I actually hit this point a few months ago. I teach English for Bimbo (hilarious title for this) which is an international bakery and my most difficult students are women.

I'm exactly the same way -- I'm amicable, I can girl talk, I'm comfortable in the company of women and I'm not socially awkward in any way.

I had a group quit on me right before Christmas, and I shite you not: Because I told them to practice English at home.

Of course, this entire class was female -- and they literally thought learning a language was going to be as easy as speaking it for 3 hours a week with me and nothing more.

Don't even get me started on the schizophrenic dating process I've had in the past few months.

I don't hate women, but it's coming to the point where I don't enjoy their company.

Im a member of this club. Worst boss I ever had was a woman. She got accolades for her job despite the fact that me and another dude(who really should have gotten the credit) did her work. She was incompetent and bad with people.

Good way of saying it. I treat everyone I come into contact with via work with respect and kindness. I learned this over the years that it is the basic starting point for a good negotiation. So everybody gets that from me until they don't reciprocate. I've gotten to where I walk around quietly expecting the worst from women, both professionally and personally.
