Women Share 25 ‘Rage Baits’ That Drive Men Almost To The Brink Of Insanity

#1

I was wearing a NY hat and he said “quick name 5 players on that team” l said “quick name 5 women that feel safe around you”.

#2

When he says he’s an “alpha” male, I respond, “So, Team Jacob?” They never fail to crash out. Or, if they have a wolf tattoo, I always tell them that I love their Twilight tattoo.

#3

When men used to tell me I looked better when I didn’t wear my glasses, I’d respond with ‘You also look better when I don’t wear my glasses.’

#4

I have a work colleague who is the most misogynistic guy I’ve ever met. One day, while he was giving one of his misinformed speeches about women, we started to argue… When he got emotional, I asked him if he was on his period.

He didn’t speak to me for a week.

#5

when they tell you to smile more reply back with “you first” and when they smile say “good boy” and walk away.

#6

Referring to their lifted pick-up truck as “gender affirming care.”

#7

He told me that women should stay home and look after the kids. I told him, ‘Your salary and status in life should match that.’ Silence.

#8

We were rafting and a man was trying to make fun of his wife for forgetting to pack his water shoes and I was like, wow that’s embarrassing you don’t know how to pack shoes and need your wife to do it for you. She laughed, he did not.

#9

A boss told me I’d look better with make up on. I told him he’d look better with hair. He just walked away and never brought it up again. Mind you I was 21, tan, fit, and living in Huntington Beach.

#10

Refer to their job as a “male” job…”this is Jason, he’s a male engineer.”

#11

My ex husband called me a “_” (fill in the blank) laughed and told him I’d been called worse. He said what. I said his wife.

#12

When an ex started a fight for no reason, I held my finger up, said, ‘Wait a second,’ walked away, and came back with a blanket. I placed it on his shoulders and told him, ‘Now, you’re super mad.’ I’ve never seen a man go red SO fast.

#13

I’m 6’1” and men in public will gaggle at me like I’m a circus animal. They’ll ask me how tall I am and I’ll say something completely wrong like 5’8” and slowly watch their confusion turn to anger as they reevaluate their own height.

#14

I wear hearing aids in both ears. Once during an argument I took them out, laid them on the counter and said I don’t want to hear what you have to say anymore and walked away.

#15

“If you can’t drop your weights quietly then maybe they’re too heavy for you” always sends them into a rage. But also, stop throwing your GD weights.

#16

I had a random dude being condescing about my German shepherd being “a lot of dog” for me. My highly titled, nationally placed GSD that I bred and trained myself. I said, “well they do need a handler that’s a clear and consistent communicator, so they actually do amazing with women.”

#17

I work with “an alpha” and every day I tell him I like his top (polo) or his blouse (button down). He ducks when he sees me coming but I always make a point of walking down his aisle to compliment him.

#18

Halfway through them mansplaining I say “it’s fine if you don’t know, I’ll just google it.”

#19 If a man ever ask what you bring to the table respond with “what are you lacking that you need a woman to provide for you.” F**king devastates them.

#20

I had a customer tell me “not to get smart” with them, I said “but how would you know” *click

#21

Whenever (an old man) asks why they sent a female on the ambulance I always tell them they’ve always relied on a woman to take care of them, why change the status quo now?

#22

A man once told me that drinking wasn’t ‘cute.’ I told him I wasn’t trying to be cute, I was trying to be drunk, so being around him would be more enjoyable.

#23

“Damn that’s a lot of anger. You should get your hormones checked.”

#24

“Let’s talk about this when you’re less emotional”

#25

I work in construction, and my favorite thing to do when a guy is crashing out on-site is to ask him, ‘You’re having some big feelings today, huh?’ It works every time.

While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.
