My [17m] friend [18f] has a friend [17f] who has a hate boner for men, to the extent she’s almost a walking stereotype— saying she hates all men, that 90% of men are evil, that she’ll always take a girls side over a guy, etc. She complains a lot about how men don’t treat her like a person, not realizing the irony of the fact she’s doing the same. Suffice to say, she gets on my nerves a lot.

For an example of why, at one point I was talking to my friend about a breakup I had with a ex of mine, where I felt she was extremely unfair and not compassionate even when I always went out of my way to be compassionate to her.

This mutual friend was there, and jumped into the conversation, saying that I was probably horrible to her and deserved better. She didn’t know my ex, or my relationship at all, so you get the idea.

Anyhow, today I was hanging out with my friend, and she was there. She started commenting on how my taste in clothes was a ‘red flag’ and a ‘turn off’, completely unprovoked. I responded that she’s not somebody I find attractive at all, so why would I care about her opinion on this?

She got angry and called me a sexist AH. I don’t think so, instead I think it’s a genuine point. Why would I care that somebody I find unattractive finds my clothing style unattractive?

AITA?
