Dear
@VineyardsOfEngedi,
I understand your feelings. I don't think your hatred is coming from a place of self-righteousness or anything like that. It seems instead that you have been very hurt by some of men in your life. As women, we are very vulnerable to violence inflicted by men (whether it be sexual, physical, emotional, etc). It becomes very hard to love or trust men when it seems like all they're trying to do is take advantage of us. I might get some backlash for this, but I believe your feelings are valid. It is completely understandable that you may feel endangered or disgusted by men if you have had awful past experiences. I'm sure this is especially distressing to you because you have a daughter who is starting to date.
I have experienced a lot of hatred for men in my own life. I had an emotionally abusive father and my sister is a CSA survivor. Men have the power to hurt our bodies and minds and I hate that. A lot of the hatred you (and many other women) feel may be a result of trust issues. You don't trust men with yourself and you certainly don't trust them to treat your daughter right. There are some very wonderful men. There are also some really rotten men. I believe that, through prayer and trusting in Jesus, He will bless you with the ability to discern the intentions of men you encounter. We are women. Our bodies are a precious gift but they are also vulnerable. It makes perfect sense for you to have your guard up. But I believe trusting God will allow you to regain trust and love for some men. Not all of them, but the good ones.
