I was well into my mid-twenties before I realized this

Screw the people who act fake in front of eachother, if you don't like me, tell me

How bout we just be nice and genuine with the people we care about

I am a woman and my friends and I socialize like guys, apparently.

If I compliment someone I mean it. Otherwise I'll just be quiet.

I can't be fake, it just doesn't work for me. I'm not mean at all but I won't compliment someone if I don't mean it.

I mean my compliments.

I don't actually know any women who socialize by falsely complimenting each other. EVERYONE I know socializes through insults. I have seen it on TV once though, so I guess it could be a thing.

Fuck both of these, my friends and I socialise by having fun, we love and respect each other and tell each other straight up, real friendship doesn't have time for this bullshit, were too busy having a great time. Shove your gendered shit up your bum.
