This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

What no male role models does to a mf.

I'm kind of surprised what gets downvoted these days.. do people actually not know that humans are imitation learners in almost every social and scientific aspect? ๐Ÿ˜จ

In the same vein I'm shocked how little reading comprehension people have these days (such as this comment) and how people and how quickly people jump to align any information with their worldview. The post even said "majority" with no indication that the father wasn't around. For example someone that has two siblings, both sisters would fit that category.

I think you misinterpreted some or most of the downvotes. The problem seems to be the role model that they did find.

The down votes are out of line. There's a reason why toxic masculinity exists, and that's poor or no male role models worth a damn. In the case of dating, it's good to have input from both men and women so you can PID your approach and not come off as some dweeb.

op had no male role models because the entire scenario is completely made up for attention on the internet
