/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

I just witnessed a woman ragequit an art discord because she was offended not by what it represented, but what she THOUGHT it represented.
First she was all "nice" and "just letting the admin know cause he might have put that emoticon without realizing it", then a few people said "ur wrong lmao" and she lost it.

The reason men are nice to women, besides wanting to get into their pants, is because they refuse to waste their free time trying to reason with the drama that would ensue from treating them like "one of the guys".
Some are also afraid, cause assuming it's not a random semi-anonymous community on the Internet and the woman has any inch of power (police, a boyfriend, her parents, other random thirsty guys around you), she will use it to try and subdue anyone they deem conflict-seeking (call it a shit-test if you want, the result is the same).

For the record, I treat women and men alike within a reasonable margin and have more female friends than male ones, but you don't get to keep all these mental children around by being 100% straight-forward and pragmatic as you'd be with a dude. You have to turn everything into little games, coded language, maybe be "harsh in a joking manner", so it doesn't hurt feefees, even though you actually mean it and she knows you actually meaning and appreciates the feedback, but the rituals are paramount and even characteristic of female oversensitiveness to language.

I've grown used to it, but the moment you start demanding things on top of all common courtesy I already have I draw the line.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
