Think about this: When a man has an important idea about a project, or an idea in general, or a realization about himself, who do you think he's going to tell? How often do you hear about men's lives outside of what they're telling another man NEAR you? How often does a man come up to you and tell you about an idea he has that isn't sexual? Probably not often enough to make you feel humanized in his eyes. So, what's left? The only thing that's left is what he wants to tell you to make you think a certain way about HIM. He might end up telling you an anecdote about his life in response to you accusing him of cheating when you find the texts on his phone. This is not real communication; this is male brainwashing. If men were naturally inclined to communicate with women, we wouldn't live in a patriarchy. Everything a man tells you is to make you feel a certain way or act a certain way in regards to HIM. So, unless you're in a committed relationship of decades, and his mom just died and he's crying, assume that anything he's telling you is propaganda, and that his personal details, life goals, theories about the universe, and spiritual issues/growth, is being shared with other men. Men are mostly bro-social by nature. Men will tell you their "life goals" and "plan" decades with you only for you to find out he's just trying to impress YOU in the moment with what he thinks you like. Propaganda. Manipulation. The bottom of the barrel communication from them ALWAYS. They are duplicitous towards us by nature. Further edit: Men who claimed we are trapped in a liberal propaganda machine are projecting. The machine is anti-female, and always has been. A man who hates society for being "modern" just hates the fact that women are actively hated, but that we have laws preventing them from killing and raping us. The propaganda, by and large, will never be pro-female, because propaganda is AGAINST the truth, and the truth is that women are as smart as men (we actually score higher on IQ tests now), and capable of creation to the same extent, and DON'T rape everything around us. Men hate that.

I don't believe in hell, but if it was real, I think it would consist of an endless stream of men telling me about their career goals.
Males are socialized/conditioned to lie to women.
It's why I've met so many self-proclaimed entrepreneurs. They think it sounds good and possibly believable.
I've even met the founder of Instagram. 🙄
I have spent more time in the company of male friends than female friends in my life (sadly). What you are saying is partially true. There are things that men only share with other men, and that is, the aweful things they do or want to do to women, especially sexual. However, it is my experience that men usually tell on themselves. The good, the bad, the ugly. In every female figure they look for a mommy/therapist, so of course you're gonna here all about their dreams, goals and realizations. The real question is, will they listen to yours (usually not).
Yes they do lie, project, gaslight but that's more in the context of discussing relationships to keep the power balance in their favor. Other than that, they LOVE to talk about themselves with women, whether it's for the wrong or the right reasons. So what you're saying in your post doesn't reflect my experience, infact, men's inability to shut up about themselves is the biggest asset we have to vet them.
You can't spell "manipulation" without MAN. I do find men, especially the bad ones, will tell on themselves if I listen to them without judgment. The things males have said to me would turn your hair white. I just smile and pretend to understand, then I run for the hills when I hear the truth. And there is even truth in their lies when they're explaining how "successful" they are. Always ask yourself, "What is he really telling me? What's behind this disclosure?" For instance, I had a guy who was my age (46) telling me about f*cking a 22 year old who had a huge, loose vag. So he was actually telling me that he has a tiny, flaccid dick and no respect for women. He was also trying to neg me by talking about a much younger woman. I didn't take the bait to compete for his attention. I just realized he's disgusting.
