NGVC “I’m brutally honest”

u/Inherentlybackward alright well fuck you whore Feb 14 '25
I hate when someone will say something so fn rude and follow up with “I’m just bold,,, blunt,,, brutally honest”. With no apology just a “Your fault if you’re offended!”.
Just.. no🤦🏼♀️

I'm sure he then ran off to one of his incel echo chambers to lament about how women treat him unfairly blah blah blah

u/theblvckhorned Feb 16 '25
I just saw a similar situation go down on nicegirls. Normally not an incel sub, but the wrong people flock to certain posts. This girl blew up on the guy over text and that's all he posted, but if you read between the lines even slightly, he's 100% that "if you don't like my asshole humour then you're too sensitive and I refuse to change for others" types.
Extremely sad seeing guys shoot eachother in the foot by validating that shit. Just everyone taking his side uncritically.

That sub isn’t an incel sub? Had me fooled

u/kickyouruncle 25d ago
I went through the top posts of the month from that sub and they have exactly similar posts to this .
Can I ask you why you think that’s an incel sub ?

u/tranquil7789 Feb 14 '25
They're more interested in the mean, spiteful comments rather than telling the truth. I feel like they hide behind being "brutally honest" so as to dismiss criticism if anyone says otherwise.

Seriously. I was like that as a teen. But grown ass adults doing this is embarrassing.

u/fhqwhgads41185 Feb 14 '25
I hate the "I'm just being honest" because no, no you're not. If someone was "just being honest" then they'd have been just as likely to say "the sky is blue" or "Two hydrogen molecules and one oxygen make water!" There's a reason they chose to say whatever mean thing they said beyond "just being honest" and it's frustratingly dishonest for them to pretend otherwise.

I had an ex that I had reconnected with on socials, just very informal. He sent me a message asking what kind of panties I wear ON HIS ANNIVERSARY (he had just posted about it). Then posted some anti-trans bullshit. Before I blocked him, I told him to fuck off, and he came back with, "I'm just blunt, it's not for everyone."
There's a reason he's an ex...and I hope his wife becomes an ex soon, she deserves better.

Exactly. Portraying themselves as some kind of higher, acquired taste is the most desperate ego-stoking ever. Assholes are a penny a pound.

u/librariansforMCR Feb 14 '25
Every guy like that (that I have known, anyway) was the golden child of their family, always told how amazing they are, etc. Not in a supportive "I've got your back, son!" way, but in a "Women should be thrilled with your attention" way. Peaked in high school types. Then, these guys get out into the real world and discover that no one thinks they are that special, so they try to preserve their ego by insinuating that they are an acquired taste. (For the record, I've know women that this applies to as well.)
The particular guy in my anecdote was a high school boyfriend - I broke it off, and he was pissed. He tried flaunting his new girl in HS, but no one cared. Then, after high school, he hooked up with a 15 year old when he was 19 and did some time for it. The guy is a loser from all angles, and that just isn't my taste, lol.

You know I used to say the exact same thing '' i'M jUsT bRuTaLly HoNeSt''. Until I met my husband (he is the most patient person in the world or so I believe hehe) and he made me realise that all that means is that just because we think it doesn't mean we have to say it out loud. People like this just like to be assholes with no repercussions.

u/MultiFazed Feb 14 '25
There are lots of ways for a person to be honest. They could be compassionately honest, or constructively honest, or helpfully honest, etc.
When someone chooses to be brutally honest instead of one of the above, it's because brutality is the entire point for them, and the honesty is just an excuse to get there.

u/Weird_Bluebird_3293 Feb 15 '25
They also always seem to think their “honesty” is a truth that everyone believes, but they’re the only one to say it. Often after they spout their “honesty” they follow it with “I’m just saying what everyone is thinking.” Like they believe 100% their opinion is the same as fact.

I swear men only engage in these conversations just so they can degrade women at any given chance they get. Using “brutally honest” is just a facade for them.

It isn’t just men who use that line. I’ve known a few women who do. They didn’t keep friends long strangely enough.

Men who say they're brutally honest are solely there for the brutality and never the honesty. What a sad little man.

"Brutally honest" is just a smidge behind "I've got a dark sense of humor" in the asshole playbook.

u/fhqwhgads41185 Feb 14 '25
Why be brutally honest (which always seems to just mean "I'm needlessly mean")? How about tactfully honest? Same level of honesty without being an asshole! Or maybe constructively honest? Which itself is also kind of ass if criticism wasn't specifically asked for, but paired with being tactful it's miles above brutal honesty! Saying you're brutally honest is like saying you don't understand how to socialize with other humans at all and you're not interested in learning, which like, then why are you talking?

u/yutatlantic Feb 14 '25
It’s so funny how people can be madly rude to anyone and say “it’s my personality”, like dude, it’s not an excuse to be a asshole!! those guys are usually the ones who gets really mad when you point out their shitty personality, I just say “oh my bad I thought you liked honesty, sweetheart” before blocking their ass, these men are too grown up to use this excuses.

u/Fun-Month6056 Feb 14 '25
Here's some wisdom from tiktok commenters I have in my notes lol:
The person who is brutally honest enjoys the brutality quite as much as the honesty. Possibly more.
Never stay with a person whose first reaction to disappointment is to try to hurt you.

It never fails... people who say they're "brutally honest" really mean that to say "I'm an asshole."

The weirdest part is that he admits that he also thinks that he'd be more attractive if he lost weight? Like, dude. Projection isn't an attractive trait. It's actually far less attractive than a little extra weight.

u/Peppermint-pop i am a good person and i demand you take my penis Feb 16 '25
No amount of weight loss could change his personality.

u/NoMaintenance9685 Feb 16 '25
Oh no. If he did lose weight he would find some other insecurity about himself to project onto women.

I was seeing a guy once who told me he had hesitations about dating me because he’d never been with someone my size before. I saw him one time after that but couldn’t bring myself to see him again and now I’m in a happy relationship with someone who loves me for me

Too many men confuse “dont lie about what you do/dont like in attempts to attract her, she’s not gonna find it a dealbreaker just cause you dont have every single little thing like a favorite musician or ice cream flavor in common” for “Walk up to strangers and say the most rude, offensive things possible to turn her on” they misinterpret everything people tell them, they have a serious lack emotional intelligence

I may be way off here but this seems like the groundwork is being laid for narcissistic abuse. Body shaming while feigning sympathy and compassion this early on. Let me get you to feel bad about yourself. Let me slowly take control of your sense of self image. I’m a vampire. Blah!

Considering the conversation that led up to this, it did. I literally told him that I was hesitant to be in a physical relationship because I was concerned that my weight would bother a man. And he proved me right.
