not all of them of course, but generally speaking.
One thing Iove about some men is that they can fix things, they can build huge buildings, how they protect their woman and their families.
I just wish more men were genuine men and not liars and cheaters. There is just too much of that going on these days.
I just couldn't picture a world without men. A lot of you are our hereos.
Keep helping people, even women when they need help. Do it for yourself if you don't like women. Do it on purpose.
I believe that being on this planet earth is a test from God. And our purpose of getting through life is by having other people help us to navigate it, even when it's hard.
Also to love one another. That's a hard one these days.
I can see clearly how some men are totally put off by the cookie cutter women that get all their ideas about men and picking them apart so much.
They just might be missing out on the love of their life if only they appreciated men that deserve it.
My hat is off to the good men of America 🇺🇸.

Annnnd…wait for it…. another girl who gets it!!!
Excellent post. Thank you.
Before I read your post.
Have you ever read a post with a similar title as yours- created and made by a guy, addressed to women?
And have you ever heard of the term gentleman?
By any chance, do of the men/guys you address in this post, you consider and could safely say are gentlemen?
I applaud your aims for unity possibly, but you’re also a hetero female possibly, and so that could have some impact other than mere unity, and I’ve seen how guys have manipulated or persuaded women to be agreeable to them in various ways (mostly flirtatious or sexual), so I just considered you could be one swayed by that and want to get brownie points or pitied men- who aren’t helpless and some will look at you as a true to feminine push over.
I hope things will work out. For all. I can’t get involved in this more than this.
Best to you 💯
I mean, how many times has a man ever complimented you? We know some men are capable of cat calling. Women don’t do that, but are any capable of imploring women? And have you personally seen it? I haven’t. Only from male family members, and my partner. Who is also with me not just for other things and enjoying each others presence but sexuality. Can any guy offer that to a woman without EXPECTING something in return? I’m not sure is all I’ll say.
You seem like a nice person though, and I’ve been here before trying to be compassionate with males. Just don’t make yourself expendable in trying to build others up. I hope you also take time to build up a sister, but maybe that’s not possible.
Men and women have their struggles. And women don’t have the extra muscle or testosterone to keep them going.
Yes. The good ones can. BUT we women need to want to make it reciprocal for everyone’s sake.
@SugarSugarplum THANK you for writing this. You and I are in the same corner! I have been trying so hard to be positive in the current environment of so much negativity between the sexes. I would add that a real woman is a refuge in the storm to a good man, has his back, is his equal but different partner. At all levels, women and men are made to complement each other and that makes us all stronger and better.
@Caroline91 As always, you are wise & a delight.
@MisterWack 🥸
@Caroline91 I have no idea what that means 🤣🤣🤣
@MisterWack Me being wise and delightful!! And really, really pretty lol
@Caroline91 Can’t argue with that 👍
"I saw a post that said men get like 2 compliments a year."
That is correct. And now we see 2 articles like these in a year.
The audacity you have to publish this is sort of mind blowing. You dare to do what few women (outside of Asian regions like Thailand and Philippines) are doing and that is giving us recognition and adoration.
It shall not go unnoticed. You have my appreciation for appreciating men. Congratulations! You have upped yourself above 50% of women already. If they call you "pick me", don't worry, you're fine.
Also I love women. Women, that respect us and hold adoration for us just like you did.
It's nice to be appreciated. Thank you.
I may come across as being hard on women - and sometimes I am - but I am aware that there are still women who appreciate and respect men generally (obviously not every individual man is worthy of respect, but most generally are). But Feminism has taught entire generations of women that men are useless, worthless, and unworthy of respect, and that's so incredibly toxic as an idea that such people should be shunned by society. Men and women are both important, both needed, and if we don't change this societal attitude, we are going to have an irreversible population collapse and what follows that is war and strife.
We are so much better, and life is overall much easier TOGETHER.
There's compliments and insults in your little rant lol. I get what you're trying to say, but it gets a lost in the message towards the end. Men put up with a lot and most women make it harder. Men already tell each other how great we are because women don't do it enough genuinely without strings attached. If you aren't complimented by your homies, get some new ones in your life.
What we’re the insults? I’m not seeing them.
Aww. Sweet. Yeah, many guys do deserve way more positive feedback than they get. Sending happy thoughts their way for a good rest of the week.
@DishLady Thank you, I appreciate nice & kind women like you making the world a better place one smile at a time. I wish you a good rest of your week too.
☺️ You too!
@DishLady ❤️👍✨
Women are valued for existing, men are valued for productivity even in this post 🤷 If a man just wants to chill like a monk or a hippie and not have ambition people will still treat him like a success object that failed.
I've never fought a war or a spider. I put spiders out of the house in a shed or somewhere safe outdoors. And according to my Mistress, I'm not real man.
But, I did want to tell you that I see your struggle and I appreciate you, too, Mistress.
*tips my hat* 🎩 …all I’ve been reading from females on GAG is that guys should off themselves 💀 or die alone, and yet @gag doesn’t ban these female trolls and that’s why women today in the west especially. There will be a shift where women and girls realize their mistakes. It could be the start of world war 3, her fake friends betraying her, famine that causes droughts, civil war, whatever it is, something big will happen in our world which is going to shake the very core of ignorant people, mark my words on that. That’s all I have to say, but I’m glad to see some women or girls actually realize what guys and men go through when females live in a world where they want to be the Center of attention.
This is truly a kindhearted post. I think you have a good heart. You (despite any angry feminist responses you may receive where they start another round of the gender war) are a Angel.
@SugarSugarplum
Thank you, as a man I appreciate you taking the time to appreciate us.
Just another case of a hypocritical young female thinking that being a real man means living for the purpose of women. There is nothing wrong casual sex if it is mutual. And it is up to gamers to do what they like with their life. You are just criticizing them because you cannot benefit from what they do.
So... I should STOP complimenting men?
What was that you said about gamers and men who engage in casual sex with women
Yeah, there's nothing wrong with them, I just wasn't aiming this compliment at them.
Casual sex isn’t mentioned in the post, “using women as playthings” is. I think that implies a degree of deception versus casual sex which is mutual. I’ll say it for her - anybody spends 80hrs a week gaming is not living to their full potential nor, as a man should, is contributing to the world they live in.
Shit I wish I had 80 hours a week to game. To much to do, not enough time.
As most men will say, I appreciate this post. It's not easy being a parent, working, and going through school. (This is not meant towards just men either, women who raise their kids and work to help to pay bills, that's a big fucking deal too in today's world!)
Yet nobody is playing games more than 10 hours a day that is ridiculous.
I mean I know a few people that all they do is game... like all day everyday.
Wow you are a keeper. Thanks for ignoring all the social media "bear in the woods or a man" nonsense. You'll have your pick of men clearly.
Especially men on the Autism spectrum. Poor guys. I would love to marry one knowing how sweet they are.
Eh I have autism and people just take my natural kindness as a weakness. Kind of feels like I have to make peace with permanently being alien to people to at least some degree and it certainly doesn't make me attractive towards women since they like men who can read between the lines and who are rough and dominant.
Being kind isn’t a weakness! It’s attractive. I understand what men like you are going through and I am here for you. By the way I was being sarcastic on that last post you commented on. I just see posts like that all the time and it’s just feeling silly.
Oh haha.. apologies for not recognizing the sarcasm 😅 Autism hinders my detection of sarcasm as you likely figured out.
Oh really? So you wouldn't mind if I talked to you about some things in private? I won't perv on you or anything, I am interested in what you think of autistic people.
Of course you can talk with me about anything I’m an open book!
2 compliments a year? Who are these rockstars? Two compliments per decade, seems about right. Not including family though.
Sorry, I should have started with: this is a kind-hearted post. We need more cross-sex support and less gender war BS. So this is cool to see.
That is one of the nicest things I ever heard I always tried to live by The Code Of The West , Live each day with courage.
If all girls’ thought the way you did , More Relationships and Marriages would last
men have done a top job, but so have women, giving birth to and raising future generations (as well as househusbands).
Cool but this post is about men. Imagine if on international women's day, men went around saying "Men matter too!"
Stop redirecting everything towards women for your own validation. Women get enough of that as is.
