That's generically "work", nothing to do with what you actually do
and a measure of a person's empathy. It's got cock all to do with what they do for a job. To suggest, for instance, that I would need to be a solicitor to "understand" how a solicitors day went or to understand that they might need to work long hours is rubbish, swipe. You stopped seeing those two guys because they were too selfish, not because their jobs prevented them from "understanding"

To put it another way
there are probably less than 50 people in this country that would understand a lot of the research I do, or at least be able to have a conversation about it. Do I have to go out with one of them, then? 'cos they're mostly men and despite Monty's fervent wishes, I'm not that mad for the cock.

To put it a further different way
constantly banging on about the same old tired stereotypes makes you look like a tit.

are you abusing me or swipe, here?

I find this "all men are the same" tripe
really quite offensive.

Indeed.
It's more that "all men are indeed the same if you constantly insist on chasing after the same men"

Those with even half a wit should be able to see this.

It doesn't even have to be the same men.
I used to have the 'ability' to bring out the same behaviour in men that seemed very different, but it never led me to think they're all the same. I'm sure she's kidding, a bit.

If I thought she was, I wouldn't have blown up.
