Can I be a guy, please?

Guys don't sit around picking shit apart because it might, horror of horrors, make them look like chicks. Do they? I mean, seriously, do they?

Do guys care that Sin City basically protrays them all as psychos, rapists, murders and bent coppers?

So far, I haven't heard this complaint.

Maybe it's just a more honorable profession.

eta: I mean, c'mon. Men on my flist! Tell me! Do you sit around gasping in horror anytime a man is portrayed as a stereotype? Do you pick apart movies and whine about how your characters aren't allowed to be well-rounded?

I really wanna know (can I go sexless? Wait. I like sex. Hrm. This could be a problem. Genderless? Is there any way to be from a certain group that doesn't act batshit insane?)

Then again, I suppose I don't get as annoyed by typical male stereotyping as I've been told I'm not a typical male. I'm one of them sensitive types who still has a ladyfriend regardless. Splendid. And in debates at college I usually take the female side as they make more sense.
