Look, I've also had bad experiences with women and been tempted by misogynism. And yet, my best friend is female and she's great. And yes, I've also met terrible women. Great discovery here, women are also people! Irony aside, opening yourself to roughly 50% of the world's population surely will not hurt you, and women tend to have different points of view than men, if only because of social expectations, so there's that too.
Or it just doesn't.
