People are capable of hating things for the craziest reasons. My point is, dont't take average ratings of tv shows and movies online at face value. I remember back in 2010 on Myanimelist a lot of trolls downrating LOGH and up rating Clannad and vice-versa. People couldnt' handle that their favourite anime was not rated number 1.
And my comment about dudes rating shows and movies cuz they were forced to watch with their gfs/wives was mostly a humours comment, anyway. But it wouldn't surprise me if that was some of the reasoning behind men downrating female targeted shows and movies. Also what do you mean by "nice-guy"? As in someone pretending to be a good person when they're not? |

I mean, being nice is the minimum I expect out of someone I meet. I'd say most of the people I'd go out of my way to talk/socialise with are nice and pleasant. A lot of girls I know are nice, but why would that make me automatically fall in love with them? If a girl came up to me and told me I should love her because she is a nice girl I'd be like "eh what?" and wonder what made her so entitled and desperate.

wow. smh. sad.
and to think only 'dudes' trash movies. equally sad. I guess we'll ignore some popular youtube females who trash things on a daily basis and make a hobby out of it. one going so far as to even being called a dc hater. but, that would go against the narrative. |

The reason those forums were removed is -- probably -- because they received a lot of money from Sony, upset about the female Ghostbusters movie flak.

Reddit Bans ‘Incel’ Group for Inciting Violence Against Women
Yup. Edited to add this one: New Hampshire Legislator Linked to Reddit ‘RedPill’ Forum Resigns Republican state Rep. Robert Fisher was identified as the creator of a group fighting what it calls "feminist culture." (snopes) Quote:

That fanbros talk themselves out of nice things by pretending a site that isn't theirs as their own personal safe space.

I wouldn't be surprised if that was the case. But I also wouldn't be surprised if alot of other studios joined in and 'pressured' them to take the movies down. mostly due to negative reviews, and ALSO because of spoiler leaks.

But yeah, then the female Ghostbusters movie was about to come out and people attached to it like Leslie Jones were being "attacked" everywhere and things hit critical mass for Sony.

I'm not really an expert on the dating, romance and hook ups world; nor do I pay attention to who gets with who and who is interested in who. And I've never heard any guy I know irl being classified like that. So yeah, it's the first time I've heard of this. Why do you seem so surprised?

don't worry, I've never heard of it either. this is the only place where I've heard people have a hate on for 'nice guys'.
which, judging from that image, doesn't really qualify them for the nice guy category, but the weirdo category.. |

In that case, I can't recommend Doctor Nerdlove enough:
The Problem With “Nice Guys” (dated 12-17-2012) And lest this get too far off topic... False entitlement is what leads to toxic behavior. Fandom Gatekeepers honestly think that they're the arbiters of what a fan of a thing should look and act like. They're the reason we don't have nice things.

I know that a lot of guys mistreat women, but I just had never heard of "the nice-guy" thing, that's all.
I know that many "nerdy" dudes used to complain about girls going for "douchebags" in HS and uni, but I didn't know there was a name for that. |

you'd think that if it was such a big deal, I've had heard of it mentioned more than by two people on one message board. but, it's 2017, so everything seems has to be turned into a new buzzword problem. https://img.buzzfeed.com/buzzfeed-st...t-quality=auto I mean, just doing research on this to see if it IS brought up elsewhere...IF you're dating someone like this, that is NOT a nice guy. i'm sorry, it just isn't. and if that's all you run into, you need a new bunch of friends cause clearly they are all jerks. or, you know, you could be the jerk if that's what you think all nice guys are like....but, I degress.. anyway, so, toxicity.. yeah..it's everywhere . |
