“Not How Girls Work:” 35 Very Stupid Things Men Have Said About Women And Their Bodies (New Pics)
Some men do like to think that they know women better than they do themselves. Call it asshole syndrome or whatever, really, it doesn’t change how shockingly dumb some of their theories about women really are.
Like, women’s unnatural hair colors are warning signals to stay away, or that periods are telling you to hurry up and get pregnant. And while I'd like to know what kind of bad science fiction books they’re reading, this subreddit r/NotHowGirlsWork gives them a proper treatment in what they deserve: being put in their place and told to cut their BS statements!
Today, we selected some of the best of the worst posts shared on the subreddit, and be sure to check out our previous posts here and here after you’re done reading this one.

I Know It Doesn't Belong Here But After So Many Misogynist Memes I Finally Found A Good One, So I Really Wanted To Share It With You Guys
They Had Me In The First Half
Stay Away From Girls With Bright Unnatural Hair Colors
Previously we spoke with the general practitioner, medical researcher, and founder of PrimeHealth Clinical Research, Iris Gorfinkel, M.D. She told us how little men know about women’s bodies. In fact, there was a YouGov study in the UK conducted in 2019 which asked British men to label a diagram of female genitalia. The doctor said that the results “were actually abysmal” and that "well over half of the men surveyed could not label the vagina or labia, and the majority could not point out where it is that urine comes out."

I Really Needed To Share This. Victim Blaming Has Gone So Far, People Had To Put The Clothes Of The Victims In Am Exhibition. There Is Also A Little Girl's Dress On Wall, Which Is Really Disturbing
Most definitely. Had to remind myself to breath. This is heartbreaking
Load More Replies...dress is not a reason to be raped, if a man can't keep his feelings to himself when he sees a shoulder he should be in some form of therapy
Feelings have nothing to do with rape , if a man cant control himself and does this , therapy is not going to work , a bullet to the head would.
Load More Replies...And even if you were to dress like a whore, s**t, or whatever derogatory term they use, you STILL should NOT be raped. Dressing sexy is nice for others to look at, but NO TOUCHING.
You could be walking down the middle of the street at midnight naked, and that is not justification for rape or assault. There is NO justification, PERIOD.
Load More Replies...They are all bad enough but Jeez the little pink dress! Please give me five minutes in a room with the monster who attacked that child, they won't be walking out.
leave me in a room with all these rapists and the right to punish them the right to put the blame on them and not the victim's clothing
Load More Replies...I saw this in London. It is harrowing. Each has a small statement next to it. The clothes remind you how this happens to women and children just going about their normal day. Mostly wearing their everyday t-shirt and jeans.
Needs to be a traveling exhibit, going to every freaking high school and college in the land.
And Senate, and courthouse, and police office and HR and anywhere else where people have the authority to make decisions and the stupidity to still believe that what a person wears has any bearing in what may have happened to them.
Load More Replies...Oh my f*****g god the size of that little pink dress... that kid was probably no older than four. FOUR. 😣
I have little sister and can tell you that dress might be just 2-3 years old range.
Load More Replies...That... that little girls dress. I feel sick. The whole thing sickens me. You know what I was wearing? my school uniform. Black trousers, polo shirt and baggy jumper. I was 15. But that tiny dress, how old could she have been? 3, 4? Disgusting what some people will do. :(
The little pink dress on the left broke my heart. How do you even lust over a little girl? We live among sick bastards.
That small pink dress... for a, what, 5 year old? Someone really gonna try saying she was asking for it?
i've seen this before. one of them was a onesie made for a baby. A BABY.
this is mind numbing... there have been cases where old women were not spared too... it's the mentality...
The only “reformed” kind of rapist is a dead one. A life taken for the life they took from their victims. And that’s a hill I’ll readily die on.
Especially when you realize that there's a toddler's pink dress.
Load More Replies...I was indecently sexually assaulted while at a nightclub. While taking my statement, the police officer asked me if I’d been home to change before going to the station. I was wearing a t-shirt and baggy jeans, no make up, hair not done at the club where I was assaulted. He wouldn’t believe that I’d been assaulted wearing this outfit. The Crown Prosecution Service wouldn’t prosecute the case, even though we had the offender(s) before they even left the club, because ‘it would be difficult to convince a jury you were at a club wearing that’ or something or words to that effect. *This* is why British women and femme folk are now finally standing up to the misogynistic police force in this country.
Hits me in my already black soul, should be death for any man doing that, that little pink dress, horrendous.
That toddler dress... My god. Stupid offender probably got off with good behavior after a few months. Monster should be killed.
the exhibit's necessity is terrible, and i'm angry about all of it, but i think that little girl's dress distresses me most...
I've always found the claim about dressing a certain way is why a person got raped to be mind bogglingly stupid. I pointed it out to someone in an argument when I was 15 that a women in a skimpy outfit was raped not because of the outfit but because the rapist was prowling an area full of clubs/bars where he could find a victim likely to be intoxicated, this particular women just happened to be on a night out to enjoy herself with friends and was dressed in common "clubbing" style clothes and was chosen by the perpetrator because she was by herself after drunkenly staggering away from her friends to get a taxi home. As I told my friend some poor women was going to be a victim that night regardless of how they were dressed.
this whole exhibit is heartbreaking, but the worst part has to be the fact that i can see TWO CHILD DRESSES. i’m disgusted
This exhibit needs to be seen in every town and every country so that people understand how terrible rape is and that it is never the victims' fault.
Even if I walk around naked it is not your right to touch me, or make sexual comments, or do anything else except call the police maybe because it’s illegal to walk around naked.
Quote from the pink dress victim, heartbreaking "A sun dress. Months later, my mother would stand in front of my closet and complain about how I never wore any of my dresses anymore. I was six years old"".
the kid-size clothing is disturbing. there are some sick people out there.
I know a lot of people are having a reaction to the baby dress and while I do too, I just want to point out all victims are victims and none of them deserved what happened to them. If you don't see them all as equally awful you are indirectly buying into the idea of more/less innocent victims which is the opposite of what this is about.
I had a visceral, physical reaction to this photo. I don't know the word for rage and heartbreak rolled into one.
Dress is not reason for rape for a sexual sick pervert. Question: Are all men who rape sexual sick perverts?
So sickening how men think. Being a man it's just shows how much respect we have for our better half. It's sad to add that for a bunch of assholes we are all blamed.
Best comment I ever read on this subject was from a gay man who said that he had worn and not worn everything under the sun, and he never, ever felt like something he wore put him at risk of being raped. That basically, it's just an excuse that sick predators use to distract from the real issue. And that small child's pink dress is really upsetting.
I know the baby dress hits, but the one (not visible in this photo but in another I saw of this place) that hurt me so bad was a military uniform
The excuse of, 'I was provoked by her clothes." the guy needs shooting.
Girls/Women, stop listening to conservative men because they are out to destroy you. Age has nothing to do with being a rape victim. Clothing has nothing to do with being a rape victim. Men are the only reason why rape exists.
The caption is really far off on this one. They're not blaming the victim; they're showing that what the victim wears has nothing to do with being a rape victim, thus disproving the blaming belief that what the victim wears causes a rape.
What's equally as disturbing as the little girl's dress is the boy's clothing on the wall too.
Kind Of Like Going To Work For Free Coffee. But Not
"There may be a perception from some men that they can get away with not being able to name visible parts of a woman's body, and still understand enough to know what has to go where. But that sets the goalposts pretty low. Things were made a whole lot better with just a bit more know-how whatever the starting point may be, there's always more that can be learned," she explained.
Well, At Least He Doesn’t Think Women Are Cows
Yea Ladies! Turn Off Your Cramps Before You Get To Work… Gosh
This fool thinks we just choose to bleed and be in pain at inconvenient times. How does he own a business? I'm surprised he can tie his own shoes.
How Can He Get That Idea From This Description?
In case men are curious. It is uncomfortable, can be painful, and for a lot of women who have been assaulted, it is downright traumatizing.
Some time ago, we also spoke about so-called nice guys with counsellor & psychotherapist Tati Silva, who said that a man who is physically less attractive tends to compensate by being nice to be able to connect to people. However, Silva said they will overcompensate with over-the-top behaviors. "The nice guy will use all the tools to charm the person they are interested in. However, if it is not replicated, the nice guy's true colors come to light," the psychotherapist explained.
It turns out that a nice guy also has a sinister side. “In the mind of the nice guy, the person he is pursuing should repay his action by becoming his girlfriend or boyfriend; for him, that is how these things work. The nice guy will lash out if he does not get what he wants, which might be indirectly influenced by misogynistic entitlement complexes."
Yes!! Exactly This
More Milk = More Boobs
According to Silva, misogyny occurs unconsciously and it usually can be linked back to hatred that forms early in life, often as a result of a trauma involving a female figure. But like everywhere, there are exceptions and the psychotherapist warns that “this doesn't apply to everyone.” “There are genuinely nice guys and girls out there who will be okay to be put in the friend zone, respecting your opinion. They won’t expect anything back,” she concluded.

Made it to just past 20 before wanting to throw my phone out the window. Why can we not move forward and fix this?
For the same reason we don't have world peace and an end to war.
Load More Replies...What mgtow/incel hole of the internet did they find this many ignorant men?
I just went through that. And my only reaction is: WHAT ON EARTH?????
Taught my boys from a young age to treat girls like they would boys. As friends. My oldest is turning thirteen and one of his best friends is a girl and they both want a sleep over, as friends because that is how they see each other.
Fantastic advice. Kinda like the advice on boys in the daring book for girls.
Load More Replies...I would like to hear from some men reading this: How many men actually ascribe to these beliefs?
A happily married, well-adjusted man here. I'm absolutely sickened by this sort of sexist nonsense. I don't know of a single man who would believe any of this dreck.
Load More Replies...My question after all these is: In what reality do women starve because men aren't in the room/building/social sphere? And, corollary, these same idiots are the ones who want women to do all the cooking, so.....
After ready this hallucinant entries a few questions remain. What was the average age of the 'men' who posted this? What was the education these people enjoyed?Could I be right in assuming there's a lot of homeschooling involved? To be honest it isn't only men who are ignorant. Read a post (probably on BP) about a girl who gave birth in hospital asking the nurse when the doctor would pierce her nipples so she could breastfeed...
And the one about the woman who was terrified of getting pregnant with triplets because she didn't want to be pregnant for 27 months, 😂😂😂. The ages of these guys is probably all over the place, from 13 to who knows. Education wise, hmm - in the U.S., they're probably a result of the "no child left behind" program introduced back in 2001. It was intended to help disadvantaged students but in reality just meant that all students were passed on to the next grade/level of education without actual proof that they had truly learned anything.
Load More Replies...I have a theory that our toxic competitive social structure helps to create this issue. People are like this because they are incapable of self reflection and assuming blame for their own short comings. But why are so many of us so bad at self reflection? I think it is because we are made to be hyper competitive as soon as we start school. Admitting any sort of flaw makes you less desirable and less competitive, but being incapable of self reflection and self improvement makes your value dramatically decrease. Insecurity and fear of personal flaws seems to be the underlining cause of half of these posts.
And all the over-scheduling of our kids! From the time they wake up til they go to bed - go to school all day, then soccer/football/swimming/piano/dance/gymnastics/whatever, all while eating fast food in the car between practice/lessons/games & trying to do homework...no down time, no peaceful family dinners, no 'alone' time, no relaxing with a good book. It's sad.
Load More Replies...Oh let them be. After all it's very unlikely they will be breeding anyway.
I feel like every school should have a class every few months that teaches guys about girls and all the wrong stereotypes about them. It could definitely be used.
Already being taught, in my school we had a lesson about stereotypes, guess what, none of them were about boys, only girls. Hey, I guess only women are discriminated against right ? It's not like so many people in these comments think the majority of men are like this.

Yikes. If people are so weird about cis women, I am really worried about coming out as a trans woman.
You mean the people who hold misogonystic beliefs shown here are stupid, right? I hope that's what you meant
