And you know what makes it so ridiculous, right? You don't even have to be someone who dates men to have encountered the male ego.
Because the male ego isn't only experienced when you're in relationships with them.
The male ego, I mean, even if you're in the workplace with a man, how the male ego can show up is them over-promising and under-delivering.

Other ways the male ego shows up is in the ways that they overestimate their abilities to pull certain women.
And they are audacious and daring enough to actually make a move towards that woman.
And you know what's so crazy? You know what's so crazy? More than half the time, the woman actually does give in to the man's advances anyway.
