More related to the OP,

I'm starting to tire a little of the attitude around her of "women say this, but really just mean this" and then dismiss what the female members here have to say on it.

The cold truth is fellas, blokes are no better, and no worse.
For a certain type of individual, it's easier to simplify classes if individuals down to a few traits or characteristics than deal with each example on an individual basis. This goes for both men (women are/want/do x y or z) and women (men are/want/do x y or z). The simple truth is that stating that some broad behaviour or characteristic is shared by the entire gender is patently absurd when it comes to these matters, but some folks simply need a way to filter, I guess.
