I don't want to hate men, and I think of them as individuals a lot, and some of them I think are ok, but for the most part, they repel me. I just detest them, their faces, their voices, their disgusting bodies. I can't trust them. I don't let myself like them, it's like a mental block. I don't want to be like this. It's illogical and I'm considering seeking help.
Tell me about your relationship with your father.

The fact that you recognize this is something to work past and that you're wanting to seek help is good, and normal.
Have you had a lot of bad experiences with men?
kind of normal, for me I used to hate females but when I started to talk to them more and understand them better I slowly stopped hating them.
Most women I've knew who hated men either had bad experiences with men, or were jealous of men. Do any of these apply to you?
Yes, I'm jealous of men because it seems like they are the default character and get to exist in the world made for them. Their body is a body, no predetermined connotations attached, and they can be safe, be their own person. I used to lurk on forums with the topics of gaming and game walkthroughs, because i like many games, under a male name to fit in, and, mask off, men are disgusting. Acting weird when I wasn't old enough to know they were, in real life, harrassing women just to feel big. Boys my age are loud and scary, and I think they all watch disgusting and rude things online, and consider themselves special snowflakes or geniuses, when really, they are more average than they think. I was good at math in school and in some grades in the groups for people who were very good at it, these boys were the most unbearable, arrogant, talking over people.
Everything that happens in countries that abuse women, most men turn a blind eye. I think men all are misogynists deep down.
i see where you're coming from. i don't know how old you are but maybe as you get older and hopefully come into contact with not-terrible men you'll start to feel differently. also, i mean you're not really wrong. lotta men do shitty terrible things and act like fools. you don't have to like or accept that, i certainly don't like it.
i guess the one constructive thing i can say is that you are aware of how you feel & think and have a desire to change in some way. maybe if you focus less on what you don't like about men and maybe focus on what you like about yourself & and being the kind of person you want to be it will help you. and it might even help others.
hate withers the heart
Now you say you look at them as individuals, but when you say stuff like "their voices, their disgusting bodies. I can't trust them" I beg to differ. Has anything happened in your personal life where your default position is that you hate men?
