“Too funny. Happens all the time, especially lesbian women. I know 5 who used to be gay, 3 of them diehard, man haters.”
You’re pretty much on to it, really no comparison between men and women in this area. Women simply do it to PROVE that they are a true Feminist to the sisterhood, and that they can do JUST FINE, thank you, without men. Most women outgrow that thought pattern sometime around age 10, but a few carry it to adulthood...but even so, many still outgrow it later, as you said.
Guys - they’re simply messed up, typically by ‘trusted’ adults, as you said.
Thanks.
