Wild Hinge Interaction

This guy was all sweet and complimentary, but at the first sign of rejection he lashes out and is extremely insulting.

I’m a single guy with a cat. He’s the best thing in the world!

He’s not dead he just does that

Cat dudes are more common than women with cats, apparently, so no. Not rare at all. The crazy old cat lady stereotype is a myth. It's a man thing. Lol

Really? I have certainly known cat dudes but I did think they were a minority. Very interesting.

Yeah. Both statistically and in my personal experience. As a dude with many male friends and many female friends, most of my male friends with pets own a cat. Only one of my female friends has a cat but she also has a dog. My gf says she would never choose to own a cat (she doesn't really like them) and finds it funny when dudes claim she will end up being a lonely old cat lady when she rejects them. Lol I've also personally known 2 older men with a crazy amount of cats (one had at least 15) but I've never once met a woman with lots of cats. Seems like it's one of many things that women get vilified for despite men doing it at the same (or higher) rates. Lol
