Being a male in the UK
What is it like to be a male in the UK? I don’t have one word or sentence to describe it. What I will say is that it’s hard to be a man over here at times because culturally, British men are pushovers and when you’re not you’re seen as evil.
I swear the men in this country have been gaslighted into obedience. I’ve heard foreigners say that women dominate men in British culture, and that’s pretty true. Women are more vocal and demanding and they don’t usually like men who are in control and confident.
They may say they want a dominant man, but that’s only aesthetically. They actually want a submissive man who’ll do whatever they say.
Luckily to the disgust of white people, there are a lot of different cultures here, ones that appreciate a real man. I’ve had pretty poor success with white British women as we clash too much along with being on different wavelengths. You’re always in a battle for power and there is no compromise or teamwork.
White British guys usually play a passive role and allow their women to dictate their lives. If you disrupt this you will cause her to explode in tears and tell you why saying no to her once in your 5 year relationship is abusive.
