No, it definitely has a lot to do with gender.
More often than not, men will own up to the dirt they do, women will deny it till the death, and when they can no longer deny it, they'll justify it because they have zero self accountability. They can never admit when they're wrong. You have a lot of women out here, for example, who run around doing hoe shyt, but god forbid anyone call them a hoe. Dude earlier put it best, they want the respect of men, but have the accountability of children. They go around doing shyt no one should respect, and still think they're entitled to it. Sorry, doesn't work that way
