Being a man sometimes hurts.

There is this feeling I get of shame sometimes just by being born male. I get it when I feel certain vibes mostly from women. It's that look I get and that attitude I get when I'm around women for the first time usually. That look that says "oh great, here comes another horny single guy. I hope he doesn't try to hit on me." It's the assumption that because I'm a guy, I think with my dick and that I'm a womanizer, and therefore an annoyance.

I hate this vibe I get from some women, and even from certain types of men too. It puts me in the position of having to prove to everyone that I'm not that type of guy and that I am different.

Being a single guy can be tough, there is so much open discrimination out there. Single women are treated like royalty. They are pampered beyond belief and put on a pedestal. They are always in demand. They get ladies night out and discount drinks and all sorts of benefits just by being born female. Single guys on the other hand, are treated as an annoyance, a pest, like dirty over populated rats. Every guy knows what I'm talking about. We have to pay more to get into clubs and organizations and we often need a woman just to get in in the first place.

Of coarse this is a reaction to supply and demand, I know that. Sometimes I'm jealous of the privileges that women get. It's not a man's world anymore, at least not in the U.S. Maybe if there was a abundance of single ladies everywhere than that would turn the tables, but until then it's hard out there for a pimp, err, I mean a man.
