People are different; it's no profound secret. And so, from time to time, we make wrong assumptions about each other based on our experiences, beliefs, and values.
Today, instead of focusing on the overly broad topic of wrong assumptions, let's make it a little less niche and just talk about what wrong things men believed about women until they were proven wrong. Even with this narrowing, it's still a rather broad topic, which only means that we have plenty of interesting takes to read today. So, let's jump in!

That women are not as sexual or as interested in [intercourse] as men are.
Most women pretend to be more vanilla than they actually are in order to avoid judgement, especially in some cultures or countries, but rest assured we can be just as filthy minded (if not worse) than men.

That we don't crave [intercourse] as much as they do. I'm 40 and ravenous. I see you in those gray sweats.

That all women are gold diggers and just into material stuff and will cheat on you. There are women out there but there that do these things but there’s WAY more that don’t. You’re just not looking for the right woman.

Pretty much any assumption that by nature of being specifically not male, we are intrinsically a particular way. We're just people. We have all the same exact feelings, impulses, struggles, etc.
