Writing a captivating piece takes way more than putting pen to paper. The author spends countless hours developing the plot, writing and rewriting it, crossing out hundreds of unnecessary lines, and doing the research—lots and lots of it. Some writers could work more on the two, wiping out some of the information or researching it better. Otherwise, they might end up being shamed for some of their inaccurate, unrealistic, or plain foolish lines. As these male writers depicting female characters did.

The subreddit “Men Writing Women” is dedicated, as the description suggests, to “how men who create films, books, TV, and graphic novels characterize women”. Members of the community clearly don’t shy away from sharing their finds, and we have gathered some of their best examples into this list today. If you feel like it’s too short, check out our previous pieces about “Men Writing Women” here and here.

Even when there's zero chance of pregnancy, it's still good to get that confirmation - for about 5 minutes!

    Perhaps. But I think what women are reacting to in this post is the stereotypical way of describing a woman. It's just that descriptions like that can be limiting, and women would like to be seen as having more to offer the world than just being the stereotypical mother/nurterer.

    A Jack of all trades is a master of none, they say. That rings true, as there’s hardly a person who knows the ins and outs of every subject out there. And writers are no exception; no matter how well-read they are, writing about specific topics usually requires specific knowledge, which they might not have.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Similarly, writing about certain groups of people calls for knowing what they might be like. Or the basics of their anatomy, at least, if that’s what’s important for the story. Otherwise, you might end up sounding ludicrous to those who have a better understanding of the topic, not to mention the experts.

    Grammar Factory suggested a rule of thumb for doing enough research for your writing. According to them, you should analyze it enough to be able to write your first draft with no holes, without it becoming a reason to put off the writing process itself.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    In his book, ‘On Writing: A Memoir of the Craft’, Steven King pointed out that even though the research shouldn’t outshine the story itself (well, unless it’s a research paper you’re working on), it’s crucial for fixing any possible errors in the story and adding some credible details.

    Hey, can we talk about the five lines above that, where "... a society in which women are taught *anything but* the management of a family, the care of men, and the creation of the future generation is a society which is on its way out"? The most favourable things one might presume would be Hubbard being a pre-digital troll, a disappointed incel, a con artist *to* disappointed incels and/or a peson who found a way to store a vacuum between his ears.

    Step one: prepare to commit sexual assault. Step two: shake hands (right hand in right hand?). Step three: say something inane. Step four: force her head up with your free hand. Step five: while she is paralyzed with fear go in... but stop if she isn't pure! (Who knew they wrote incel fan fiction a century ago.)

    The kiss scenes from old movies are pretty cringe by today's standards. I think the mentality was along the lines of "good girls don't give in without resisting first" or something like that.

    If 50s movies have taught me anything it's that if she resists, manhandle her because after about 15 seconds she will decide she wants it and hug you back. /S. I was going to make a joke about all the sighing and that you should be careful about that unless you have a mint in your mouth - then it turned out they were basically saying the same thing.

    Unless it’s total fiction you’re writing about, fact-checking is important. Certain claims made by authors can raise disputes, or have consequences bigger than being cited in a certain subreddit. The author Lisa Bickmore pointed out that when a writer wants to use factual material, it’s also crucial they find good, quality information. Not only that, it’s vital to present it in a way that’s understandable to the reader.

    My problem with snips like that is, they're often picked from the inner dialogue of really misogynistic characters and not at all representative of the whole book or the writer. For example people love to pic the most misogynistic thoughts of Beverly's useless, abusive husband from Steven Kings It to point out how misogynistic King is. But it's definitely not King. It's the one character in that book. She kicks his but and leaves him for someone better because he's an abusive AH (and he fies when he eventually sees the monster, bleeding from his eyes). Has someone read the book that's shown here? Is this the general opinion the book is sprouting or is this an inner monologue of a misogynistic character taken out of context to bash a book trying to show the misogyny of that character?

    Then blowing out the candle, he settled himself comfortable on his back and immediately started snoring. When he woke up the next morning, he noticed a few things changed dramatically during the night. First of all, he was tied to the bed and stripped naked. He was also not in the house but outside on the lawn, surrounded by all of his stuff. There was a sign glued to his chest hairs that simply said, "Oh Hell No!"

    Despite being important to the integrity of the piece, facts can be too much for some readers. Unless it’s a manual—in which case, you know what you’re getting yourself into as a reader—having to deal with an abundance of detailed information can get tiresome or even boring for the regular bookworm.

    RJ's books are about men finding their place again in a world dominated by women. The chapters are written from the characters point of view. Some of the men are sexist and so are the women. Both genders get ogled and reduced to being judged by their looks. I have seen people totally miss huge story arc because they don't really read it. They skim through WOT.

    In order to prevent the prospect of tiring out the reader, writers often turn to a more detailed, exciting way of writing. That in itself is not a bad idea at all; however, it’s important not to go overboard with such embellishments.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    Some of the examples on this list, for instance, describe certain characters in a detailed way, which is simply incorrect. That’s when facts can turn against the writer, and make them the butt of the joke at times.

    Other examples in the “Men Write Women” collection portray women in a way that is not factually correct, nor amusing. They are often based on stereotypes, which can be offensive to some female representatives, or emphasize certain “truths” that not a lot of them would agree to, such as the “magnificent uselessness of a woman’s face”, for instance.

    This isn't a gender thing, it is a purpose thing. If the purpose of the story is to instruct, start with the point. "Here is how to build a wooden bench". If the purpose of the story is to entertain and keep the reader in suspense - then don't. "It was a dark and stormy night..."

    The problem with any "good, old rule" is that if it's an old rule it was probably derived exclusively by men.

    Don't tell George Lucas. Him being of the factual minded sex, I'm sure he's already figured out he did the first trilogy all wrong and will spend the rest of his days lamenting on what might have been had he only started in the beginning.

    This is actually a very good book about trauma. I don't think the author was referring to the child as sexual in any way. Just trying to find a word for that thing kids do when they hide their face, peek out, smile, wink etc. Many people call it flirting. They're not calling it being seductive. This is totally taken out of context and inflated.

    behave as though attracted to or trying to attract someone, but for amusement rather than with serious intentions. The definition of flirt btw. It doesn't empty sex in anyway. The word choice is still poor but this is from a book about how to cope with trauma. It's not a story it's a non fiction that discusses the origin of trauma and ways to help it. It's a best seller and a very well regarded book.

    This book is HIGHLY recommended to me by female friends. Context: a lot of people use the word "flirt", when referring to children, in a completely non-sexually and non-romantic way. People use it to mean "trying to get your attention, looking cute, playing hide-and-seek, etc". Maybe a poor choice of words, but NOT flirtatious in the adult sense.

    The author said "any two-year-old", so it's not about women in particular. He happened to use a girl's name in his example, but his meaning would be the same if he had said "Fred" instead of "Kimberly".

    Please reconsider. He's using the word in a completely nonsexual, sadly archaic way. I remember it well being used to be describe babies' attention-attracting behavior (like erupting in smiles at eye contact) as "flirting." Dear God, if there's ANYONE in publishing who's NOT trying to normalize pedophilia, it's this guy.

    Certain views towards women in these snippets are not only displeasing but outdated as well. They often sound like something from the 19th century—the time when gender bias was so strong, some women authors chose to write under male pseudonyms. (George Eliot, who was actually Mary Ann Evans, or George Sand, a.k.a. Amantine Lucile Aurore Dupin, just to name a couple.)

Is it full of holes like a porch door in a hot climate or is it solid like like the door on the mud porch of our family farm? Can bugs get in? Does it slam shut if you are not gentle with it? Does this mean that my bits would be the muddy boots in this analogy? Or worse... the mosquito? /S lol

    Again, this is a character thinking and consistent with that particular woman's personality and background. Stephen King writes EXCELLENT women characters - at least, he became good at it as he matured. In some of the earlier books they're a bit two-dimensional.

    The thing about James Patterson is that he hardly ever writes anything by himself anymore, he almost always works with a co-author, so your experience may vary significantly depending on who his writing partner was. This one was co-authored by J.D. Barker.

    At the risk of being run out of here on a rail, which is fine, everyone is entitled to an opinion, describing a naked teen is not pedophilia. Describing a naked child is not pedophilia. Nothing sexual is happening in these descriptions. Anything of that sort would be happening in your mind, if at all, based on where you took the description. And there are a lot of legal cases, studies and analysis that show, even if a sexual act with or among children was described in writing, that's not pedophilia either. There's no actual victim (it's made up writing) and even though it's gross or disturbing, it's not real. Claiming something imaginary is a crime is a pretty complicated path, although I understand the revulsion and the fear it could inspire actual action. Still though, it's just a description and it's not actually the real thing. There's a difference in my opinion.

    And it is written by a woman describing the physical onset of puberty in a young girl. Is that pedophilia? It's graphic but accurate. It doesn't fit the criteria of this topic - male writers revealing their ignorance about women. This author knows exactly what she is describing because she has been there and lived that. Who chose this item to be included in this list? Were they trying to show the difference between a knowledgeable author and the other ignorant and misogynistic examples written by men?

    The dude died in 1900 can we stop with judging people in the past with our own social views. Beyond good and evil was published in 1886. It might still be wrong but at the time it was just how people thought. Remember people flat earth was once fact. Africans being inferior was once fact. Homosexuality being a mental disorder was once fact.

    In fairness to Vonnegut, he's asserting what MEN want to do, nothing about Maggie. They see her as a baby producer; she takes birth control. (He says she's dull, but is that misogyny, or his way of saying that she was NOT a remarkable woman.)

    This is factual. Less so now than in 2010 and less so in 2010 than in the 1960s but yeah, many women used to be brought up that their periods were secret hush hush nobody talks about that and God forbid a man sees you with tampons. I was brought up by a matter of fact mom but many people were not. Modern times it is more open. I'm male but keep some tampons on the shelf over my toilet for any visitor who might need them. But back when I was a boy you never saw stuff like that. Culture also matters. I'm talking about USA but in some countries it is still a huge thing. Also in some countries (Philippines for example) most women use pads and tampons are harder to come by because for some reason using tampons makes you a 'bad girl'. TLDR: Be glad you live in a time and place where the above paragraphs sound more ridiculous.

    I feel like this one does not meet the thread subject of 'men barely understand women". This is just an author lampooning a particular type of woman who is overtly 'fake'. I've seen them IRL. Women with fake hair, fake nails, fake breast, fake tan and such to the point you wonder if you hosed off Mrs. Doubtfire you'd find Robin Williams underneath. It obviously is not describing most women but the creature being described does exist IRl.

    Two things a·rouse/əˈrouz/ verb 1. evoke or awaken (a feeling, emotion, or response). "something about the man aroused the guard's suspicions" 2. awaken (someone) from sleep. "she had been aroused by the telephone". You are now aware that aroused isn't slang for erection. In context aroused means hard. Also nipples are an erogenous zones and 100 percent will get hard if sexually excited. They will also perk up if your cold scared and excited this is true for makes and females

    The term 'gay' used in the context of sexual attraction is not exclusively male. It has come to be used almost exclusively to refer to males, the obvious counter part being lesbian, but strictly speaking it doesn't have to be a man. So basically just another way of saying, "even though I'm a lesbian I still had a reaction to (what she saw)"

    Context matters for this one. It's been a long time since I read the book but IIRC she was a goddess with three forms - the young maiden, the middle age, the old lady. Zane had met her before but called her by the wrong name and she was explaining that ATM she was not that persona, she was the middle aged one. In the context of the book it made sense. "(Greek mythology) One of the three Fates (Moirae), daughter of Zeus and Themis; the measurer of each thread of life. Her Roman equivalent is Decima. "

    The last two boxes with the vanity / mirror stuff I get. But IDG why the other boxed texts are a fit for this thread. Being noticed for your physical beauty when you don't want to be is a very real problem for some women. I know a woman - very stand out attractive - who quit her much better paying job as a server at a casino to work for less money at Lowes because she was soooooo tired of men constantly making passes at her. And she is rather shy / quiet - not a "flirt". Her stepfather was a cook at the same casino and one time a man was talking to him about what he'd like to do to her and so on and he was like, "Dude, that's my daughter!" "Oh! Sorry man! I didn't know!" (and so it went).

    This isn't fair if you actually know dune This is a conversion with an Imprinter. They were agents of a faction known as The Sisterhood. Imprinters were genetically altered women that used sex as a way to make men absolutely devoted to them (imprinting) so they could control them and further their own interest. Could be viewed as misogynistic or empowerment I suppose.

    Stop associating stretch marks with pregnancy! Many people have them without ever being pregnant. I was pregnant once and have no stretch marks to show for it (the only reminder being that huge c-section scar). It all depends on your genes and how weak or strong your connective tissue is

    Dear Charles, the trains run at 3 AM because those hours have the least amount of vehicle traffic to be held up waiting for trains to go past crossings. It's a logistics thing. The women and babes are asleep at 3 AM because they were up at 11 PM, 2 AM and will be up again around 5 or 6 AM. Let them try to get some sleep.

    This is at least the second entry with 'flirt'. TBF, flirting is not always sexual. In fact deinition it is not serious. I knew a little girl (she is a grandmother now) who absolutely did flirt with her dad even though she had no idea what sex was. Or another way to say it might be 'turning on the charm'. But when she wanted dad to say yes to something she would act all nice and bat her eyes and such. It was so obvious it was comical. I have known the family since before she was born and there was absolutely never anything sexual between them. In fact the dad is rather straight laced / shy / introvert. We laugh about it now and she admits she did it. I have no idea where she picked it up. EDIT: She reminded me a bit of Flower in the Bambi movie.

    This doesn't really belong here. Feed is a surrealist-dystopian novel in which most of the characters' minds and personalities have been overridden by the internet. If you read the book, you understand the overall context, in which the narrator can't think or remember or do anything that isn't suggested by 'the feed.'

    Most of the first half of the book is written in this style. It's a surrealist dystopia, the kind of thing where individual sentences out of context are just nonsense, but if you read the whole thing you start to understand it. It's actually very, very good; the quote here isn't meant to be objectifying a woman so much as an individual thought trying to break through corporate-enforced brain fog.

    I have seen the movie several times. Never thought of her breasts as large. Just googled still pics and there are a few where she looks a bit like a woman with larger breasts who dresses to minimize. In other scenes she does not look large at all IMO. But if you have never seen the movie, she is perhaps 'large' for Japanese but in no way is she a "Jessica Rabbit" kind of figure. For the most part, the only large breasts in Ghibli movies are the "old lady" characters. Granny/witch in Spirited Away and so on. Ghibli movies are about empowering women, not sexualizing them.

    Author writes that women are overly emotional. BP: "That's unrealistic! It goes in the thread!" Another author writes about a woman who is not overly emotional. BP: "That is also unrealistic! It goes in the thread!" lololol I don't know about the tribes mentioned but in some cultures with very sexist roles / rules it is very believable that a group who considers women 'lesser' in the first place would be unimpressed by crying women. Again with the Philippines but another example is I was going to purchase a small umbrella - cuz rain. My PI relatives kindly informed me that only women use umbrellas. I was like WTF but okay, whatever - and just let myself get rained on to avoid rocking the boat.

    This is actually very accurate for some women of a certain age. My step mom was visiting my grandmother (pa-ma) in the rest home. She noticed something in her lap. She finally realized grandma didn't have a bra on and the something was the end of her breast protruding out under the bottom of her shirt. So yeah... orange in a windsock about nailed it.
