Nah, assholes are assholes, her personality is just so confrontational that I don’t want to deal with it. I don’t think gender has anything do with not wanting every conversation to be a small fight full of insults.
It's true. If anything, people are more tolerant of women being this way. Where a man would get a fist in the face, a woman will get polite or even good treatment, especially if she's pretty.
Take your thinly veiled Jordan Peterson type misogynistic woe is man takes elsewhere. People aren’t more accepting of aggressive women and more than aggressive men, all are off putting.
I think buddy is right in one aspect. If she was a waifu pretty girl who was a bit of an asshole people would stick it out. But she's also an UGLY character which makes it easier to say bye to her. Is that sexist? Potentially, but kind of an easy choice, too.
